Effect of Intrauterine Infusion with Liquid Paraffin on Phagocytes Migrating to Mucus of External os of the Cervix in Cows

Abstract: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of intrauterine infusion with liquid paraffin (LP) on phagocytic migration into the uterus of cows. Smears of swab samples of the external os of the cervix and discharges collected inside the vagina were obtained in multiparous dairy cows (n = 10) that had been infused with 50 ml of LP (LP group: n = 5) or physiological saline (PS group: n = 5) on day 10 or 11 after ovulation (day 0: ovulation). The samples were collected for cytological examination 0 (… Show more

“…Furthermore, the number of neutrophils increased significantly in CE cows receiving LP compared with those injected with physiological saline 3, 4, 5 and 8 days post‐infusion. Moreover, monocytes augmented significantly 4, 6, and 24h after infusion (Lu et al, ). In our previous study, the number of neutrophils was higher, but not significantly, in CE cows injected with intrauterine paraffin than other treatment groups (cephapirin benzathine, PGF 2α and 50% dextrose solution) two weeks after the treatment (Makki et al, ).…”

“…A lower reproductive performance in LP group can be due to the mechanism of LP in the uterus. In the research conducted by Lu et al (), after the intrauterine infusion of liquid paraffin, phagocytes such as macrophages migrated into the uterus and ameliorated the uterine defence mechanisms during infection. Furthermore, the number of neutrophils increased significantly in CE cows receiving LP compared with those injected with physiological saline 3, 4, 5 and 8 days post‐infusion.…”

“…2005). Although studies aimed at evaluating the immediate response to endometrial physical stimulation are not available in the mare, studies in other species suggest that neutrophil migration into the uterine lumen begins 30 to 60 min after endometrial stimulation (Lu et al. 2011).…”

“…Mostly, the antibiotics of choice for intrauterine treatment are chlortetracycline [54] and ceftiofur hydrochloride [66] . Furthermore, peroxyacetic acid [67,68] , meta-cresol sulfonic acid (Lotagen®) [69] , ozone [70] , mixtures prepared from healing herbs (AV/RMI/45) [71] and Pelargonium sidoides extract (EPs 7630) [72] , proteolytic enzymes including chemotrypsin, trypsin and papain [73] , liquid paraffin [74] , hyperimmune sera produced against Arcanobacter pyogenes and Escherichia coli [75] , formo-sulphathiazole, the phytotherapeutic EucaComp® [76] and hypertonic dextrose solution (50%) are also used for intrauterine treatment [77] .…”
