Unilateral twin pregnancy: a non-infectious factor required for the etiological diagnosis of abortion in dairy herds
(J-STAGE, 2021)Twin pregnancies are classified into bilateral (one fetus in each uterine horn: 44%) and unilateral (both fetuses in the same uterine horn, right or left: 56%). The incidence of abortion during mid- to late gestation is ... -
Updated distribution and biogeography of amphibians and reptiles of Europe
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2014)A precise knowledge of the spatial distribution of taxa is essential for decision-making processes in land management and biodiversity conservation, both for present and under future global change scenarios. This is a key ... -
Urinary excretion of purine derivatives as an index of microbial protein synthesis in the camel (Camelus dromedarius)
(Cambridge University Press, 2004)Five experiments were carried out to extend knowledge of purine metabolism in the camel (Camelus dromedarius) and to establish a model to enable microbial protein outflow from the forestomachs to be estimated from the ... -
Urinary excretion of purine derivatives as an index of microbial-nitrogen intake in growing rabbits
(Cambridge University Press, 1998)Three experiments were carried out to establish a response model between intake and urinary excretion of purine compounds. In Expt 1 the relationship between the intake of purine bases (PB) and the excretion of total ... -
Urinary excretion of purine derivatives in Bos indicus 3 Bos taurus crossbred cattle
(Cambridge University Press, 2005)Four experiments were performed to study the kinetics of purine metabolism and urinary excretion in Zebu crossbred cattle. Fasting excretion was established in Expt 1, using eighteen male Bos indicus £ Bos taurus crossbred ... -
Using PRRSV-resilient sows improve performance in endemic infected farms with recurrent outbreaks
(MDPI, 2021)The selection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) resilient sows has been proposed as a strategy to control this disease. A discrete event-based simulation model was developed to mimic the outcome of ... -

(Red CONBIAND, 2016-12-15)La FAO establece que para la conservación y mantenimiento de los recursos zoogenéticos una de las primeras fases es la caracterización. Los índices zoométricos son relaciones entre distintas variables morfológicas cuantitativas ... -
Uterine serpin (SERPINA 14) correlates negatively with cytokine production at the foetal-maternal interface but not in the corpus luteum in pregnant dairy heifers experimentally infected with Neospora caninum
(Wiley, 2017-02-01)This study examines gene expression patterns in dairy heifers experimentally infected with N. caninum during on Day 110 of pregnancy with live foetuses at euthanasia, 42 days later. The study population was constituted of ... -
Vaccination is a suitable tool in the control of Aujeszky's disease outbreaks in pigs using a Population Dynamics P systems model
(MDPI, 2020)Aujeszky's disease is one of the main pig viral diseases and results in considerable economic losses in the pork production industry. The disease can be controlled using preventive measures such as improved stock management ... -
Validation of sheep rumen fluid frozen in liquid N as inoculum for in vitro gas production trials.
(Centre international de hautes études agronomiques méditerranéennes, 2011)The effect of freezing rumen fluid in liquid nitrogen for its use as inoculum for in vitro incubation was evaluated in a semi-continuous system. Inoculum was used immediately (RF) or frozen and then thawed and used (TW) ... -
