Dose regimen optimization of cephalothin for surgical prophylaxis against Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative staphylococci in dogs by pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling Res. Vet. Sci. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-29 María del Pilar Zarazaga, Mariano Guillermo Tinti, Nicolás Javier Litterio, Martín Alejandro Himelfarb, Manuel Ignacio San Andrés-Larrea, Sonia Rubio-Langre, Juan Manuel Serrano-Rodríguez, Augusto Matías Lorenzutti
First generation cephalosporins such cephalothin of cefazolin are indicated for antimicrobial prophylaxis for clean and clean contaminated surgical procedures because its antimicrobial spectrum, relative low toxicity and cost. Anesthesia and surgery could alter the pharmacokinetic behavior of different drugs administered perioperative by many mechanisms that affect distribution, metabolism or excretion

The impact of Origanum Vulgare essential oil supplementation on sperm motility and subpopulation alterations in bulls, dogs, and rabbits Res. Vet. Sci. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-26 Zarhouti Ahlam, Sakoui Souraya, El Khalfi Bouchra, Mbaye M. Moudou, Yañez Ramil Uxia, Quintela Arias Luis Angel, José Becerra González Juan, García Herradón Pedro, Soukri Abdelaziz
Artificial insemination is a widely adopted method in livestock production for various reasons such as health security and genetic improvement. Although sperm motility is of paramount importance in this technique as it directly influences the sperm's ability to fertilize the oocyte. In previous research on human sperm, we observed that in vitro supplementation with essential oil significantly improved

Extracellular cAMP and MRP4 activity influence in vitro capacitation and fertilizing ability of pig spermatozoa Res. Vet. Sci. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-24 Marcella Spinaci, Olga Blanco-Prieto, Jose Manuel Ortiz-Rodriguez, Chiara Bernardini, Diego Bucci
cAMP has been reported to be an essential driver of sperm capacitation. In bovine sperm cAMP efflux through multidrug resistance-associated protein 4 (MRP4) has been suggested to maintain intracellular cAMP homeostasis and generate extracellular signaling able to regulate capacitation. The aim of this work was to determine whether extracellular cAMP may influence in vitro pig sperm capacitation and

The groundbreaking impact of digitalization and artificial intelligence in sheep farming Res. Vet. Sci. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-20 Muhammad Furqan Arshad, Giovanni Pietro Burrai, Antonio Varcasia, Maria Francesca Sini, Fahad Ahmed, Giovanni Lai, Marta Polinas, Elisabetta Antuofermo, Claudia Tamponi, Raffaella Cocco, Andrea Corda, Maria Luisa Pinna Parpaglia
The integration of digitalization and Artificial Intelligence (AI) has marked the onset of a new era of efficient sheep farming in multiple aspects ranging from the general well-being of sheep to advanced web-based management applications. The resultant improvement in sheep health and consequently better farming yield has already started to benefit both farmers and veterinarians. The predictive analytical

TCM formula for trauma treatment screening and its role of promoting infectious wound coalescence investigating Res. Vet. Sci. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-17 Siya Li, Bolin Gu, Jinwu Meng, Jinyue Zhu, Jinli Wang, Weiran Wang, Jinxue Ding, Tianxin Qiu, Wenjia Wang, Jiaguo Liu, Yi Wu, Kun Li
In pet clinics, the number of cases using trauma drugs accounts for >10% of the total number of cases, and most wounds are healing by second intention. The prolongation of wound healing time causes inconvenience and burden to pets and pet owners. Therefore, how to reduce wound healing time and achieve maximum recovery of tissue function and aesthetics is one of the focuses of veterinary clinical practice

Influence of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxemia on plasma and tissue disposition of florfenicol after intramuscular administration in rabbits Res. Vet. Sci. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-15 Victoria Cazanga, José Riquelme, Diego Cornejo, Jessie-Ana Jeldres, Cristina Palma, Rubén Pérez-Fernández
To assess the effects of the acute inflammatory response (AIR) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on plasma and tissue disposition of florfenicol (FFC) and its metabolite florfenicol amine (FFC-a), after its intramuscular (IM) administration, twenty-two New Zealand rabbits were randomly distributed in two experimental groups: Group 1 (LPS) was treated with three intravenous doses of 2 μg LPS/kg bw

Genetic characterization of the parvovirus full-length VP2 gene in domestic cats in Brazil Res. Vet. Sci. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-13 Cinthya Fonseca Domingues, Tatiana Xavier de Castro, Bárbara Vieira do Lago, Rita de Cássia Nasser Cubel Garcia
Feline parvovirus (FPV) and canine parvovirus (CPV) are over 98% identical in their DNA sequences, and the new variants of CPV (2a/2b/2c) have gained the ability to infect and replicate in cats. The aim of this study was to determine the genetic diversity in the VP2 gene of parvovirus strains circulating in domestic cats in Brazil during a 10-year period (2008–2017). For parvovirus screening, specific
