Journal ArticleDOI

Determinants of Estrous Behavior in Lactating Holstein Cows

TL;DR: It is indicated that the surface on which cows were observed had a profound effect on sexual behavior; however, postpartum interval, season of year, and milk yield were of minor importance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of somatotropin and/or equine chorionic gonadotropin on serum and follicular insulin-like growth factor I and insulin-like growth factor binding proteins in cattle.

TL;DR: Serum IGF-I was increased to a greater extent (percentage increase above 0 h) by rbST treatment in GRFi than in HSAi (176 +/- 16) cows (immunization by treatment, p < 0.01).
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacokinetics and endometrial tissue concentrations of enrofloxacin and the metabolite ciprofloxacin after i.v. administration of enrofloxacin to mares.

TL;DR: Endometrial tissue concentrations taken from the mares after dosing showed that enrofloxacin and ciprofloxin both penetrate this tissue adequately after systemic administration and would attain concentrations high enough in the tissue fluids to treat infections of the endometrium caused by susceptible bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retained placenta of Holstein cows treated with selenium and vitamin E.

TL;DR: Serum selenium for cows in each herd was elevated by supplementation, and the incidence of retained placenta was reduced in cows considered borderline deficient of selenum concentration in serum prior to supplementation, but the incidence was not reduced by treatment.
