As one of the components of milk, milk-derived exosomes can carry and transmit important signaling molecules, thus mediating mother-child or interspecific information exchange, regulating a variety of physiological and pathological processes of newborn animals, including promoting the absorption...

The work is devoted to the study of the physiological mechanisms of adaptation of young horses of the Transbaikal breed. The object of research was horse colts and fillies at different age periods. It was found that colts at different age periods grew and developed more intensively compared to...

The aim of this study was to determine dynamic thiol-disulphide homeostasis (TDH) parameters and ischemia modified albumin (IMA) levels in calves with neonatal diarrhea and compare with healthy controls. A total of 50 calves were included in the study. There were 25 calves in both diarrhea and...

When asked to consider the core activities of a large animal practitioner, many would conjure up images of vets standing at the back end of a cow performing rectal palpation, or ultrasound for pregnancy diagnosis. However, the essential skill in any large animal practitioner's toolbox is the...

The importance of prompt evaluation and care of the newborn is essential for reducing neonatal mortality, which represents a major cause of loss in camelids. This study investigated the blood gases, acid-base and electrolyte profiles in healthy dromedary calves during the first 3 weeks of life,...

Prior to initiating any obstetrical intervention for anterior or posterior presentation, it is imperative to emphasize the need for a precise and accurate diagnosis of fetal viability and to select the most appropriate approach for assistance. In uncertain cases, diagnostic tools such as...

From newborn to 17.6 months, the absolute weight gain of young animals was 387 kg, the average daily weight gain was 717 g, the relative weight gain was 166%. At the age of 1 year, the live weight was 54% of 650 kg of full-aged cows, and the average daily weight gain was 860 g. The correlation...

Body core temperature (BCT) is an important characteristic for the vitality of pigs. Suboptimal BCT might indicate or lead to increased stress or diseases. Thermal imaging technologies offer the opportunity to determine BCT in a non-invasive, stress-free way, potentially reducing the manual effort. ...

The article presents the results of experimental studies of the effectiveness of the use of combined drugs of domestic production in the complex therapy of acute gastrointestinal pathology in newborn calves of the colostrum period. The therapeutic efficacy of various drug regimens used in mild and...

The objectives of this study were: (a) To report anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) serum concentrations in neonatal, pre and postpubertal female cats. (b) To establish the relationship between serum AMH with either age and estrous cycle (c) To correlate the total number of different ovarian follicle...
