In order to assess the safety of milk used for produce raw milk ewe cheeses, we collect 60 milk aseptic samples from 60 half udders, during nine weeks, totalizing 540 samples. As result we identified 19 different microorganisms in 86 glands during the sampling time. Only one microorganism (S. aureus) could be dangerous for human health, found in the 6th week. All the others were almost all pathogens for animal ...
This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of different hormonal treatments to control the breeding activity in Churra Galega Bragançana (CGB) ewes. Material and Methods This experiment took place at Bragança (latitude 41° 49' N, longitude 6° 40' W, altitude 720 meters) and involved 94 adult CGB ewes. At March 9, 25 ewes received a melatonin implant (18 mg) – Melatonin. Forty-five days later a vaginal sponge w...

This study aimed to compare the efficiency of microbiological test with Californian Mastitis Test and somatic cell count in the diagnosis of Subclinical Mastitis (SM) in Terrincha sheep. Twenty-seven of a flock of about 200 Terrincha ewes (local breed) were studied for a period of 9 weeks (n > 497 samples). Milk samples were aseptically collected from each half udder once a week. At the same time, another sampl...
The aim of this work was to study the seroprevalence of paratuberculosis in the Northeast of Portugal in order to discern its economic impact, and to prioritize the allocation of disease control resources. The goat flocks studied were located in the region of Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro, Northeast of Portugal and included 3 counties (Macedo de Cavaleiros, Mirandela and Alfandega da Fé). In each flock, veterinar...
