Evaluation of Glyceryl Guaiacolate as a Muscle Relaxant in Buffalo Calves

Abstract: Summary Glyceryl guaiacolate administration (165 mg./kg.) to seven healthy buffalo calves (82–134 kg.) produced complete muscle relaxation and absence of cutaneous, pedal and corneal reflexes. The palpebral reflex was not abolished. Bulging of the eyeballs was a consistent feature. The respiratory rate was not appreciably changed but in two animals its depth was reduced, resulting in respiratory acidosis. Other consistent effects included significant hypotension and tachycardia, a transient precipitous fall in… Show more

“…Similar findings were observed by Rings and Muir (1982) in calves and Ninu et al (2015) after ketamine administration. This was in contrary to the findings in buffalo calves under guaifenesin anesthesia (Sarma and Kumar, 1998;Singh et al, 1981), midazolam-ketamine (Kumar et al, 2014b) and xylazine-ketamine (Singh et al, 2011) where corneal reflexes were completely abolished.…”

“…Alterations in the P5, due to the variations in ligands mentioned earlier result in the shift of the oxygen dissociation curve which is of great physiological significance. We have previously observed the development of alkalosis and possible tissue hypoxia during various stress conditions in cattle and buffaloes which is contrary to the observations made in monogastric animals (7)(8)(9)(10) teristic feature in these animals was the maintenance of oxygen saturation of haemoglobin. In such situations, as a result of acid base disturbances, the Bohr effect may operate to impair oxygen availability to tissues since, normally, advantage gained by increased affinity of haemoglobin for oxygen at pulmonary level is compromised by decreased oxygen delivery to the tissues.…”
