Microbiological and functional evaluation of an alternative device (OB®) for estrous synchronization in ewes

Abstract

The use of synthetic progestagens released by vaginal devices is an important tool to overcome the Palavras-chave: pessário intra-vaginal, CIDR ® , esponja, progestageno, vaginite, ovelha.

Efficacy of anti-microbial agents on vaginal microorganisms and reproductive performance of synchronized estrus ewes

“…However, two d after sponge removal the vaginal bacterial population returned to levels similar to those observed prior to their insertion in the control group. These results are in agreement with those observed by Martins et al [7], Amin [27] and Martins et al [29]. This reduction in the CFU may be due to the removal of the irritating agent (sponge, or vaginal device) and promoted by physiologically surprising through the increase in local immune response caused by the estrogenic effects during proestrus and estrus phases.…”

Isolation and identification of some aerobic bacterial flora from female genitalia in Goats in Babylon city

“…(1) Indicated that growth was observed 69 (57.98%) were positive, while 50(42.02%) were negative results from 119 total specimens. These results agree (9,11).…”

“…E.coli and streptococcus. pyogenes are the most common non-specific infections in goat ( 9). Thus, the purpose of conducting this study was carried out to determine the aerobic bacteria flora of apparently does from different parts of female genital system.…”

Medroxiprogesterona acetato para la elaboración de dispositivos intravaginales caseros usados en la sincronización del estro en ovinos de pelo: Evaluación de su eficacia, sus efectos secundarios y comparación con un dispositivo comercial en hatos de Costa Rica.

“…Los principales efectos secundarios fueron: enrojecimiento de la mucosa, secreción purulenta, aumento en el crecimiento de coliformes, infiltración de polimorfonucleares y, en menor grado, adherencias del dispositivo, lo que coincide con lo descrito por otros autores (Martins et al 2009;Manes et al 2010;Martins et al 2010, Gatti et al 2011Manes et al 2014). El 6,5% de las hembras tratadas presentaron adherencias, dato menor al 10% y 14% reportado por Martins et al (2010) y Espinoza et al (2003), respectivamente. Las esponjas comerciales utilizadas presentan menos problemas para su retiro, comparadas con las caseras, pues su diámetro era menor.…”

“…No obstante, en este trabajo se distribuyó el medicamento homogéneamente sobre la superficie de la matriz, coincidiendo con lo descrito por Espinoza et al (2003) y Martins et al (2010). De esta manera, se puede hacer que la hormona esté más próxima a la mucosa para mejorar su absorción.…”
