Risk factors for resumption of postpartum estrous cycles and embryonic survival in lactating dairy cows

The objectives of this study were to evaluate factors associated with resumption of postpartum estrous cycles and embryonic survival in lactating dairy cows. Holstein cows, 6396 from four dairy farms were evaluated to determine the relationships among parity, body condition score (BCS) at calving and at AI, season of year when cows calved, and milk yield on resumption of postpartum estrous cycles by 65 days postpartum, and all the previous variables, estrual or anestrus and AI protocol on conception rates and embryonic survival at the first postpartum insemination. read more >

Progesterone concentration, follicular development and induction of cyclicity in dairy cows receiving intravaginal progesterone inserts

Objectives were to evaluate progesterone concentrations after cows had initiated estrous cycles following calving and induction of estrous cycles in postpartum anovular high-producing Holstein dairy cows treated with controlled internal drug releasing (CIDR). read more >

Characterization of the Immune Response in the Placenta of Cattle Experimentally Infected with Neospora caninum in Early Gestation

A serial examination of three groups of cattle infected intravenously (iv) (Group 1, n=8) or subcutaneously (sc) (Group 2, n=8) with live Neospora caninum tachyzoites or with VERO cells (Group 3, n=8) at 70 days’ gestation was carried out and the nature of the inflammatory responses in the placenta and the presence of parasite antigen were analysed. read more >
