The aim of present study was to study the effect of post-ovulatory insemination on the subsequent embryonic loss, oestrous cycle length and vaginal discharge in sows. Ten Large White multiparous sows were divided into two groups. Group A sows were inseminated once at 15 h after ovulation. Thereafter, they were ovariohysterectomized on day 11 (n = 5, first day of standing oestrus = day 1) and fl...

Maedi Visna Virus (MVV) is the etiological agent of a systemic disease of sheep, which causes lesions in lungs, the central nervous system, joints, and mammary glands. It has been speculated that the association with Brucella ovis may lead to the venereal shedding of the virus. In this work, samples of epididymis from ten rams positive for MVV and infected experimentally with Brucella ovis, wer...

conclusions early diagnosis is required for the management of human myiasis. if we don’t properly recognize and treat ophthalmomyiasis, it can progress rapidly and can result in destruction of orbital tissues. the main treatment modality includes removal of the larvae and if necessary, surgical debridement. case presentation we describe a young male with wound and ocular myiasis due to lucilia ...

A study of the duration oestrus and estrous cycles in mares from Haflinger breed (HB) influence some factors was conducted. The records used for this were breeding registers State Stud farm Kabiuk near Shumen, covering a period 11 years (2009 to 2020). In included 15 with 110 estruses 22 cycles. With breed, average is 5.52 ± 0.26 days length cycle 24.21 1.13 days. year (P<0.001), month season (...

This study investigated the hypothesis that a reduction in submission rates at a resynchronised oestrus is not due to the resynchrony treatment involving intravaginal progesterone releasing devices (IVDs) and oestradiol benzoate (ODB) but is associated with artificial insemination (AI) at the first synchronised oestrus. In Experiment 1, cows were synchronised for first oestrus with IVDs, with O...

BACKGROUND Application of assisted reproductive technologies in buffaloes is limited to some extent by farmers' inability to detect oestrus because of its poor expression. The present study aimed at investigating reliability of a milk progesterone enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to assess the ovarian cyclicity during post partum, oestrus and post-breeding periods in water buffaloes. ...

Effect of free gossypol present in the cottonseed cakes was investigated using 12, Nili-Ravi dairy buffaloes randomly assigned to two equal groups i.e., A and B. Buffaloes in group. A were fed control ration and buffaloes in group B were fed cottonseed cake ration containing 5.88g free gossypol. Non­ significant differences were found between control and treated buffaloes in respect of occurren...

This study was conducted to determine the electrophoretic pattern of serum protein in goats infected withBabesia ovis. Serum total protein was calculated and serum electrophoresis from 15 goats naturally infectedwith B. ovis as well as same number of healthy goats was performed. Microscopic examination of Giemsastained peripheral blood smears revealed B. ovis infection. The parasitological diag...
