Microbiome and Metabolome Analyses of Milk From Dairy Cows With Subclinical Streptococcus agalactiae Mastitis—Potential Biomarkers

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The microbial ecosystem in the udders of dairy cows directly influences the flavor and quality of milk. However, to our knowledge, no published research has analyzed the complex relationship between the udder microbiome and its associated metabolism in ...

Dairy cow monitoring by RFID [PDF]

Scientia Agricola, 2012
Dairy cows identification and monitoring on small cattle farms are usually based on the utilization of barcode technology. This kind of identification technology is unsuitable for dairy cows milking and feeding process automation. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is a better solution in this case.

A cow structural model for video analytics of cow health [PDF]

, 2020
In livestock farming, animal health directly influences productivity. For dairy cows, many health conditions can be evaluated by trained observers based on visual appearance and movement. However, to manually evaluate every cow in a commercial farm is expensive and impractical.

Thromboelastography in healthy dairy cows [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2014
Thromboelastography is a whole blood-based coagulation assay that can be used to investigate hypocoagulability and hypercoagulability, as seen with thromboembolic diseases and disseminated intravascular coagulation. Numerous coagulopathies due to different causes are reported in cows.

A heritable subset of the core rumen microbiome dictates dairy cow productivity and emissions

Science Advances, 2019
Cow genes dictate environmentally friendly microbiomes: a step towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions. A 1000-cow study across four European countries was undertaken to understand to what extent ruminant microbiomes can be controlled by the host ...

Invited review: A systematic review of the effects of early separation on dairy cow and calf health

Journal of Dairy Science, 2019
Concern from the public is growing regarding early cow-calf separation, yet proponents of this practice maintain that artificial rearing is critical for cow and calf health. Early separation is assumed to reduce the risk of transfer of pathogens from dam

Heat stress affects dairy cow health status through blood oxygen availability

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2023
Background Rises in global warming and extreme weather occurrence make the risk of heat stress (HS) induced by high ambient temperatures more likely in high-yielding dairy cows, resulting in low milk quality and yield.

The effect of dietary pioglitazone supplementation on milk yield, insulin sensitivity and GH–IGF‐I axis in Holstein dairy cows during the transition period

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 336-344, January 2023., 2023
The high‐yielding dairy cows suffer from insulin resistance during the periparturient period. Dietary supplementation of pioglitazone hydrochloride, an insulin‐resistance drug and synthetic agonist for PPRAγ, improved the insulin sensitivity index (RQICKI‐BHBA) in Holstein dairy cows during the transition period. Abstract Background High‐yielding dairy
