Age-dependent changes in serum chemistry, mineral concentrations and complete blood cell count parameters in Holstein cattle
This study determined reference ranges for bovine serum chemistry and complete blood cell count (CBC) according to Holstein milking-cow age. Seventy-two healthy Holstein calves and cows (<1 week to milking age) were grouped: 1 (n = 7, <1 week), 2 (n = 10, 1 month), 3 (n = 13, 3 months), 4 (n = 13, 6 months), 5 (n = 10, 1 year, nulliparous), and 6 (n = 19, milking cows, parous). Fresh blood samples were obtained from the jugular vein between 10:00 and 12:00 AM in the winter; serum chemistry and haematologic profiles were assessed. Serum chemistry and CBC differed significantly by age. Age-related differences were obse...

Effect of postpartum drenching on plasma parameters of cows at a large-scale dairy farm
Acta Vet Hung. 2023 Nov 24. doi: 10.1556/004.2023.00921. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe aim of the present study was to explore the influence of postpartum drenching with a feed additive on the plasma concentration of biochemical parameters while factoring in prepartum rumination times (RT). One hundred and sixty-one cows were fitted with a Ruminact© HR-Tag approximately 5 days before calving. Drenching and control groups were established based on calving dates. Animals in the drenched group were treated three times (Day 1/day of calving/, Day 2, and Day 3 postpartum) using a feed additive containing calcium propionate...

The impact of retrieval method and breed on the motility and kinematic parameters of fresh and post-thaw ram epididymal spermatozoa
In conclusion, both collection methods were found suitable for REPS retrieval. The REPS from Racka exhibited better linear movement values than those from the Merino breed. The cryotolerance of REPS of both breeds was comparable.PMID:37999739 | DOI:10.1556/004.2023.00945 (Source: Acta Veterinaria Hungarica)

Optimal clinical dose of medetomidine for sedation of young cows during dehorning surgery
Acta Vet Hung. 2023 Nov 24. doi: 10.1556/004.2023.00919. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present paper reports on the clinical efficacy and optimal clinical dose of medetomidine for sedation of young cows during dehorning surgery. Medical records of 24 female Holstein cows that underwent dehorning surgery were used in this study. In four groups, the sedation of animals was carried out by one of the four intravenous treatments: 0.1 mg kg-1 xylazine (Xyl group, n = 6), 5.0 μg kg-1 medetomidine (5.0 Med group, n = 6), 10.0 μg kg-1 medetomidine (10.0 Med group, n = 6) or 20.0 μg kg-1 medetomidine (20.0 Med group, n = 6). ...
