The aim of this study is to determine the influence of EM stimulations on macro and micro element concentrations in the blood, to determine if changes in ion concentrations depends on their basal values and to determine the usefulness of this kind of stimulation in the maintenance of the blood macro and micro element levels in cows. 17 cows were included in the experimental group (affected by a unique EM stimulation protocol of three weeks duration) and 9 cows were included in the control group. Significantly higher (P<0.01) concentrations of Ca, P, Na and Cu and lower (P<0.05) concentrations of Zn were found in the experimental group after EM stimulation. Dynamic changes of macro and micro element concentrations were inversely proportional to their basalvalue before the beginning of the experiment which means that animals with lower basal concentrations had greater changes of value during stimulation. Dynamicchanges of Ca, P, Mg, Fe, K and Cu were more notable in the experimental group that was exposed to EM stimulation compared to the control group. However, dynamic changes of Na and Zn concentrations were identical in the experimental and control groups. Exposure of cows to EM stimulation had a positive effect at Ca and P concentrations and improved calcaemia and phosphatemia in all the exposed animals.

Rhipicephalus (Boophilus)microplusis an important vector transmitting hemoparasitesin cattle and is, therefore, the cause of significant loss to cattle production. The control of ticks with synthetic acaricides is partially successful. However, parasite resistance to these compoundshas been reported.This study aimedto evaluate the effects of water submersion on cattle ticks. Ticks were divided into three weight classes[small (3-10 mg),medium (10-30 mg)and large(>70 mg)].All ticks in the small weight class died after immersion in water for as little as 5 mins. Some ticks in the medium weight class died after immersion for10 and 15 minsbutnone in the largest weight class died at …

Mycoplasma bovis(M. bovis) is one of the most significant pathogens in cattle. The aim of this study was to develop a rapid real-time LAMP assay, specific for M. boviswith designed primers targeting the OPPD/F gene. The assay was tested for 1 h at 63°C. The results could be visualized by the addition of calceindye. Real-time LAMP was specific exclusively for M. boviswithout cross-reactivity with other bacteria. The sensitivity of the real-time LAMP was determined to be 2.29×10-3ng/μL of DNA and was 100 times higher than conventional PCR. Lamp assay was conducted on 65 clinical samples to test its usefulness and …

A 3-year-old female Golden Retriever was referred with weakness, tachypnea and dyspnea. An incomplete diaphragmatic silhouette, gas-filled small intestine and pleural effusion in the thoracic cavitywere revealed in radiographs, implying a diaphragmatic hernia. After laparotomy, the abdominalstructureswere gently retrieved into the abdomen and a defect of 2×7 cm2was found. The transverse colonwas used as an autologous tissue flap for the repair of the defect. There were no complications identified for 2 years after surgery. Thus, patching with the transverse colon can be considered as an alternative for treating a defect in patients with a diaphragmatic hernia.
