dc.description.abstract | One of the main causes of the dairy industry’s significant financial losses is bovine subfertility.
Even though bacterial infections frequently contribute to reproductive problems, limited data is
describing the normal vaginal microbiota of the cow. Determining the microbial colonies found
in the reproductive canal of the cow may allow us to better understand the physiology of the
animal’s reproductive system, which has great commercial significance. The postpartum uterine
inflamed cows are now treated with antibiotics, hormones, and antiseptic agents. Specific
concerns arise since there is high incidence of microbial resistance, drug residues in milk and
meat production cost increase which indicates lack of efficiency of those treatments. | en_US |
