“…The higher sodium content in cervical mucus of repeat breeder crossbred cows than the normal cyclic in the present study are corroborated with earlier study of Siddiquee et al [44]. However, Sood et al [30] reported higher sodium in cervical mucus of normal cows than the repeaters. Levels of sodium have been reported to change due to inflammatory condition of genital organs as evident from findings of higher sodium in first degree uterine infection [45].…”

“…The post-treatment increased levels of phosphorus in both groups of cows are in close proximity to phosphorus levels of normal cyclic cows. The findings also revealed significantly higher inorganic phosphorus in normal cyclic cows than those of repeat breeders, which are corroborated with earlier findings of Shukla and Sharma [34]; Sood et al [30]. The role of inorganic phosphorus in cellular metabolism is well established.…”

“…It also remained higher than preceding concentration at post-treatment oestrus in Group-II whereas in Group-I, the difference was not significant. Higher total protein in cervical mucus of normal cyclic cows than those of repeat breeder have also been reported by earlier workers [41,30]. It has also been found to be associated with conception [42] and endometritis [43].…”

“…It is apparent from Table 3 that a level of calcium was lower in cervical mucus of repeat breeders than the normal cyclic cows. The present findings does not corroborate the earlier observations of higher calcium in repeat breeders [28,29] but are in agreement to those reported by Sood et al [30]. Further, the calcium level discerned in normal cows (12.17±0.52 mg/ml) is at par with earlier findings (11.04±2.62 mg/ml) reported by Umashankar et al [28].…”

The present study was carried out to investigate physio-biochemical attributes of cervical mucus following treatment of repeat breeder crossbred cows (HF×K) with ceftiofur crystalline free acid @ 6.6 mg/kg body weight administer separately in two groups of cows through intramuscular (Group-I) and subcutaneous route (Group-II). Each group included 15 repeat breeder cows whose selection was random and based on history of conception failure, gyneco-clinical observation of genitalia and number of artificial insemination per conception. The findings envisaged higher percentage of thick consistency (53.33%) and cloudy colored cervical mucus (93.33%) which returned to their normal characteristics of thin and clear type at post-treatment oestrus in both groups (60.00 and 80.00 %, Group-I; 66.67 and 93.33%, Group-II). The calcium and inorganic phosphorus contents of cervical mucus were significantly higher (p<0.05) at post-treatment oestrus in repeat breeders of Group-I and II whereas total cholesterol declined following treatment (24.05±1.85 and 23.45±1.91 mg/dl) then pre-treatment values (31.12±2.68 and 35.40±4.74 mg/dl) in two groups of repeaters but difference was significant only in Group-I. On the other hand, cervical mucus concentration of sodium, potassium and acid phosphates decreased while total lipids and alkaline phosphatase increased non-significantly at post-treatment oestrus in repeat breeder cows of both groups. It is concluded from the finding that ceftiofur therapy of repeat breeder cows was beneficial to restore normalcy of physio-biochemical properties of cervical mucus in both groups.

“…For the recovery from clinical or subclinical endometritis following parturition, immune system plays a very important role in uterine defence mechanism against invading microorganisms. Polymorphonuclear cells in genital discharge is directly related to pregnancy outcomes in cows (Sood and Bhavna 2014). Alterations in the normal inflammatory response could be the origin of sub-clinical endometritis (Singh et al 2008).…”

This study was conducted to find out the total bacterial count and percentage of polymorphoneutrophils (PMN) cells in uterine lavage samples obtained at a weekly interval from postpartum dairy cows and also to find out the correlation between total bacterial count and PMN cells recovered from the uterus of postpartum dairy cows. Twenty-one postpartum dairy cows were divided into two groups viz. group A (without postpartum complication; n=16) and group B (retained placenta/postpartum metritis; n=5) calving. Cows belonging to the group B were administered antibiotics for 5 days after parturition. Samples for endometrial cytology and total bacterial count were collected aseptically by uterine lavage method at weekly intervals from day 21 to 42 postpartum. Data were statistically analysed by using one-way ANOVA, correlation using Statistical Analysis Software, SAS® 9.2 TS Level version 2M2 for Windows (USA). Based on endometrial cytology, the incidence of sub-clinical endometritis (SCE) recorded was 18.75% in group A and 100% in cows with postpartum complications (Group B). Total bacterial count in the group A animals differed significantly (P<0.05) with the group-B animals. However, the difference between the total bacterial counts in group-A animals and diagnosed negative or positive for SCE did not differ significantly. A highly significant (P<0.05 and P<0.01) correlation was found between bacterial load and PMN cells obtained by uterine lavage technique.
