“…Phagocytic activity and index was high on the day of calving, irrespective of parity in all the buffaloes as reported earlier in our study (Dang et al, 2009). Sugisawa et al (2001) found that as the levels of immunoglobulins were very high in colostrum, it increased its PA.…”

Milk samples were collected from 34 lactating Murrah buffaloes on days 0, 5, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270 and day 300 after calving. Milk somatic cell counts (SCC) were highest in multiparous buffaloes. Milk SCC were significantly lower in buffaloes of third and fourth parity during early lactation and than increased significantly (p < 0.01) by the end of lactation. Milk neutrophils were significantly lower in all the buffaloes during early lactation, but increased significantly (p < 0.01) afterwards. Milk lymphocytes were significantly higher during early lactation, but decreased significantly (p < 0.01) by the end of lactation. Phagocytic activity (PA) was highest in day 1 colostrum and then decreased significantly (p < 0.01) by the fourth milking in buffaloes of second, third and fourth parity. Phagocytic index (PI) was also highest in colostrums of primiparous buffaloes. Irrespective of parity, maximum PA and PI was observed during mid lactation. In terms of in vitro phagocytic activity, early lactation is the most critical period followed by late and mid lactation.

BackgroundColostrum has many beneficial effects on newborns due to its main compounds (proteins, fats, lactose, essential fatty acids, amino acids) as well as protective antibodies that confer to the body. The buffaloes are the second important species for milk production in the world after cows. The importance of the species is also conferred by a longer longevity, high dry content of milk and a strong organic resistance when compared with cows. The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of buffalo colostrum compounds such as fatty acids, cholesterol and physicochemical parameters during the first seven days postpartum and under the impact of the season, summer on pasture and winter on dry diet (hay based).ResultsFat from colostrum differs depending on the postpartum day showing mean values of 11.31-7.56% (summer season) and 11.22-7.51% (winter season). These values gradually decreased starting with first day postpartum until day seven. Dry substance and protein presented a similar evolution to fat reaching the lowest values at the end of the colostral period. Lactose, ash and pH showed a gradually increase reaching the maximum on day seven postpartum. The highest titres of fatty acids from colostrum are: butyric acid (C4:0), myristic acid (C14:0), palmitic acid (C16:0), oleic acid (C18:1) and the lowest values showed up in myristoleic acid (C14:1), cis-10-pentadecanoic acid (C15:1), pentadecylic acid (C15:0) and margaric acid (C17:0) for both seasons. Higher concentrations have been recorded for the summer season in general. Cholesterol concentration decreased from 12.93 and 12.68 mg/100 mL (summer and winter season) to 9.02 and 7.88 mg/100 mL in the end of the colostral period.ConclusionsPhysicochemical compounds of buffalo colostrum were influenced by season and postpartum day of milking. Excepting lactose all other parameters gradually decreased during colostral period. Fatty acids and cholesterol showed the same evolution, presenting higher values for the summer season. Specific feeding in the summer season (on pasture) did lead in more concentrated colostrum in dry substance, fatty acids and cholesterol.

“…A composição química do colostro varia entre as diferentes espécies mamíferas, no entanto, geralmente é rico em energia, proteína, vitaminas e minerais (Dang et al, 2009). Na espécie bubalina os teores de sólidos totais vaiam de 25,31-26,67%, 9,59-11,31% de gordura, 8,73-13,46% de proteína e 3,73% de lactose (Abd El-Fattah et al, 2012;Corian et al, 2013).…”

Objetivou-se caracterizar o colostro da primeira ordenha de búfalas da raça Murrah utilizando a metodologia não oficial de absorção infravermelha. Para isso, foram colhidas amostras individuais de 42 fêmeas multíparas, por meio de ordenha manual. As amostras foram coletadas em até 12 h após o parto e encaminhadas para determinação de gordura, proteína, lactose, sólidos totais e sólidos não gordurosos por meio de absorção infravermelha. Realizamos também a contagem de células somáticas (CCS) e leitura de condutividade elétrica (CE) do colostro. Os dados foram submetidos à análise estatística descritiva através do procedimento proc means. Os valores de condutividade elétrica foram divididos em quatro classes e as médias das características físico-químicas das diferentes classes foram comparadas pelo teste T com 5% de significância. Também foi realizada análise de correlação entre as características químicas, CCS e CE do colostro. Foram obtidas médias de 4,
