Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) are an interesting sample for searching biomarkers with proteomic techniques because they easy to obtain and do not contain highly abundant, potentially masking proteins. Two groups of pigs (n = 56) were subjected mixing under farm conditions afterwards different management treatments: negative handling (NH) positive (PH). Serum PBMC samples collected at the beginning experiment one week after (t0) two months (t2). Brain areas slaughter...
<p>Abstract: An investigation was performed to determine whether high concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) at 70-98% in atmospheric air are a suitable alternative for stunning rabbits compared conventional approaches such as electronarcosis. Aversion the gas and efficacy causing prolonged unconsciousness death were studied total 480 by means behavioural parameters, physiological indicators (presence rhythmic breathing corneal reflex) electroencephalography...
The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is a bilateral chemosensory structure strongly involved in animal behaviour, thanks to its sensory epithelium (VNSE) that detects pheromones. Experimental VNO lesions can impair social, reproductive and maternal while feline spontaneous vomeronasalitis has been associated with aggression. This study aimed describe farm pigs explore association intraspecific behavioural alterations. Using 38 six-month-old pigs, the skin lesion score based on Welfare Quality®...
Slaughter is a crucial step in the meat production chain that could induce psychological stress on each animal, resulting physiological response can differ among individuals. The aim of this study was to investigate relationship between an animal's emotional state, subsequent at slaughter and cellular damage as effect. In all, 36 entire male pigs were reared experimental farm cognitive bias test used classify them into positive (PB) or negative (NB) groups depending their decision-making...
How housing and transport conditions may affect welfare in porcine production is a leading topic livestock research. This study investigated whether pigs present different neurological response to management ascertain living partially outdoors cope differently with road transport-associated stress. Twenty-four female were divided two groups: one indoors (ID, n = 12) the other housed combining indoor 4 hours per day of outdoor pasture (OD, 12). After month, set animals from each condition...
