This study was aimed at the assessment of the reliability and performance of the Brix refractometer for the determination of colostral IgG concentrations in sheep. A total of 190 colostrum samples were collected from 150 ewes of various breeds. Out of the colostrum samples, 101 were taken at parturition, 10 at 6 h postpartum, 6 at 8 h postpartum, 2...

Implementing selective dry cow therapy as an alternative to systematic antimicrobial use at dry off on dairy farms can play a role in decreasing antimicrobial use. While on-farm bacte­riological tests have been validated to identifying intramam­mary infection (IMI), a cow-side test such as ATP luminometry could be a quick, simple, and cheap alterna...
Article
Dairy cows commonly experience uterine bacterial infections post-calving, which can lead to reproductive tract inflamma­tion. While diagnosing uterine infection requires bacteriologi­cal culture, on-farm identification of inflammation is quicker. Moreover, antimicrobial treatment has shown positive impacts on reproductive performance of cows identi...
Article
The objective of this study was to determine the optimal diagnostic criteria combination for purulent vaginal discharge (PVD) and endometritis (ENDO) in cows ≥100 DIM to predict the probability of pregnancy. A prospective observational study was conducted in 24 commercial Holstein herds selected by convenience. Cows ≥100 DIM identified as nonpregna...
Article
Biosecurity practices are the cornerstone of disease prevention and control programs. In Canada, their implementation is evaluated with a Risk Assessment Questionnaire (RAQ). Association Rule Learning (ARL) – a non-supervised machine learning algorithm – is widely used in marketing for consumer segmentation based on purchase patterns. This techniqu...

In Québec, Canada, nonreplacement calves are generally sent at a young age to auction markets to be sold for veal or dairy beef production. Various clinical observations found during the calves’ journey, either at an auction market or on arrival at a calf raiser farm, have been associated with increased risk of morbidity, such as dehydration or umb...

Full-text available
Dairy calf welfare assessment tools focusing on the pre-weaning period have been proposed in recent research. Despite the existence of these tools, assessing the welfare and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of dairy calves remains challenging. These difficulties may stem from the complexity of assessing all dimensions of calf welfare and the...
Article
The objective of the study was to quantify the effect of administering intrauterine cephapirin in cows ≥100 DIM affected by purulent vaginal discharge (PVD) or endometritis (ENDO) on pregnancy. A randomized controlled trial was conducted in 31 conveniently selected commercial dairy herds. In these herds, cows ≥100 DIM identified as nonpregnant duri...

Each year around 150,000 surplus calves are sold at auction markets in Québec, Canada. Surplus calves (male or female not kept in the herd of origin) are sold at a young age, but these animals are at risk of receiving lower quality neonatal care than replacement heifers. Knowledge of factors associated with a higher selling price could help convinc...

Simple Summary Veterinary science is based on data collection at the animal or herd level. Beyond the variability in the variable in question, the data collected can depend on the device used or the person performing the measurement. Determination of these sources of variation is crucial to be able to use these measurements in practice or research....
Article
Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is a common and complex disease process in calves. Subclinical disease exists and early detection can be challenging due to inconsistent or nonexistent clinical signs. Thoracic ultrasonography (TUS) is often used and has the potential to improve the identification of respiratory diseases. Combining systematic TUS wi...

Diagnostic tests are performed daily by bovine practitioners at the individual and population level. At the individual level, they help not only for making a diagnosis, but can also serve to rule in or rule out a specific condition, monitor treatment response, establish a prognosis, or to determine infection status. Performing an individual diagnos...
