    The effect of early postpartum administration of intrauterine povidone-iodine on the postpartum period in Holstein cows
    (Hellenic Veterinary Medical Soc, 2024) Urer, E. Koldas; Findik, M.
    Uterine diseases in cows are caused mainly by bacterial contamination after parturition.This study aimed to reveal the possible effects of intrauterine povidone-iodine solution on the postpartum involution process and, subsequently, to identify the outcomes of infectious and reproductive statements. The study group (n=34) and the control group (n=35) received intrauterine povidone-iodine (2%) and 0.9% NaCl, respectively, within 24 hours of parturition, both in a volume of 100 ml. In order to monitor the involution process in the groups rectal body temperatures (daily for eight days), placental expulsions (Score 1: 0-6 hours, Score 2: 6-12 hours, Score 3: 12-24 hours, Score 4: placental retention), characteristics (Score 1: none/lucent, Score 2: bloody/chocolate colored, Score 3: mucopurulent/ purulent) and odor (odorless/malodorous) of uterine discharge were evaluated. The uterus's diameter was measured on ultrasound imaging to monitor uterine involution in both groups. Uterine infections were evaluated by clinical observations. Bacterial content of uterus was evaluated with microbiological sampling. The pregnancy rates of first, second, and third insemination, and the insemination index parameters in each group were calculated in three separate periods; until the postpartum 80th, 150th, and 400th days. There was no statistical difference between the groups regarding involution process parameters, uterine involution, uterine infections and fertility parameters (P>0.05). It was concluded that intrauterine %2 povidone-iodine administration at a volume of 100 ml in the early postpartum period had no different effect on reproductive performance than its isotonic saline solution.

    Evaluation of blood omega-3 and omega-6 levels in healthy female dogs and female dogs with mammary tumours
    (Hellenic Veterinary Medical Soc, 2021) Tuzlu, T.; Saribay, M. K.; Urer, E. Koldas; Kose, A. M.; Gozer, A.; Yakan, A.; Ozsoy, S. Y.
    The study was designed to determine the blood levels of omega fatty acids, which have an important role in the etiology of mammary tumours, in healthy and female dogs with mammary tumour. The study was carried out in 9 female dogs with histologically confirmed mammary tumour and a control group with 9 healthy female dogs without clinical mammary neoplasia. 10 ml cephalic blood samples were collected by using a 21G x 1.5.. blood collecting needle into anticoagulated tubes before the surgical removing of the mammary masses. Mastectomy was performed in all female dogs with mammary tumours and all the mammary specimens were sent to laboratory for histopathological examination. According to histopathological diagnosis results, all of the tumours were found to be malignant. Omega-3 levels were found to be higher in healthy female dogs (p<0.001) whereas omega-6 levels were higher in female dogs with mammary tumour (p<0.001). These observations support the notion tha thigh levels of omega-3 fatty acids might proove to have a protective role on mammary tumor formation in female dogs, while increased levels of omega-6 fatty acids may be related to an increased mammary tumor risk. This difference between omega-3 and omega-6 levels was found to be caused mainly by Eicosatrienoic acid. It is concluded that omega fatty acids mayplay an important role in the biological mechanism of mammary tumour in female dogs.
