In order to determine whether N. caninum was associated with an outbreak of abortion on a high milk production dairy farm with excellent livestock and health control standards, blood was collected from all the animals in the herd to obtain … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 1 Feb 2019 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSerum Ornithine Carbamoyltransferase Activity and Correlation with Fatty Liver in Dairy Cows with Displaced AbomasumKen Onda, Reiichiro Sato, Yosuke Sasaki et al.Ornithine Carbamoyltransferase (OCT) is a hepatocyte-specific enzyme; elevated serum activity indicates liver damage. Displaced abomasum frequently occurs around the time of parturition in dairy cattle and is associated with fatty liver. We analyzed serum OCT activities to investigate the relationship between displaced abomasum and fatty liver. Lactating Holstein cows, 75 clinically healthy and 22 with displaced abomasum, were used. Serum … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 13 Jul 2016 · 7,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProduction and Quality in Dwarf Napier Grass Pasture Fertilized by Digested Effluent of Manure under Two-Years of Dairy Cow-Grazing in Warm Regions of JapanHadijah Hasyim, Ahmad Wadi, Yasuyuki Ishii et al.Dwarf Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum) pasture is suitable for beef cow grazing in warm regions of Japan, while it is not assessed for the suitability by a herd of dairy cows in the region. This study was conducted to determine the effects of Digested Effluent (DE) application on herbage yield and quality, Herbage Consumption (HC) and Dry Matter Intake (DMI) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 21 May 2016 · 8,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effects of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis on Milk Fatty Acid Profile in Dairy CattleC. Mitchell, O. ALZahal, M.M. Or-Rashid et al.The objective of this experiment was to examine the effect of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) on milk fatty acid (FA) profiles with emphasis on odd-chain and branched-chain FA. Sixteen multiparous Holstein dairy cows (618±35 kg of body weight, 221±32 days in milk) were used in a randomized complete-block design. During week 1, all cows received a high-forage diet (90% chopped … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2016 · 7,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInclusion of Molasses or Glucose Syrup in Starter Concentrate for Dairy Calves: Effects on Diarrheic CalvesMarcelo Cezar Soares, Carlos Eduardo Oltramari, Marília Ribeiro de Paula et al.Severity of metabolic acidosis and other clinical signs in diarrheic dairy calves fed a starter concentrate containing molasses or glucose syrup as a replacement for corn were evaluated. Thirty-two calves were blocked according to birth weight and were divided into four treatments according to starter concentrate composition: (1) Control, starter concentrate based on corn; (2) 5% of molasses as a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2016 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Inclusion of Albizia saman Pods in the Diet on the Performances of Dairy CowsMin Aung, Yin Yin Kyawt, Moe Thida Htun et al.Ruminants can achieve high productivity when the diet includes concentrates; however these are often expensive due to competition with humans and mono-gastric animals. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of partial inclusion of Albizia saman pods (ASP) in a Commercial Concentrate (CC) on the performances of dairy cows. Twelve cross-bred Holstein Friesian cows (472±13 kg) in the 12th … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2015 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite

E. Voelz, D. K. Hardin, C. O. LemleyThe objective was to determine whether maternal nutritional status and milk production during early gestation influenced or were correlated with parameters of the calf at birth and at 1 month of age. From parturition until 90 days pregnant, blood samples were collected every 14 days in dairy cows and plasma was assayed for concentrations of glucose and β-Hydroxybutyrate (BHBA). Calves … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTRANSCRIPTOMIC CHANGES IN RUMINAL TISSUE INDUCED BY THE PERIPARTURIENT TRANSITION IN DAIRY COWSLouis Dionissopoulos, Ousama AlZahal, Michael Alexander Steele et al.To understand how the capacity for fat metabolism (uptake, synthesis, modification) changes in rumen epithelia immediately before and after onset of lactation in dairy cows, rumen fluid Short Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA) concentrations and mRNA expression profiles of rumen epithelia was determined in twelve Holstein dairy cows at three weeks prior to calving (wk -3, n = 12), one week … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2014 · 7,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFlow Cytometry Baseline on Peripheral Leukocyte Cell Profiles for Dairy Goat KidsDarcy M. Fletcher, Megan B. Vogt, Hannah E. Pirner et al.Small ruminants, like goats, would make excellent animal models for not only infectious diseases in large ruminants but also analogous diseases in humans, such as human tuberculosis, Crohn’s disease, melioidosis and brucellosis. The main disadvantage for the small ruminant model is the lack of sufficient baseline data on normal, healthy goat kids. Furthermore, most reagents (antibodies and the like) were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 26 Sep 2013 · 7,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePathomorphological Findings of White Line Disease with Digital and Inner Organ Infections in Culling Dairy CowsMohsen Nouri, Iradj Nowrouzian, Seyyed Hossein Marjanmehr et al.The aim of this study was to investigate pathomorphological findings of white line disease in culling lame cows, with special reference to the lesions and their distribution. The most prominent pathomorphologic findings of the claw with white line disease included extensor process entheseophyte (75.0%), flexor tuberisity entheseophyte (37.5%) and abaxial margin bone absorption (68.7%).
