    The effect of buserelin injection 12 days after insemination on selected reproductive characteristics in cows
    (VETERINARNI A FARMACEUTICKA UNIVERZITA BRNO, 2011) Ataman, Mehmet B.; Erdem, Huseyin; Bulbul, Bulent; Umutlu, Seyit; Colak, Mehmet
    The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of buserelin injection on day 12 postinsemination on fertility in lactating dairy cattle. A total of 57 cows were assigned to two groups and four subgroups. In the treatment group, the cows were synchronized with PGF(2 alpha)-PGF(2 alpha) (group A) or GnRH-PGF(2 alpha) (group B) protocol, and buserelin was injected on day 12 postinsemination. Cows in the control group were synchronized with PGF(2 alpha)-PGF(2 alpha) (group C) or GnRH-PGF(2 alpha) (group D) protocol, saline solution was injected on day 12, and served as controls. Pregnancy rates on day 21 and 45 and embryonic death rates were 85.7%, 71.4% and 16.7%, 85.7%, 85.7% and 0.0%, 73.3%, 62.1% and 27.3% and 85.7%, 71.4% and 16.7% in groups A, B, C and D, respectively. There was no significant difference between synchronization protocols for pregnancy rates, and among groups A, B, C and D for pregnancy rates and embryonic death rates. Mean progesterone concentrations in pregnant cows in groups A and B were higher than that in groups C and D, respectively, on day 18 and 21 (p < 0.05). In conclusion, GnRH injection on day 12 postinsemination increased the plasma progesterone concentrations on day 18 and 21 postinsemination. However, it did not alter the pregnancy rates and prevent embryonic deaths.

    Ultrasonographic evaluation of age related influence on the teat canal and the effect of this influence on milk yield in Brown Swiss cows
    (NATL VETERINARY RESEARCH INST, 2008) Celik, Haci Ahmet; Aydin, Ibrahim; Colak, Mehmet; Sendag, Sait; Dinc, Dursun Ali
    A total of 400 teat canals were investigated with a linear array ultrasound probe. The teat canal was observed as a hyperechogenic line at the tip of the teat. Twenty percent of the examined teat canals showed a crooked course, whereas in 80%, a linear course was observed. There was no statistically significant difference among teats of crooked teat canal and lateral aspects of teats. The mean length of teat canal was found to be 1 1.51 +/- 0.01 min. It was demonstrated that the length of the teat canal and milk yield were affected by the animals' age. The teat canals were the shortest in young cows and these cows showed the highest milk yield. On the other hand, older cows with the longest teat canals showed the least milk yield. It was concluded that the ultrasonographic examination was effective in teat canal imaging and morphological assessment. The observation of the location of the canal within teats and its course was essential.
