“…The physiologic anemia of pregnancy, or pseudo-pregnancy anemia can be avoided by administering prophylactic iron to the dam. Early during pregnancy when a high level of fetal growth occurs, an increased metabolic rate and increased oxygen demand stimulate the release of erythropoietin by kidney tissue, resulting in an increase in the number of circulating red blood cells, hemoglobin and packed cell volume , Shakeri et al 2013, Yaqub et al 2013.…”

RESUMO.-[Análise hematológica comparativa de ovelhas Morada Nova e Santa Inês em todos os estágios reprodutivos.] A análise hematológica fornece informação confiável sobre a saúde dos animais. É uma variável importante na avaliação da capacidade adaptativa e produtiva das raças sob condições ambientais desfavoráveis. É uma avaliação que aliada a outros fatores genéticos, ambientais e de manejo pode se tornar cada vez mais útil para a sustentabilidade futura da agricultura convencional em um ambiente quente. A capacidade adaptativa é afetada por alguns fatores como raça, gestação e lactação. It is an important variable in the assessment of adaptive and productive capacity of breeds under unfavorable environmental conditions. It is an assessment that combined with other genetic and environmental factors and management can become useful for the future sustainability of mainstream agriculture in a hot environment. Adaptive capacity is affected by some factors such as breed, pregnancy and lactation. Therefore, hematological profile is an important indicator of animal health and production. The objective of this study was to perform the comparative hematological analysis of Santa Inês and Morada Nova breeds (native ewes from Brazil) in all different reproductive stages. Twenty Santa Ines and 20 Morada Nova sheep distributed in a completely randomized design in a split-plot arrangement over time were used. To obtain blood counts, blood samples were collected by jugular venipuncture every 14 days, always in the morning, before the animals were released into the pasture. The Morada Nova breed had higher hemoglobin and total leukocyte count than Santa Inês breed. Regarding the influence of pregnancy and puerperium on the eritrogram, there was an increment in red blood cell, hemoglobin and packed cell volume of both breeds in middle pregnancy. However, had a reduction in late pregnancy. There were a reestablishment of the blood cell counts during the puerperium period. It was verified an increase on neutrophil: lymphocyte ratio indicated that ewes in the late pregnancy, postpartum and puerperium were under stress conditions compared to others reproductive stages. The total plasma proteins also increased during this period to compensate for the high nutritional requirements of the fetus, and these levels remained high until the end of the puerperal phase, when the lambs were weaned. The pregnancy and puerperium influenced all erythrocyte indices and changed the total leukocyte count. perfil hematológico é um indicador importante da saúde e produção animal. O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar a análise hematológica comparativa de ovelhas Morada Nova e Santa Inês (ovelhas nativas do Brasil) em todos os está-gios reprodutivos. Foram utilizadas 20 ovelhas Santa Inês e 20 Morada Nova distribuídas em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em parcelas subdivididas e medidas repetidas no tempo. Para a análise do sangue, foram coletadas amostras por venopunção jugular a cada 14 dias, sempre colhidas pela manhã, antes que os anim...

“…Norouzian and Ghiasi (2012) reported that the performance of fattening lambs was not affected by feeding dried PBP by up to 30% of the diet DM. Shakeri et al (2012) included PBP silage by up to 18% of the diet for Holstein male calves and reported no adverse effects on the dry matter intake (DMI), growth performance, and blood parameters after a long-term feeding program. Several studies have shown that diets containing moderate levels of tannins lead to reduced degradation of proteins in the rumen followed by more essential amino acids absorbed in the small intestine (Min et al 2003;Frutos et al 2004).…”

“…Iran is considered to be the largest producer of pistachio worldwide, with an annual production of approximately 500,000 tons of fresh pistachio by-products (PBP; Shakeri et al 2012). While PBP is high in protein (158.2 g/kg) and ether extract (EE; 69.5 g/kg) and, hence, a valuable feed for ruminants (Behgar et al 2009), its nutritive value is subject to variation due to the dehulling process, pistachio cultivar, and growing conditions (Bagheripour et al 2008).…”

(2014) Effects of pistachio by-products in replacement of alfalfa hay on ruminal fermentation, blood metabolites, and milk fatty acid composition in Saanen dairy goats fed a diet containing fish oil, Journal of Applied Animal Research, 42:2,[186][187][188][189][190][191][192][193] The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of pistachio by-products (PBP) in replacement of alfalfa hay (AH) on ruminal fermentation, blood metabolites, and milk fatty acid composition in Saanen dairy goats fed a diet containing fish oil. For this purpose, 15 multiparous lactating Saanen goats (on day 25 postpartum, 38.159 1.2 kg) were randomly assigned to three treatment diets in a completely randomized design with five goats per treatment. The treatment consisted of feeding the following diets: (1) control (AH), (2) 30% PBP, and (3) 30% PBP 'polyethylene glycol (PEG, 1 g/Kg of dry matter [DM]). The experiment lasted 21 days, including 16 days of adaptation to the experimental diets followed by a five-day sampling period for determining milk yield and composition, dry matter intake (DMI), and blood metabolites. The results showed that DMI was affected (PB 0.05) by using PBP in the diets. The goats fed PBP had a lower (PB0.05) DMI than those in other treatments. No differences were observed in milk yield and composition among the dietary treatments. The goats fed PBP (with and without PEG) had higher (P B0.05) amounts of C16:0 and trans-C18:1 isomer in their milk fat than those fed AH. C24:0 was detected at higher (P B0.05) concentrations in goats fed AH than those in other treatments. Overall, different treatments had no significant effects on the concentrations of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in milk fat. Trans fatty acids (TFA) in milk fat exhibited higher (PB0.05) concentrations in PBP and PBP-PEG treatments than in AH. However, no differences were detected in the concentrations of short, medium, and long chain fatty acids among the treatments. No differences were observed in rumen pH among the treatments, while rumen ammonia-N concentrations were lower (P B0.01) in goats fed PBP than those in the other treatments. Treatments showed no differences with regard to blood metabolites (i.e., cholesterol, triglyceride, blood urea nitrogen, total protein, albumin, and glucose). These findings indicate that the inclusion of PBP in replacement of AH in the diet of dairy Saanen goats have no adverse effects on ruminal fermentation and blood metabolites. Moreover, PBP is capable of modifying the fatty acid profile of milk in dairy goat.

“…Its chemical composition, phenolic compounds and digestibility depend not only on the cultivar and kernel maturity but also on de-hulling and drying processes (Bohluli et al, 2009;Shakeri et al, 2013). It has been established that PBP contains 9.2% to 12% CP, 32% to 37% NDF and 21% to 26% ADF on a dry matter (DM) basis (Bagheripour et al, 2008;Mokhtarpour et al, 2012).…”

“…According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation (2012), Iran is the greatest producer of pistachio worldwide and has an annual production of about 500 000 tons of fresh pistachio by-product (PBP) (Shakeri et al, 2013). PBP are produced after de-hulling (1.25 to -2 kg/kg dry pistachio) and contain high levels of pistachio epicarp and, to a lesser extent, peduncles, leaves, mesocarp, kernel and cluster (Shakeri and Fazaeli, 2007;Bohluli et al, 2009).…”

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of pistachio by-product silage (PBPS) as a partial replacement for corn silage (CS) on chewing activity, nutrients digestibility and ruminal fermentation parameters in Holstein male calves over a 6-month assay. For this purpose, 24 Holstein male calves (4 to 5 months of age and 155.6 ± 13.5 kg BW) were randomly assigned to one of the four dietary treatments (n = 6). In these treatments, CS was substituted with different levels of PBPS (0%, 6%, 12% and 18% of dry matter (DM)). Nutrient digestibility was measured at the end of the experimental period (days 168 to 170). Ruminal fermentation parameters were determined on days 90 and 180 and chewing activity was determined on days 15 of the 3 rd and 6 th month of the experiment. Results showed that calves fed rations containing 6% PBPS spent more time ruminating ( P < 0.05) than the control group on the 3 rd and 6 th months. Feeding PBPS was found to have no effects on DM, organic matter (OM), ether extract or ash digestibility, but apparent digestibility of CP, NDF om and ADF om linearly decreased ( P < 0.01) with increasing substitutions. On days 90 and 180, ruminal concentrations of volatile fatty acids and NH 3 -N linearly decreased ( P < 0.01) with increasing levels of PBPS in the diets; however, ruminal pH and molar proportions of acetate, propionate and butyrate were similar across the treatments. It was concluded that partial substitution of CS with PBPS (6% or 12%) would have no adverse effects on nutrient digestibility, total chewing activity and ruminal fermentation parameters.
