Costa,Geraldo M.; Mesquita,Alan A.; Rocha,Christiane M.B.M.; Bruhn,Fabio R.P.; Andrade,Rafaella S.; Custódio,Dircéia A.C.; Braz,Mirian S.ABSTRACT: High bulk milk somatic cell counts (BMSCC) are indicative of failures related to the control of mastitis in the herd, which compromises the quality of the milk and generates great losses for the producers and for the industry. A case-control study was carried out in dairy herds in the Campos das Vertentes region, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, in order to contribute to the knowledge of the risk factors i...

Alberti,Taina S.; Bruhn,Fabio R.P.; Lansini,Valmor; Raffi,Margarida B.; Scheid,Haide V.; Zamboni,Rosimeri; Quevedo,Lucas; Sallis,Eliza S.V.ABSTRACT: Hydatidosis and cysticercosis are parasitoses caused by the larval forms of the cestodes Equinococcus spp. and Taenia spp., which belong to the Taeniidae family. Their definitive hosts are canids and humans, respectively, with ruminants as the intermediate hosts and humans as an accidental host of both diseases. These parasites are responsible for large economic losses in slaughterhouses due to condem...
