“…According to Mohammed et al (2014) Cu and P are the main limiting minerals for grazing ruminants in Asia, Africa and Latin America and copper deficiency can cause growth reduction, bone disorders, diarrhea and infertility. The relationship between trace minerals is important to the absorption of minerals and according to Marques et al (2013), increased levels of Fe, Mn and Zn limit absorption of Cu.…”

This study aimed to evaluate the chemical composition of water wells and to discuss the results in relation to nutritional requirements and tolerance limits of domestic ruminants. Ten samples of water wells (three replicates) from Brazilian semi-arid were collected and analyzed for their macro and trace minerals levels. A variation was found in the mineral composition of the waters and the macro minerals presenting highest levels were Cl, Mg, Ca and Na, while the predominant trace minerals were Fe and Mn. The concentration of the examined minerals can provide a small contribution to the animal as in the case of P or supply a considerable amount as Cl. The levels of total dissolved solids found in the majority of the samples can be tolerable for ruminants. In some of the samples the presence of Pb, Cd and Cr was found in concentrations higher than the upper recommended limit for ruminants.

The objective of this study was to analyze and describe the clinical characteristics of 17 cases of allotrophagia in calves of both sexes and ages between 14 and 25 months of age from the municipality of the union, Sucre, Colombia, between January And April in the period from 2005 to 2016. A general clinical and special digestive examination was performed, with similar clinical manifestations in all animals, which consisted of evidence of poor body condition, anemia and edema in the jowl, as well as increased volume in the lower left quadrant of the abdomen, when performing movements of succussion and percussion of the abdomen was evidenced the presence of solid material in great quantities that emitted a sound similar to the blow of several stones in a sac and to the auscultation it was found fading of the ruminal sounds. All animals underwent surgical removal of the material by rumenotomy, mainly finding stones, plastic, bones and seeds of Elaeis oleifera (corozo). The diagnosis of allotrophagia was made based on anamnesis, the clinical characteristics in the animal and the surgical extraction of the material, which are characteristic in this type of nutritional alteration. Although it is a common event in cattle from this region of Sucre department, this is the first report of allotrophagia in cattle of this department and Colombia. Keywords:Depraved appetite; pica; minerals; deficiency. ResumenEl objetivo de este estudio fue analizar y describir las características clínicas de 17 casos de alotrofagia en terneros, de ambos sexos y edades comprendidas entre 14 y 25 meses de edad, procedentes del municipio de la unión, Sucre (Colombia) entre los meses de enero y abril en el periodo de 2005 al 2016. Se realizó examen clínico general y digestivo especial encontrándose manifestaciones clínicas similares en todos animales, las cuales consistieron en la evidencia de mala condición corporal, anemia y edema en la papada, así como aumento de volumen en el cuadrante inferior izquierdo del abdomen, al realizar movimientos de sucusión y percusión del abdomen se evidencio la presencia de material sólido en grandes cantidades que emitían un sonido parecido al golpe de varias piedras en un saco y a la auscultación se encontró apagamiento de los sonidos ruminales. A todos los animales se les realizó extracción quirúrgica del material mediante ruminotomía, encontrándose principalmente piedras, plástico, huesos y semillas de Elaeis oleífera (corozo). El diagnóstico de alotrofagia se realizó basado en la anamnesis, las características clínicas en el animal y la extracción quirúrgica del material, que son características en este tipo de alteración nutricional. A pesar de que es evento común en bovinos provenientes esta región del departamento de Sucre, este es el primer reporte de alotrofagia en bovinos de este departamento y Colombia.
