    Damascus kids' slaughter, carcass and meat quality traits in different production systems using antioxidant supplementation
    (Elsevier, 2016) Yakan, Akin; Ates, Cafer Tayyar; Alasahan, Sema; Odabasioglu, Fuat; Unal, Necmettin; Ozturk, Oktay Hasan; Gungor, Omer Faruk
    This study intended to investigate slaughter, carcass and meat quality characteristics of Damascus male kids reared under different production systems and antioxidant effect (Vit E). The kids, housed in pen groups and grazing groups, were equally divided for production systems and later each group was again equally divided for determination of Vit E effect. Production systems and Vit E were found to have no significant effect on slaughter and carcass traits. Differences between production systems were found significant for meat pH(24), water holding capacity, cooking loss, tenderness, ether-extractable lipid and some color characteristics and concentrate feed supplemented with Vit E was effective on TBARS values. Each of the fatty acids except C18:2 n6 was affected by the production system but Vit E influence was superior on long-chain fatty acids. Grazing kids had a lower percentage of total SFA, n6, n6/n3, AI and TI ratio, while kids housed in pens had the lowest percentage of total UFA, NV and n3 ratio. On the other hand, kids that consumed supplemental Vit E had a higher percentage of total UFA, ratio of UFA/SFA, n3 and lower percentage of SFA, ratio of n6/n3, AI, TI compared to the kids fed by non-supplemental concentrate feed with Vit E. In accordance with the meat fatty acid composition, meat obtained from the kids that grazed and consumed supplemental Vit E was healthier than that of those housed in pen kids and non-supplemental Vit E consumed kids.

    Oestrus Synchronization by Short and Long-Term Intravaginal Sponge Treatment in Lactating Goats During the Breeding Season: The Effects of GnRH Administrations Immediately after Matings on Fertility
    (Medwell Online, 2011) Saribay, Mustafa Kemal; Karaca, Fikret; Dogruer, Gokhan; Ergun, Yasar; Yavas, Ilker; Ates, Cafer Tayyar
    The present study was aimed at oestrus synchronization by applying progestagen-impregnated intravaginal sponges for either 7 or 12 days to lactating goats during the breeding season and at the determination of the effects of post-mating GnRH injection on fertility. The study was conducted in 80 hair goats aged between 2-5 years. The goats were allocated to two equal groups, one of which was applied short-term intravaginal sponge treatment and the other long-term treatment. The duration of intravaginal sponge treatment was 7 days in the short-term group (ST, n = 40) and 12 days in. the long-term group (LT, n = 40). Furthermore, on the day of intravaginal sponge removal, the goats received intramuscular injections of 400 IU of PMSG and 0.075 mg of cloprostenol. In both groups, 12 h after the removal of the vaginal sponges, 10 fertile bucks were introduced into the flock for oestrus detection twice a day and goats which were determined to be in oestrus were hand-mated to the assigned bucks. Immediately after mating, the goats included in each of the ST and LT groups were randomly assigned to two subgroups, referred to as ST1 (n = 18), ST2 (n = 18), LT1 (n = 18) and LT2 (n = 18). The subgroups ST1 and LT1 were maintained as controls whilst the subgroups ST2 and LT2 were administered with 5 meg of bucerelin acetate immediately after mating. In the present study, the times of oestrus onset and oestrus rates in the ST and LT groups were determined as 33.3 +/- 1.4 and 35.0 +/- 1.4 h and 94.7 and 97.2%, respectively. The differences observed between the two groups for the time of oestrus onset and oestrus rate were statistically insignificant (p>0.05). In the subgroups ST1, ST2, LT1 and LT2, pregnancy rates were determined as 55.5, 50, 50 and 55.5%, respectively whilst the parturition rate of all four subgroups was 100%. Furthermore, litter sizes were detected as 150, 200, 188 and 170% in the subgroups ST1, 5T2, LT1 and LT2, respectively. The differences observed between the subgroups for pregnancy rate, parturition rate and litter size were statistically insignificant (p>0.05). In conclusion, it was demonstrated in the present study that GnRH administrations immediately after mating to lactating goats in which oestrus synchronization was performed by means of short and long-term intravaginal sponge treatment during the breeding season did not improve pregnancy rate, parturition rate and litter size.

    Oestrus synchronization with short-term and long-term progestagen treatments in goats: the use of GnRH prior to short-term progestagen treatment
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010) Karaca, Fikret; Dogruer, Gokhan; Saribay, Mustafa Kemal; Ates, Cafer Tayyar
    The aim of the present study was to determine the efficacy of the synchronization of oestrus using short- and long-term progestagen treatments in Hair goats at the onset of the breeding season, and to evaluate the effect of the exogenous GnRH administration immediately prior to short-term progestagen treatment on the reproductive performance. A total of 75 Hair goats, aged 2.5-5 years-old were used in this experiment. Goats were divided equally into three groups (n=25 per group). Animals in LT-FGA (long-term progestagen treatment), ST-FGA (short-term progestagen treatment) and Gn-ST-FGA (GnRH-short-term progestagen treatment) groups received an intravaginal sponge (day 0) containing 30 mg fluorogestone acetate (FGA) for 14, 8 and 8 days, respectively, plus 75 mu g cloprostenol i.m. 24 h before sponge removal and 400 I. U. equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) i.m. at the time of sponge removal. In addition, the goats in the Gn-ST-FGA group received 10.5 mu g busereline acetate i.m. at the time of sponge insertion (day 0). Oestrus response for all treatment groups was 100%. The mean interval from sponge removal and the onset of oestrus for the LT-FGA, ST-FGA and Gn-ST-FGA groups was 28.0+/-1.0 h, 28.8+/-1.1 h and 33.1+/-2.0 h, respectively. No significant difference in onset of oestrus among groups was recorded. The pregnancy rate, kidding rate, multiple kidding rates and litter size were 72.0, 61.1, 45.5% and 1.6 in the LT-FGA, 70.8, 76.5, 69.2% and 1.8 in the ST-FGA and 58.3, 78.6, 63.6% and 1.6 in the Gn-ST-FGA groups, respectively. The pregnancy rates were similar in the LT-FGA (72.0%) and ST-FGA (70.8%). However, the kidding rate, multiple kidding rates and litter size were numerically higher in the ST-FGA (76.5%, 69.2% and 1.8, respectively) group than in the LT-FGA (61.1%, 45.5% and 1.6, respectively) group. Although not statistically different, pregnancy rate and litter size was lower in the Gn-ST-FGA group (58.3% and 1.6, respectively) compared with the ST-FGA (70.8% and 1.8, respectively). In conclusion, it can be said that oestrus synhcronization with long-term progestagen treatment (14 d-FGA- PGF(2 alpha)- eCG) could be replaced with short-term progestagen treatment (8 d-FGA-PGF(2 alpha)- eCG) without a reduction in oestrus rate and fertility parameters in lactating goats at the beginning of breeding season. However, the use of GnRH prior to short-term progestagen treatment (8 d-FGA-PGF(2 alpha)- eCG) do not have a positive effect on fertility parameters in goats.

    Treatment of subclinical mastitis in Damascus goats during lactation
    (Elsevier, 2010) Dogruer, Goekhan; Saribay, Mustafa Kemal; Ergun, Yasar; Aslantas, Oezkan; Demir, Cemil; Ates, Cafer Tayyar
    This study was carried out to determine the efficacy of three treatment protocols for subclinical mastitis during lactation in Damascus goats. For this purpose intramammarian ampicillin dicloxacillin, intramuscular amoxycillin clavulonic acid and the combination of intramammarian ampicillin dicloxacillin and intramuscular amoxycillin clavulonic acid were used in goats with subclinical mastitis during lactation. The microbiological treatment rates in the intramammarian ampicillin dicloxacillin, intramuscular amoxycillin clavulonic acid and the combination of intramammarian ampicillin dicloxacillin and intramuscular amoxycillin clavulonic acid groups in the 7th and 21st clays after the treatment were 62.5% and 92.5%, 62.5% and 70%, 87.5% and 87.5%, respectively. The intramammarian and intramuscular combination group was found to have a statistically higher treatment rate than other two groups on the 7th clay. On the 21st day intramammarian and combination groups were found to have statistically better treatment rates than that of intramuscular group. It was concluded that the goat subclinical mastitis could be successfully treated during lactation. While the intramammarian ampicillin dicloxacillin treatment had the best treatment rates, the combination of intramuscular amoxycillin clavulonic acid was also successful. Intramuscular amoxycillin clavulonic acid as the sole treatment was not as effective as intramammarian therapy. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
