چکیده مقاله :
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of replacing progesterone injections by progesterone vaginal inserts on productive and reproductive parameters of lactating cows with reproductive problems after prolonged periods of heat stress. Fifteen Holstein cows were randomly assigned to one of three treatments: 1) treated with two progesterone vaginal inserts (P4-INS); 2) treated with progesterone and estradiol via injections (P4-INJ) and 3) control, cows with gestation and parturition normally. All cows were subjected to a Presynch-Co-Synch timed artificial insemination protocol and then inseminated at 71 d in milk. Concentration of P4 in (P4-INS) and (P4-INJ) cows during the first 7 d of induction of lactation was similar (P>0.05) and then increased linearly in both groups. Adjusted milk yield, total milk yield, and average daily milk yield were similar (P>0.05) in treated cows, but cows from (P4-INJ) group produced less milk (P<0.05) than control cows. Days in milk and peak milk yield were similar (P>0.05) among all groups. Percentage of milk fat and protein, as well as days to peak milk yield were higher (P<0.05) in both treated groups compared to control. Body condition score, service per conception, conception to first service, total conception, days open and culling rate at the end of lactation were similar (P>0.05) among treatments. Progesterone administration by injection or by vaginal insertion resulted in similar production and reproduction parameters of dairy cattle with induced lactation.
هدف از این مطالعه بررسی اثر جایگزینی تزریق پروژسترون توسط پروژسترون واژینال در پارامترهای تولیدی و تولید مثلی گاوهای با مشکلات باروری پس از دورههای طولانی مدت از تنش گرمایی بود. پانزده گاو هلشتاین به طور تصادفی به یکی از سه گروه تیماری اختصاص داده شدند: 1) تحت درمان با دو درج واژنی پروژسترون (P4-INS)، 2) تحت درمان با پروژسترون و استرادیول از طریق تزریق (P4-INJ) و 3) کنترل، گاو با آبستنی و زایمان معمول. همه گاوها با دستورالعمل زمانی تلقیح مصنوعیPresynch-Co-Synch تیمار شدند و پس از آن در 71 روز شیردهی تلقیح شدند. غلظت P4 در (P4-INS) و (P4-INJ) گاو در طول 7 روز اول القاء شیردهی مشابه بود (05/0P>) و پس از آن به صورت خطی در هر دو گروه افزایش یافت. تولید تصحیح شده شیر، تولید شیر کل، و میانگین تولید شیر روزانه در گاوهای تیمار شده مشابه بود (05/0P>)، اما گاوهای گروه (P4-INJ) تولید شیر کمتری (05/0P<) از گاوهای کنترل داشتند. روزهای شیردهی و اوج عملکرد در میان تمام گروه ها مشابه بود (05/0P>). درصد چربی شیر و پروتئین، و نیز روزهای اوج تولید شیر در هر دو گروه تحت تیمار نسبت به گروه کنترل بالاتر بود (05/0P<). نمره وضعیت بدن، خدمات در آبستنی، آبستنی در اولین سرویس، آبستنی کل، روزهای باز و نرخ حذف در پایان شیردهی در میان گروهها مشابه بود (05/0P>) تجویز پروژسترون توسط تزریق یا با درج واژنی منجر به پارامترهای مشابه تولیدی و تولید مثلی گاو شیری با القاء شیردهی شد.
