Objetivou-se neste estudo, avaliar a dinâmica da infecção intramamária de ovelhas por meio da avaliação clínica, da contagem de células somáticas e do isolamento de bactérias envolvidas na infecção mamária ao longo de toda a lactação, bem como o perfil de sensibilidade destes isolados frente a antimicrobianos. Foram avaliadas 34 ovelhas da raça Santa Inês criadas em sistema semi-intensivo e submetidas ao mesmo manejo higiênico-sanitário e nutricional acompanhadas antes e durante o período de lactação: aproximadamente 10 dias que precedeu ao parto, 15 dias pós-parto (dpp), 30 dpp, 60 dpp e 90 dpp (secagem). Nestes momentos foi realizado o exame clínico da glândula. A contagem de células somáticas (CCS) e o CMT foram realizados nos momentos seguintes ao parto (15dpp, 30dpp, 60dpp e 90dpp), assim como a análise bacteriológica, realizada além dos momentos citados anteriormente, também no momento que precedeu ao parto. A colheita do leite foi realizada por ordenha manual. Todas as ovelhas foram submetidas à sorologia para lentivírus. Os dados da variável CCS foram submetidos ao teste de normalidade segundo Kolmogorov-Smirnov e por não atender a premissa de normalidade, foram transformados em log de base 10 (Log10). Por conseguinte efetuou-se a análise de variância e contraste de médias pelo teste de Tukey com nível de significância de P<0,05. Foi realizado o estudo descritivo das variáveis empregando-se a distribuição de frequências (%). O valor médio da CCS das glândulas não reagentes ao CMT, ao longo do período de lactação, variou de 387.896,08 células/mL a 620.611,11 células/mL e nas glândulas reagentes, dependendo do escore do CMT, apresentou valores médios que variaram de 2.133.914,19 células/mL a 6.730.514,50 células/mL, sem contudo sofrer influência das diferentes fases da lactação. Os resultados obtidos permitiram concluir que a mastite subclínica representa uma preocupação sanitária na criação de ovelhas Santa Inês, chamando-se atenção para o período que precede o parto devido o alto percentual de isolamento bacteriano em glândulas aparentemente sadias, bem como a elevada frequência de isolamento, particularmente de Staphylococcus coagulase-negativo no primeiro mês de lactação.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the venous blood lactate concentration in sheep and newborn lambs immediately after normal delivery. We used 14 ewes, nine and four Suffolk crossbred lambs and 20 healthy newborns (males and females). The effect of gender, race and number of lambs per birth was investigated, as well as the possible correlation between the concentration of maternal and newborn lactate. There was no difference between males and females or in relation to race (and Suffolk crossbred); however the concentration of lactate was higher in twin or triplet lambs when compared to single lambs. There was a positive correlation between the maternal and newborn concentration and the higher the concentration of lactate, the greater the concentration in the lamb immediately after normal delivery. The results of this study provide a base from which to compare the blood lactate levels in lambs in critical condition.

The purpose was to evaluate the reproductive performance of woolless ewes due to the feeding management of offsprings and weaning age in addition to measuring the effect of gender on weight gain of lambs. Sixty-four Santa Inês crossbred ewes were distributed in a completely randomized design in a factorial 4 x 2 x 2 - four weaning ages (56, 70, 84 and 98 days), sex and feeding management of the offspring, each treatment with four replications. The ewes were managed with the offsprings at the foot in 14 paddocks of 1,5 or 2,0 hectares, formed with Brachiaria humidícola. The offsprings were born by single birth, of Santa Inês pure of origin (PO). After the weaning of all groups, sixty-four lambs (32 males and 32 females) were randomly assigned in individual stalls and confined for 30 days. The comparison of the parameters was carried out by the adjustment of the simple linear regression model. It was verified over time addiction of the offspring feed management of + 3,7% (P<0,05) for the calving intervals and of + 1,4% (P<0,05) for the service period. There was increasing linear effect (P<0,05) of weaning age on calving intervals and service period. It was verified over time, addiction of the offspring sex of + 2,0% (P<0,05) for the calving intervals and + 0,8% (P<0,05) for the ewes service period. It was observed over time addiction of sex of + 35,2% and + 36,9% (P<0,05), respectively, for the daily weight gain of lambs from birth to weaning and post-weaning in feedlot. The supplementation of the offspring in private feeder and the anticipation of the weaning age reduce the calving intervals and the service period of woolless ewes in Brachiaria humidicula pasture. The offspring sex is the source of variation in the analysis of reproductive efficiency of ewe's mat rices and in the weight gain of Santa Inês crossbred lambs from birth to weaning, and after weaning.

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of flushing on the reproductive performance of Morada Nova (MN) and Santa Inês (SI) ewes submitted to fixed time artificial insemination (TAI). Twenty seven SI and 24 MN supplemented with concentrate (1% of live weight, on average), for 75 days during the breeding season. After 30 days of supplementation, ewes were synchronized with the aid of a hormonal protocol (HP) based on progesterone, eCG and cloprostenol. The estrus observation was conducted at 12, 24, 36 and 48 h after the end of HP with the aid of two ruffians. TAI was done 55 h after the end of HP. From 20 to 45 days after the beginning of the HP ewes were exposed to rams (natural breeding). The pregnancy diagnosis was evaluated 70 days after TAI. We analyzed the weight, body condition score, estrus rate, pregnancy rate and prolificacy testing the effects of race, week of supplementation and body condition score class. The weight and body conditions of ewes varied according to the week of supplementation, with higher values in the first two weeks following TAI. The estrus rate was 88.2% and 43.2% of the ewes showed estrus up to 24 hours of the end of the HP. The pregnancy rate per TAI was 31.3% and the pregnancy rate after natural breeding was 50.0%. It was observed that body condition score classes interfered in pregnancy rates. There was a higher percentage of multiple births by pregnancy by TAI than by natural breeding. It was concluded that the flushing resulted in weight gain and better body conditions ensuring the standardization of the herd for breeding season, which therefore improved reproductive performance. The HP used advanced the onset of estrus and increased prolificacy, but was inefficient in the synchronization of woolless sheep.

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi testar a indução e sincronização do estro em ovelhas utilizando-se diferentes períodos de permanência do progestágeno, dose única de PGF2α ou efeito macho. Para tanto dois experimentos foram realizados: no experimento 1, as ovelhas (n=48) receberam esponjas vaginais impregnadas com MAP (medroxiprogesterona) e foram divididas em 2 grupos: G-9 e G-14, ou seja, MAP por nove ou 14 dias com aplicação de PGF2α na retirada do progestágeno e detecção de estro com reprodutores. Não houve diferenças (p<0,05) na manifestação no estro (69,6 % e 80%), na porcentagem de prenhez (34,8% e 44%) ou de concepção (50% e 55%) nos grupos G-9 e G-14, respectivamente. No experimento 2, as ovelhas (n=151) foram aleatoriamente divididas em 3 grupos: G-6, cada ovelha recebeu MAP por seis dias e aplicação de PGF2α na retirada do progestágeno; G-PGF, cada ovelha recebeu dose única de PGF2α e G-EM para avaliar o efeito macho foram introduzidos machos entre ovelhas previamente separadas dos mesmos. A porcentagem de manifestação de estro foi maior (p<0,05) nos grupos G-6 (58%) e G-PGF (39%) quando comparados ao G-EM (11%). Concluímos ser possível diminuir o tempo de permanência do progestágeno, porém o uso de luteolítico, em período de transição da estacionalidade reprodutiva, sem o progestágeno, resulta em baixa manifestação de estro.

The experiment evaluated the effects of strategic shearing on feeding behavior in Ile de France ewes in Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) grazing during breeding season. A total of 20 ewes, female, Ile de France breed, 4 years old, 71.10 kg of body weight, in grazing, in a completely randomized design with two treatments and ten repetitions, in which the treatments were composed by shorn and non-shorn animals. The length of the breeding season was 90 days, where the evaluations occurred in the 86th, 87th and 88th day of the experimental period. The grazing time (6.50 hours), rumination (1.59 hours) and idle (3.97 hours) have not changed (P> 0.05) by strategic shearing of the animals, as well as the frequency and the time by frequency grazing (18.33 grazing and 21.49 min/grazing), rumination (10.71 ruminations and 8.83 min/rumination) and idle (18.83 idles and 12.66 min/idle). In the same way, the number of bits per minute (26.37 bits) and the total daily bits (19.116 bits) of the animals were not affected. Thus, the strategic shearing in Ile de France ewes in Bermudagrass grazing during the breeding season does not alter animal feeding behavior.
