Pre-Weaning Administration of a PGF2α Analogue (Cloprostenol) and Its Influence on Early Reproductive Indicators in Sows Under Commercial Farm Conditions. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Efficient reproductive management in commercial swine production requires minimising non‐productive days and ensuring rapid return to oestrus after weaning. The present study evaluated the effect of pre‐weaning administration of cloprostenol, a PGF2α analogue, on early reproductive indicators in sows under commercial farm conditions.

Silver and Copper Nanoparticles as Non-Antibiotic Therapy for Postpartum Endometritis in Dairy Cows. [PDF]
Postpartum dairy cows with clinical endometritis (purulent or mucopurulent vaginal discharge and >10% polymorphonuclear neutrophils [PMNs]) received intrauterine copper–silver nanoparticles, PGF2α, or no treatment. Clinical and cytological responses were assessed 14 days later to evaluate the efficacy of copper–silver nanoparticles as a non‐antibiotic ...

Parity and Season Affect the Performance of an Automated Activity Monitoring System for Estrus Detection in Grazing Girolando Cows. [PDF]
Accurate estrus detection in grazing crossbred dairy cows (Zebu × Taurine) remains challenging in Brazil, and automated activity monitoring (AAM) systems may be a viable alternative. This study evaluated the effects of management and environmental factors on AAM performance for estrus detection in grazing Girolando cows.
