In order to assess the safety of milk used for produce raw milk ewe cheeses, we collect 60 milk aseptic samples from 60 half udders, during nine weeks, totalizing 540 samples. As result we identified 19 different microorganisms in 86 glands during the sampling time. Only one microorganism (S. aureus) could be dangerous for human health, found in the 6th week. All the others were almost all pathogens for animal ...
This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of different hormonal treatments to control the breeding activity in Churra Galega Bragançana (CGB) ewes. Material and Methods This experiment took place at Bragança (latitude 41° 49' N, longitude 6° 40' W, altitude 720 meters) and involved 94 adult CGB ewes. At March 9, 25 ewes received a melatonin implant (18 mg) – Melatonin. Forty-five days later a vaginal sponge w...

This study aimed to compare the efficiency of microbiological test with Californian Mastitis Test and somatic cell count in the diagnosis of Subclinical Mastitis (SM) in Terrincha sheep. Twenty-seven of a flock of about 200 Terrincha ewes (local breed) were studied for a period of 9 weeks (n > 497 samples). Milk samples were aseptically collected from each half udder once a week. At the same time, another sampl...
Este trabalho teve como principal objectivo estudar a eficiência da utilização da eCG, isolada ou conjuntamente com a hCG, num programa progestagénico curto de interrupção do anestro sazonal em cabras da raça Serrana. De acordo com os resultados obtidos, no mês de Maio, 76,1% das cabras Serranas estava em anestro sazonal. A percentagem de cabras que apresentaram cio foi mais elevada entre as tratadas apenas com...
Este ensaio foi realizado com o intuito de comparar a eficácia de dois tratamentos hormonais distintos na interrupção do anestro sazonal – FGA + eCG (Grupo Controlo) vs. Melatonina + FGA + eCG (Grupo Melatonina) –, em ovelhas da raça Churra Galega Bragançana. Adicionalmente, procurou-se avaliar os efeitos da administração de duas doses diferentes de eCG – 500 UI ou 750 UI. Foram utilizadas 40 ovelhas da raça Ch...
Este ensaio foi realizado com o intuito de avaliar os efeitos da administração de um tratamento progestagénico longo, associado a duas doses diferentes de eCG – 500 UI ou 750 UI –, no controlo da actividade ovárica, em ovelhas da raça Churra Galega Bragançana. Foram utilizadas 39 ovelhas da raça Churra Galega Bragançana do rebanho comercial do IPB-ESA (Bragança, Portugal), com idades compreendidas entre os 1-7 ...
