“…This may be due to the method of application; Sutherland et al [14] reported that spraying liquid nitrogen directly onto the horn bud site had a 19% and 33% success rate at preventing horn and scur growth when applied for 15 or 10 s respectively. Similarly, Bengtsson et al [13] found that applying liquid nitrogen using a cryoprobe was less efficacious at preventing horn development in calves than applying liquid nitrogen directly onto the skin. Therefore, it does not appear that the method of cryosurgery used in the present study caused sufficient destruction of the horn bud cells to prevent scur/horn development.…”

“…One alternative is to select for polled dairy cattle which would ultimately negate the need to disbud calves; however, genetic companies first need to make greater advancements in high quality polled sires to encourage adoption of this practice by industry [10]. Two novel methods of disbudding calves have been described in the literature-clove oil injected into the horn bud region [9,11,12] and cryosurgery [13,14]. At high concentrations, eugenol the active ingredient of clove oil, can cause cellular necrosis [15,16].…”

“…A descorna de bezerros previne o crescimento do corno, destruindo o córion, existem diversas técnicas para esse procedimento, destacando-se a utilização de pasta caustica, descorna por calor, por frio e a guilhotina (BENGTSSON et al, 1996;ESPINOZA et al, 2013;FRACCARO et al, 2013), porém, as técnicas mais utilizadas são a cauterização por pasta química (pasta de hidróxido de sódio ou cálcio) ou por calor (ferro quente) (VICKERS et al, 2005;STIWELL et al, 2008;STOCK et al, 2013). A utilização da pasta química causa necrose local e pode gerar complicações no procedimento, por essa razão a técnica de cauterização é a mais utilizada em todo o mundo (KLING-EVEILLARD et al, 2009;VASSEUR et al, 2010;GOTTARDO et al, 2011, CARDOSO et al, 2013, tornando-se, portanto, um dos principais fatores da ocorrência de queimaduras em bezerros.…”
