From 384 faecal and liver samples tasted, a prevalence of 43.23% and 90.88% was found respectively. There was also an association ( p < 0.05 ) among age and BCS groups of bovine fasciolosis prevalence. According to the intensity of pathological lesions in affected livers, 60 (61.89%) constituted severely affected; the rest, 100 (28.65%) and 33 (9.46%) were moderately and lightly affected respectively. The number of flukes recovered in moderately affected livers was higher (Mean = 90.84) than in either severely (Mean = 33.17) or lightly (Mean = 47.33) affected livers. Species identification revealed that Fasciola hepatica was more prevalent (36.10%) than Fasciola gigantica (1.72%), mixed (1.43%) and unidentified (immature) fluke (3.72%). The average economic loss because of liver condemnation was 13,268,480 Ethiopian Birr (698,341.05 USD) per annum, indicating that the disease has high economic importance. It is therefore concluded that fasciolosis causes significant losses to farmers, butchers and consumers. Finally, the abattoir based prevalence recorded in the study area and the loss incurred suggest that a detailed epidemiological study as well as assessment of the overall economic loss due to fasciolosis is required to implement systematic disease-prevention and control methods.

Results obtained by processing data of 1476 cows, managed in 935 small scale farms, pointed out that current calving interval significantly effects on milk production for first three lactations (p<0.05). Preceding calving interval affected 305 day milk yield (p<0.05) in second lactation only. Linear regression model accounted for 20-25 % of the total variance of 305 day milk yield. Extension of calving interval over 420, 430, 450 days for first, second and third lactations respectively, did not increase milk production when converted to 305 day lactation. Stochastic relations between calving interval and calving age and month are moderated. Values of Pierson’s correlation coefficients ranged 0.38 to 0.69. Adjustment of milk production in order to reduce effect of calving interval on total phenotypic variance of milk yield is valid for first lactation only. Adjustment of 305 day milk yield for second and third lactations in order to reduce effects of factors “calving age and month” brings about, at the same time, elimination of calving interval effect. The genetic vareation of milk and fat yields in lactations using univariate analyses were larger in comparison with other lactations. This might be caused by factors such as environmental effects and other factors that do not influence the different lactations.","PeriodicalId":17430,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Advances","volume":"53 1","pages":"756-762"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81234403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to determine of seroprevalence of leptospirosis among the aborted ewes and in the same time, detection of bacterial DNA in aborted fetal tissues by the PCR protocol. A total number of 70 aborted fetuses and related placentas were submitted to the large animal clinic at the University of Tabriz, from October 2010 to March 2011.Tissue samples were collected from several fetal organs including liver, brain, kidney, lung, spleen, heart, stomach fluid and placenta, then separately pulverized under liquid nitrogen and finally stored at -20°C until DNA extraction. DNA extraction from frozen tissues samples was performed using a commercial kit (AccuPrep Genomic DNA Extraction Kit, Bioneer, S. Korea) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Of 70 submissions, 6(8/57%) samples were diagnosed positive to the leptospira Interrogans by the PCR. In contrast 7(10%) out of 76 dam’s sera were diagnosed as positive to leptospirosis by the microscopic agglutination test (MAT). One out of 70 animals was seropositive to serovar canicula, two animals to serovar pomona, two animals to grippotyphosa, one animal to serovars: grippotyphosa, pomona, hardjo and one animal to serovars: grippotyphosa, pomona, icterohaemorrhagiae.
