Heat stress is a major constraint to dairy productivity in tropical regions, where environmental conditions frequently exceed thermoneutral thresholds. The primary objective of this study was to quantify heat-related milk yield losses and estimate genetic parameters for thermotolerance in Brazilian&#x...
The inappropriate use of synthetic chemical acaricides for tick management has contributed to the selection of acaricideresistant tick strains, thereby stimulating the search for alternative and effective tick control strategies. Among these, the use of essential oils (EOs) derived from plants&#x...
Milk and dairy products are widely recognized for their nutritional contributions, providing bioavailable calcium, protein, and micronutrients essential for human health, while also playing a significant socio-economic role in many countries. Food-Based Dietary Guidelines (FBDGs) serve as policy instrument...
Social media has become a privileged space for the circulation of information on various topics, exerting a growing influence on individual and collective perceptions. In this environment, users often resort to cognitive heuristics, i.e., mental shortcuts that simplify judgments and decisions,&#x...
Milk and dairy products are traditionally recognized for their nutritional and health benefits, yet little is known about how consumers perceive them. Understanding consumer attitudes, beliefs, and associations is crucial, as such perceptions influence purchasing decisions, acceptance, and consumption ...
O carrapato bovino desencadeia a diminuição da rentabilidade na pecuária. Animais Bos taurus taurus possuem maior suscetibilidade ao parasitismo do que Bos taurus indicus, refletida por variações imunogenéticas e de intensidade da resposta inflamatória cutânea. Dessa forma, o presente estudo aval...
A study was carried out to verify the effects of PEG-6000-induced osmotic shock on Italian ryegrass physiological processes and protein profiles determined by the microfluidic electrophoresis technique towards improving knowledge on the behavior of the species under drought. Sensitivity to osmoti...
Com a maior competitividade no mercado e crescente disponibilidade de produtos, entender a percepção do consumidor emerge como um diferencial. Além disso, ao entender as dores do consumidor, é possível identificar pontos de melhoria e oportunidades, principalmente para o setor lácteo. Assim,...
A suplementação com nitrato de cálcio (Ca(NO3)2) tem se mostrado uma alternativa para reduzir as emissões de metano entérico em bovinos. Este estudo avaliou os efeitos de diferentes níveis de nitrato de cálcio sobre parâmetros hematológicos e concentração de meta-hemoglobina em bovinos ...
Para ampliar o uso da inseminação artificial (IA) são demandadas inovações que reduzam as trabalhosas tarefas de identificação do estro e separação das fêmeas antes da IA. Este estudo testou um processo que dispensa aquelas tarefas por meio da aplicação de três inseminações artific...
