Educating Veterinarians in Oregon and Surrounding States on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Foulbrood Diseases in Honeybee Hives

Creator:: Miller, Samantha
Abstract:: Honeybees are essential for agriculture and to sustain an ecosystem. There are two main types of bacterial diseases that affect honeybee colonies and brood: American Foulbrood and European Foulbrood. Both bacterial diseases can be treated with antibiotics approved for use in honeybees, however American Foulbrood is spore forming and cannot...

Sperm acrosome associated 3 protein expression and antigenicity in horses

Creator:: Cozzi, Brynley C.
Abstract:: Sperm acrosome associated 3 protein (SPACA3) is a unique, intra-acrosomal, conventional-type lysozyme-like protein of mammalian spermatozoa. SPACA3 is present in all stages of ovarian follicles and is localized to granulosa cells and ooplasma in humans, mice, cows, dogs, and cats. The objective of this study was to determine if equine...

Comparison of Three Different Analyzers to Measure Canine Serum Progesterone

Creator:: Hisanaga, Trevor H.
Abstract:: The canine estrous cycle is unique compared to other domestic animal species. During estrus, serum progesterone concentrations ([P4]) rise two days prior to ovulation. In fact, the luteinization of pre-ovulatory follicles resulting in this initial increase in [P4] (1.5-2.5 ng/ml) cannot be temporally dissociated from the onset of the surge...

Luteinizing hormone receptor-mediated cell proliferation in canine T-cell lymphoma cells

Creator:: Flint, Camryn
Abstract:: Luteinizing hormone (LH) is secreted in low-amplitude pulses in sexually intact dogs to stimulate synthesis of estrogen and testosterone in females and males, respectively. LH is mainly considered a reproductive hormone, but LH receptors (LHR) have been identified in non-reproductive tissues, including in canine lymphoma and isolated canine T-cell lymphoma...

Effect of acupuncture on somatic cell count, milk ion conductivity, and milk serum enzyme concentrations in dairy cattle with subclinical mastitis

Creator:: Ryan, Elise L.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to determine if acupuncture can reduce bovine mammary inflammation. Lactating cows at the Oregon State University Dairy Research Center were selected based on Dairy Herd Improvement Association reports indicating a SCC >500,000 cells/mL. A California Mastitis Test (CMT) score of greater than one was...

Use of Platelet Rich Plasma for the Treatment of Subclinical Endometritis in Beef Heifers

Creator:: Puttman, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Postpartum uterine inflammation (endometritis) is not uncommon in beef cattle, resulting in infertility and culling. Prolonged calving may contribute to the increased incidence of endometritis in heifers. Commonly used methods to treat endometritis in beef cattle include intrauterine antibiotics and/or hormone injections, which can result in meat residues. Platelet rich...

Methods of Reproductive Control in Domestic and Free-Roaming Horses and the Behavioral Implications

Creator:: Negretti, Christina L.
Abstract:: The current American free-roaming horse (Equus caballus) population far exceeds the appropriate population limit set by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to preserve resources on public lands. Several techniques have been tested to assist in decreasing repopulation rates. The purpose of the present study was to analyze two contraceptive...

Gross causes of neonatal mortality in Devon Rex and Persian kittens

Creator:: Omoto, Holly
Abstract:: Post-mortem examinations were performed on 29 deceased Persian kittens from 13 different litters, and 30 deceased Devon Rex kittens from 18 different litters in order to identify gross anatomical abnormalities. Fifteen kittens were stillborn (8 Devon Rex, 7 Persian), 17 kittens died during the first day of life (16 Devon...

Gastrointestinal Parasitism in Healthy Show South American Camelids

Creator:: Kutzler, Colleen J.
Abstract:: Camelid health and parasitology experts disagree on what a “safe” level of internal parasitism is in camelids. The objective was to determine the levels of parasitism in show camelids (llamas and alpacas). The hypothesis was that fecal egg counts (FEC) in camelid would differ based upon geographic location, species (llama...
