Abstract

Several pre-analytical variables influence hematological results, including anticoagulant use, storage temperature, and time between blood sample collection and analysis. Delayed sample analysis owing to prolonged storage could result in erythrogram profiles, which could complicate the interpretation of the resulting data. This study investigated the erythrogram profile of tripotassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (K3EDTA) in blood samples stored for 48 h at 4°C. Ten healthy blood samples of Ongole crossbred cattle were collected into K3EDTA tubes from the jugular or coccygeal veins and analyzed for erythrogram profiles (erythrocyte counts, hemoglobin levels, hematocrit value, and erythrocyte morphology). Blood sample analysis for the control (0 h) was performed within ± 1.5 hours after collection, then the samples were refrigerated (4°C) and analyzed at 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, and 48 h. The results showed increased (p < 0.05) erythrocyte counts and hematocrit values after 9–24 and 6–48 h of storage, respectively. There was a significant difference in erythrocyte diameter between 0 h and other time observations (p < 0.05). Echinocytes were observed at 0 h of storage and continued to increase up to 48 h. Hypochromasia was also found at 6 to 48 hours of storage. Therefore, the analysis of blood samples for erythrogram parameters should be performed as soon as possible, preferably within three hours after collection, to ensure clinically reliable results.

Abstract

Indonesia has significant potential in the beef and dairy cattle sectors but faces challenges in improving the genetic quality of livestock. Embryo Transfer (ET) is a biotechnological approach that can enhance genetic quality and livestock productivity. This study aims to examine and analyze the factors affecting the success rate of pregnancies in FH dairy cattle as recipients of embryo transfer at Balai Embrio Ternak (BET) Cipelang. Secondary data from BET Cipelang (2017-2023) were used, including variables such as embryo quality, transfer methods, recipient age, estrus synchronization methods, and embryo donor breeds. The results showed that good embryo quality (24.55%) and fresh transfer methods (35.19%) significantly increased pregnancy success (p 0.05). Synchronization methods using PGF2 and a combination of Progesterone + PGF2 increased the chances of pregnancy by 3.60 and 3.89 times, respectively, compared to natural estrus. Although not statistically significant, recipient age groups of 3-5 years and 6-9 years had higher pregnancy success rates compared to the 10-12 years age group. The donor breed of embryos did not show a significant effect on pregnancy rates. Therefore, this study concludes that good embryo quality and fresh transfer methods significantly increase the pregnancy success rate in FH dairy cattle at BET Cipelang. The factors influencing pregnancy rates include embryo quality, transfer methods, recipient age, estrus synchronization methods, and donor breed, with embryo quality and fresh transfer methods having the greatest impact. To improve pregnancy rates, it is recommended to select high-quality embryos, use fresh transfer methods, and implement effective estrus synchronization protocols, such as PGF2 injection or a combination of Progesterone + PGF2. Further research involving various recipient cattle breeds and genetic and environmental factors is also advised.
