Methane represents an energetic loss to the animal, therefore, reducing enteric CH4 emissions is not only environmentally favourable, but can also improve feed conversion efficiency in ruminants if production is not compromised. To date, nutritional manipulation has been a promising and wide...
Este estudo objetivou avaliar a contribuição de progênies de touros da raça Holandesa para a predição de valores genéticos de touros da raça Girolando utilizando-se registros de produção de leite da primeira lactação obtidos entre 1992 e 2008. Depois de editados, 54.945 registros d...
O experimento foi realizado na Embrapa Gado de Leite (Coronel Pacheco, MG) em delineamento Quadrado Latino 4 x 4, objetivando avaliar o perfil de ácidos graxos (AG) do leite de 16 vacas Holandês x Gir em lactação sob pastejo em Brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandu suplementada...
O experimento foi realizado na Embrapa Gado de Leite (Coronel Pacheco, MG), em delineamento Quadrado Latino 4 x 4, com o objetivo de avaliar índices de qualidade nutricional da gordura do leite de vacas Holandês x Gir (n = 16) sob pastejo em Brachiaria brizantha cv. ...
COVID-19 continues to be a global health concern beyond the pandemic phase. Bovine colostrum, naturally enriched in immunoglobulins, particularly IgG, offers a promising platform for passive immunization against SARS-CoV-2. Immunization of cows in the final third of gestation can induce neutraliz...
Serological methods are valuable diagnostic tools for bovine brucellosis, a zoonotic infectious disease with a worldwide distribution. Currently employed diagnostic methods utilize crude bacterial extract or regions of LPS, a molecule that can exhibit cross-reactions with other infectious agents. The&...
Obesity is a chronic low-grade inflammatory condition associated with increased thrombotic risk. Vitamin D deficiency is frequently observed as a factor that aggravates the inflammatory and procoagulant profile in obese individuals. Our aim was to investigate the influence of vitamin D on&#x...
The NIBDAF is a biocompatible immunomodulatory target-delivery system designed to enhance immune responses without inducing cytotoxicity (intellectual property protection in progress). The use of tick-derived immunogens encapsulated in NIBDAF is a promising strategy for modulating immune responses against ...
Long COVID is a chronic condition that may develop after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Symptoms range from mild to severe, including respiratory, neurological and thrombotic complications, and lasting weeks, months or years. Long-term effects could result in disabilities, and to understand the mechanisms...
Hyperimmune bovine colostrum has emerged as a scalable and safe source of neutralizing antibodies for passive mucosal immunization. The quality and persistence of antibody responses are influenced by the choice of adjuvants. A phagocyte target delivery immunomodulatory nanosystem (NIBDAF; ongoing ...
