Buffalo Genome Projects: Current Situation and Future Perspective in Improving Breeding Programs [PDF]
Buffaloes are farm animals that contribute to food security by providing high quality meat and milk. They can better tolerate the adverse effects of global climate change on their meat and milk production. Despite their advantages, buffaloes are heavily neglected animals with fewer studies compared to other farm animals, hence, the real potential of ...

Estimation of economic losses due to milk fever and efficiency gains if prevented: evidence from Haryana, India [PDF]
Calcium (Ca) requirement increases tenfold upon parturition in dairy cows & buffaloes and its deficiency leads to a condition called milk fever (MF). Estimation of losses is necessary to understand the depth of the problem and design preventive measures. How much is the economic loss due to MF? What will be the efficiency gain if MF is prevented at the

Validation of an LC-MS/MS method for the quantitation of phytosterols derived from Aloe vera gel
A method to quantitate five minor phytosterols named Aloe sterols identified from Aloe vera gel was validated using AVGP (Aloe vera gel powder) as the sample. To measure the Aloe sterols content, AVGP was extracted with chloroform/methanol (2:1, v/v) and

Investigation of the Cyprus donkey milk bacterial diversity by 16SrDNA high-throughput sequencing in a Cyprus donkey farm [PDF]
The interest in milk originating from donkeys is growing worldwide due to its claimed functional and nutritional properties, especially for sensitive population groups, such as infants with cow milk protein allergy. The current study aimed to assess the microbiological quality of donkey milk produced in a donkey farm in Cyprus using cultured-based and ...

Daily milk yield correction factors: what are they? [PDF]
Cows are typically milked two or more times on a test day, but not all these milkings are sampled and weighed. Statistical methods have been proposed to estimate daily yields in dairy cows, centering on various yield correction factors in two broad categories.
