The complex virus known as bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV), which is a member of the Pestivirus genus and Flaviviridae family, contains both structural and non-structural proteins that are essential to its life cycle. Four structural proteins, including envelope glycoproteins and protein C, are encoded by the virus and are vital for the formation of virus particles. The eight non-structural proteins include NS2 and NS3 (p80), which are necessary for transcription, translation and viral replication.

🐄🐑🐐💧 Proper Milk Sampling: Key to Mastitis Identification! 💡
Ensuring the accurate identification of mastitis pathogens begins with impeccable milk sample collection! 🐑🧼✨ Aseptic technique is an absolute must during milk sampling, preventing any contamination from organisms found on the cow's, ewe’s and goat’s skin, udder, teats, udder, teats or sampler's hands or in the barn environment. 🚫🦠
Contaminated samples can lead to misdiagnosis, increased workload, added expenses and needless frustration. 😓 To avoid such setbacks, follow the essential procedures outlined below to maintain the integrity of your samples and ensure accurate results. 📋🔍

Stressors connected to management and environmental factors are associated with a complex of bacterial and viral infections that can lead to bovine respiratory disease (BRD). This is one of the most common diseases that can afflict young cattle, such as feedlot, dairy and veal calves and preweaned animals. BRD is frequently caused by predisposing factors such as weaning, crowding, sorting, mingling, processing and shipment.

As veterinarians, we know the devastating impact of bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) on young calves.
Linked to 45% of cases of bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC), this virulent strain primarily affects calves aged 1 to 6 months. However, immunologically naïve cattle can succumb to the infection at any age, making it crucial to address this respiratory disease. Sadly, even aggressive therapies often fail to save the most severely affected animals.

🐐 Optimize Your Milking Management! 🐄
Large and Small ruminants possess unique mammary gland anatomy and milking routines, necessitating customized milking machine settings. Vacuum level, pulsometer parameters, and automatic cluster removers' calibration play a vital role in teat health, milking efficiency, and production volume. Dairy cows, sheep, and goats have large udder compartments, allowing for diverse milking strategies, and ensuring optimal milk secretion.

🐄🐐🥛 Importance of Mastitis Management on the Farm 🥼💼
Join Andrés in the fight against mastitis on his farm! 🛡️
Regular check-ups for the milking machine are non-negotiable in Andrés' playbook. Periodic evaluations, part replacements, and tuning up parameters like vacuum and pulsations keep things running smoothly.
Andrés knows the power of protection! Vaccination, especially against biofilm-producing Staphylococcus, is the secret weapon in his mastitis control arsenal.

IBR, caused by Bovine Herpes Virus 1, an Alphaherpesvirus, primarily inflicts damage through cell necrosis. In cows, this often results in serous ocular and nasal discharges, with secondary bacterial involvement turning them mucopurulent. Other significant signs include inflammation and necrosis of the nasopharynx and tracheal mucosa.
Let's keep exploring the intricate world of IBR by reading the complete article on our website: Detect and Protect.

How vaccination cuts mastitis costs.:
One of the biggest challenges in treating mastitis is that the bacteria responsible for it, often responds poorly to treatment.
This not only leads to increased use of antibiotics, but it also becomes a costly problem.
Vaccinate against mastitis causal agents can be helpful to cut costs.
