Record 4 2011-11-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Animal Diseases
DEF

A disease of beef cows with large energy requirements, e.g. during very cold weather or when fed poor quality roughage with low energy content and poor digestibility. The abomasum impacts with dry roughage and the abdomen distends on the right; clinical signs are scant feces and emaciation.

CONT

Abomasal impaction. Impaction of the abomasum develops in pregnant beef cows during cold winter months when cattle have decreased water intake and are fed poor-quality roughage. It also has been seen in feedlot cattle fed a variety of mixed rations containing chopped or ground roughage (straw, hay) and cereal grains and in late-pregnancy dairy cows on similar feeds. Complete anorexia, scant feces, moderate distention of the abdomen, weight loss, and weakness are usually the initial signs. Body temperature is usually normal but may be subnormal during cold weather. A mucoid nasal discharge tends to collect at the external nares and on the muzzle; the muzzle is usually dry and cracked due to the failure of the animal to lick its nostrils and to the effects of dehydration. The heart rate may be increased, and mild dehydration is common.

DEF

Estado de sobrecarga en el cual dicha víscera [abomaso] se encuentra distendida por presentar en su interior cantidades anormalmente elevadas de material alimenticio, el cual suele ser de consistencia fibrosa y seca. Esto conlleva a un estado obstructivo subagudo a crónico, impidiendo que el paso del contenido pre-estomacal al intestino delgado ocurra en forma normal [...] se caracteriza por anorexia, constipación, distensión y dolor abdominal, enflaquecimiento progresivo con pérdida del estado general, deshidratación, debilidad y muerte.

CONT

En los bovinos es más frecuente en hembras preñadas durante el último tercio de la gestación. Las causas que pueden desencadenar la impactación del abomaso son múltiples, y se agrupan en primarias o secundarias. Se consideran primarias cuando la impactación ocurre como consecuencia de las características de la dieta que los animales consumen.

Subject field(s)
  • Food Industries

CONT

Making Cheese from Curdled Milk. Cheesemaking capitalises on the curdling of milk. First, the milk is carefully selected to make sure there are no antibiotics or harmful agents that could affect the process. The milk is then heated and held at a given temperature for a short period to destroy any harmful bacteria (i.e. pasteurisation). Special starter cultures are then added to the warm milk and change a very small amount of the milk sugar into lactic acid. This acidifies the milk at a much faster rate and prepares it for the next stage. Rennet (mainly chymosin) is then added to the milk and within a short time a curd is produced.

CONT

The milk is than coagulated with rennet, a substance containing clotting enzymes. The clotted milk goes through a cutting and heating process, separating the curd and whey.

CONT

Curdled milk.

OBS

rennet: Extract from the stomachs of calves and lambs which contains the enzyme rennin, used to curdle milk in foods such as cheese and junket.
