Q fever is a zoonotic disease that has been associated with reproductive problems in animals. As there little epidemiological data regarding the distribution and risk factors of this disorder cattle, objective study was to evaluate prevalence Coxiella burnetii among dairy herds northwest Spain, determine on-farm its effects on performance. Bulk tank milk (BTM) samples were collected from 262 commercial A Coruña, Lugo, Pontevedra provinces. Data about location, mean age, herd management...
Targeted mastitis treatment concepts are the most scientifically validated approaches to comply with prudent use of antimicrobials. However, this approach is still a challenge for many farmers who often lack experience it. Another option more antibiotics in therapy could be initial an non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) non-severe mastitis. A randomized, multi-herd, non-inferiority study was carried out compare 2 treatments cases. The animals studied group were treated systemic...
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) is one of the main pathogens that affects ruminants worldwide, generating significant economic losses. Like other RNA viruses, BVDV characterized by a high genetic variability, emergence new variants, and increasing risk outbreaks. The last report on genotypes in France was 2008, since which there have been no information. goal this study to determine diversity strains currently circulating France. To aim, samples cattle were taken from different...
Control of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus types 1 and 2 (BVDV-1 BVDV-2) involves removing persistently infected animals from the herd, ensuring biosecurity level farms vaccination for prevention fetal infection. Given pestiviruses high genetic antigenic diversities, one challenge a BVDV vaccine is to provide broadest possible heterologous protection against most genotypes sub-genotypes. The Modified-Live Mucosiffa® vaccine, which contains BVDV-1 sub-genotype 1a (BVDV-1a) cytopathic Oregon C24...
The aim of this work was to test a surveillance protocol able detect extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-, cephalosporinase (AmpC)- and carbapenemase (CP)-producing gram-negative bacteria in three conveniently chosen dairy farms with known prior occurrences ESBL- CP-producing strains. applied monthly for year. At each visit, 10 healthy lactating cows were rectally swabbed, raw milk filters (RMFs) sampled two the farms. Bacterial isolation based on first screening step MacConkey agar...
Bulk tank milk (BTM) is an easy, inexpensive, and representative sample for detection of Coxiella burnetii infections (Q fever) in dairy herds using real-time PCR. PCR can be performed either initial herd screening or monitoring the effectiveness preventive measures. However, one major limitation under field conditions need to deliver BTM samples adequate condition (quickly, safely, refrigeration) a qualified laboratory. In addition, sending non-inactivated biological via normal mail may...
