- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoAnálisis bibliográfico sobre el uso de la saccharina rustica en la alimentación animal(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2021) Castillo Crespo, Diana Marisol; Iñiguez Heredia, Franklin Alfredo; 0302715511The objective of the research carried out is to analyze the rustic Saccharina as food in the different species of animals in production, to supply the nutritional deficit or to couple it in new diets. Saccharina is a product obtained from the solid fermentation process of sugar cane, devoid of buds and leaves, supplemented with urea and minerals; where, it potentiates its nutritional composition. In monogastric and polygastric animals, energy competition is emphasized compared to dry grains, as is the case with the supply of 70% of Saccharina in rams, where there was a difference of only 5% of energy in corn and wheat. The possibility of replacing forages up to 60% in guinea pigs is also highlighted. Besides that it is a product that can be used in birds, as in the case of geese, which are not affected if it is included between 30% to 60%. In the same way, in ruminants, a better behavior of Saccharina and the production in dual-purpose and dairy cattle are emphasized. Among the restrictions that act against the quality of the product is the particle size, the thickness of the mattress and the fermentation time, which must be 0.5 cm, 5 cm and 48-36 hours respectively. Saccharina rustica boasts high levels of protein, energy and minerals; using it for animal consumption, in addition to replacing forages and concentrates in certain percentages; Likewise, it has been used to mix with feed and commercial balanced, giving good results at low costs.

- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoAplicación de dos técnicas de estimulación hormonal para extracción espermática en atelopus nanay, atelopus bomolochos y ctenophryne aequatorialis(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Coronel Sarmiento, Helen Nicole; Zhumi Cajamarca, Jefferson Mauricio; Argudo Garzón, Daniel Ernesto; 0350191862; 0150765733Ecuador is recognized for its great diversity of amphibian species currently threatened worldwide. In this context, this study evaluated the feasibility of two hormonal techniques (GnRH and hCG) to improve sperm performance in three species: Atelopus nanay, Atelopus bomolochos, and Ctenophryne aequatorialis, in the Azuay province. The application of hormones is effective in stimulating sperm release in amphibians. Previous studies have obtained favorable results using GnRH and hCG in different species. The conservation of amphibians under human care has become crucial due to the decline of in situ populations. Currently, there is an amphibian conservation center of the Amaru Foundation in Cuenca, Ecuador. Sperm collection was conducted in three species of amphibians with hormone doses of 4 μg/g and five μg/g, respectively. The results show significant differences in sperm parameters between species and hormone treatments applied. It was demonstrated that the application of GnRH and hCG generated a high motility index between 3.5- and 5.5-hours post-application and a high sperm concentration between 2.5- and 3.5-hours post-application of the treatments in Atelopus nanay and Atelopus bomolochos. No relevant results were obtained for the species Ctenophryne aequatorialis.

- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoBiocicatrización del extracto de Jungia Rugosa less sobre heridas quirúrgicas en conejos(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Proaño Barreiro, Marco Joaquin; Castillo Hidalgo, Edy Paúl; 0104937016ABSTRACT Jungia rugosa, known as Human Meat, is a medicinal plant native to the Andes. It has been used ancestrally for the healing of wounds; its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and healing properties are related to its content of flavonoids and polyphenolic compounds. This study evaluated the healing effect of Jungia rugosa extract on postsurgical wounds using nine rabbits as biological models. Two semi-solid creams at 5% and 10% were prepared with its extract, which were compared with the traditional use of the plant. The non-invasive surgical procedure consisted of the creation of three 2cm surgical wounds in different anatomical areas (loin, right and left scapula). The rabbits were randomly assigned to three treatment groups: T1 (5%), T2 (10%), and T0 (Control), achieving complete wound healing eight days after the start of healing. Despite not observing statistically significant differences in the healing process between the traditional use of the plant and the cream, the healing obtained by the use of Jungia rugosa proved to equal and/or exceed the results obtained with other commercial products. It was determined that treatment T1 (5%) offers higher quality healing, indicating that the application of creams could be an effective alternative to take advantage of the medicinal properties of this plant. This choice is based on the limitation of being unable to preserve or store the macerates produced in the field, which could promote greater use of the plant in future research.

- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoCambios clínicos y conductuales post operatorios de un paciente con SRB: estudio de caso(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Idrovo Calle, Andrea Nohelia; Castillo Hidalgo, Edy Paul; 0605694470The objective of the present investigation was to evaluate the clinical signs and behavioral modifications of a 2-year-old American Bully canine patient, affected by Brachycephalic Respiratory Syndrome (BRS), during the postoperative period. Prior to the scheduled surgery, the medical history (HC) was performed, which allowed us to document the patient's post-surgical changes. In addition, the response of the respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, skeletal muscle and neurosensory systems to the stress imposed by exercise was evaluated through the 6-minute effort test, and animal welfare evaluations were also carried out through freedom of sleep. and comfort, feeding, and interaction with other dogs over a 5-day period. The surgical procedure consisted of two phases: the first involved the correction of the elongated soft palate through staphylectomy, while the second phase included rhinoplasty and correction of nares stenosis. Additionally, the same tests were carried out to collect post-surgery data. After the completion of the surgery, the patient remained under observation during which time an episode of respiratory dyspnea occurred, a phenomenon considered “common” in these patients attributed to the presentation of postsurgical laryngeal edema. Subsequently, saturation remained between 87% and 96%. % SPO2, with an average of 91% SPO2, respiratory sounds decreased significantly, and the feeding process, previously affected by SBR, showed improvement on the first postoperative day, an increase in the quality of sleep and rest of the patient was also observed.
- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoCaracterización de semen de zángano y efecto de la jalea real en la crio preservación de los espermatozoides(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Enríquez Duma, Carlos Fernando; Lalvay Quezada, Jonathan Santiago; Argudo Garzón, Daniel Ernesto; 0105623466; 0105936900Pollinator populations, particularly bees, have significantly declined due to environmental changes and the indiscriminate use of pesticides, affecting the number of hives worldwide. This has decreased their pollination service, triggering a low agricultural yield that jeopardizes food security. Cryopreservation offers a potential solution for species preservation. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effect of adding royal jelly to the cryopreservation of drone spermatozoa, for which seminal samples were extracted from 396 drones. Initially, the fresh semen was characterized as a starting point; then two treatments were prepared; T1 DMSO as a cryoprotectant along with a TCG-based diluent (tris, citric acid, glucose) containing egg yolk supplemented with 1% jelly, and T2 without jelly supplementation (control). These samples were cryopreserved to evaluate seminal quality after thawing. The results obtained indicated a 38.4% sperm collection efficiency and an average ejaculate volume of 0.8 µL, with a sperm concentration of 2.8 ± 0.43 X 106. In addition, significance for the morphology variable was expressed, while the motility, membrane integrity, and viability variables showed no significant differences. The data were subjected to the Student’s T-test. In conclusion, the post-cryopreservation data of drone semen revealed limited benefits; however, experimentation with the inclusion of percentages other than those used in this study is necessary to optimize the results
- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoCaracterización sanitaria de bovinos previo al faenamiento en el camal del cantón Cuenca(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Lopez Lapo, Cristhian Alexander; Iñiguez Heredia, Franklin; 1105227159In the Municipal Slaughterhouse of Cuenca, Azuay province, the cattle's Body Condition (BC) before slaughter was evaluated. For this, specific evaluation parameters were determined, such as age, physiological constants (heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature), sex, breed, and origin, to analyze their influence on BC. Five hundred animals were sampled to analyze the variables, representing a single experimental unit. The results showed that most heads of cattle came from Molleturo with 17%, followed by Cordero and Valle with 13% and 12%, respectively. Regarding the breed variable, 90% of the sample were crossbreeds. The mean age was 2.55 with a median of 2.50, and a correlation of 0.10 was determined between the BC variable and age, showing a value (P = 0.500) between both variables. Regarding sex, 57% were males and 43% were females, with males exhibiting a better body condition of 3.10 compared to females with 2.96, reflecting a p-value of (p = 0.0001). According to the evaluation of physiological constants, all fell within the normal range, and there was a correlation of 0.45 between the variables heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR), indicating that the animals are healthy and fit for the slaughter process. Keywords: Cattle, body condition, slaughter, health.

- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoConstrucción de biomodelo para cateterización intravenosa en pacientes caninos(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Cevallos Durán, Manuel Francisco; Castillo Hidalgo, Edy Paul; 0106983042Peripheral canalization is one of the most practiced techniques by veterinary professionals. They are techniques that consume time, require practice, and generate pain. Consequently, the creation of a 3D-printed model of the canine forelimb will facilitate adequate intravenous cannulation since it guarantees the improvement of the quality of work, thus reducing stress in our patients. 3D printing is a manufacturing process in which a three-dimensional object is created from a digital model using successive layers of material. Unlike traditional manufacturing methods, this adds material layer by layer to build the desired object. One of the critical processes in 3D printing is obtaining a digital model, which can be achieved through medical scanning techniques, such as CT or MRI, which capture the patient's anatomy. These images are converted into 3D digital models, which are then used to generate the design file for the printer. The use of models in intravenous catheterization training provides several advantages. Students have the opportunity to become familiar with canine vascular anatomy and structure in a safe and risk-free manner. They can practice identifying relevant veins, assessing emerging tissues’ resistance and response , and refining catheter insertion and advancement techniques. Furthermore, models allow the repetition of procedures, which facilitates gradual learning and error correction. Keywords: Catheterization, 3D, cannulation, computed tomography (CT), peripheral pathways
- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoConsumo de tortas protéicas para abejas con la adición de aceites esenciales de cedrón, manzanilla y toronjil(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Muñoz Ortiz , Federico Xavier; Cuenca Condoy, Mercy del Cisne; 0103900288The study evaluated the consumption of base protein cakes with the addition of essential oils in Apis Mellifera bees, using four hives distributed in a 4 x 4 design, with four treatments: T0 (Control Base cake), T1 (Cedron cake), T2 (Lemon balm cake), and T3 (Chamomile cake) for 30 days, with a rotation frequency of 7 days, an adaptation period of seven days, using video surveillance system to determine food preference outside the hives. The variables analyzed were feed consumption, consumption time, and palatability of the protein cakes. The analysis of results showed a significant difference (p<0.05) in feed consumption, with the highest feed consumption for treatment T3 (chamomile cake) at 31.30 g/day and the lowest consumption for T1 (Cedron cake) at 5.10 g/day. Regarding the preference or palatability of the cakes outside the hive, there was a significant difference between treatments (p<0.05) being more palatable the cake enriched with chamomile oil at 31.28 g/day. It is concluded that using medicinal plant oils, particularly chamomile essential oil, significantly improves the palatability of protein cakes intended for bee (Apis mellifera) consumption. Keywords: Apis mellifera, Protein Cake, Essential oil, Lemon balm, Chamomile, Cedron.
- ÍtemSolo MetadatosContención Quimica en gatos agresivos mediante cámara de vaporización de acepromacina(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Cobos Cuesta, Edisson Fernando; Rubio Arias, Pablo Geovanny; 0104963418In this study, inhaled chemical restraint of cats using an acepromazine vaporization chamber is analyzed as a method for calming and restraining aggressive cats. A comparative analysis showed a significant correlation between Ac2 and Ac1 treatments at a dosage of 2 mg and 3 mg per kilogram body weight, respectively, previously demonstrated in 24 cats in the city of Cuenca.Data collected included the time of onset of effects in the vaporization chamber, confinement and recovery time, and adverse effects after nebulization. A moderate correlation was observed between treatments, with acepromazine 2 and 3 mg treatments being similar in terms of sedation and recovery time, indicating suitable sedation in aggressive cats.It was observed that a higher concentration of acepromazine resulted in a more pronounced sedative effect, and overweight cats showed a greater response to restraint. Overall, the results indicate that acepromazine inhalation chemical restraint in aggressive cats helps maintain stable restraint, reducing signs of aggression by approximately 1-2 degrees on a scale evaluating six major signs. This study highlights the importance of better understanding feline behavior and its implications for the management of nervous or aggressive cats. It is based on the compilation and classification of information from bibliographic references and a database obtained in this research. Keywords: chemical restraint, cats, aggressive, nebulization, acepromazine, inhaled.
