O Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência Animal (PPGCAN) é um programa do Campus Universitário de Castanhal (CCAST) da Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA), Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (EMBRAPA) e Universidade Federal Rural da Amazônia (UFRA). O Programa iniciou o nível de Mestrado em 1999 junto à CAPES/MEC, tendo aprovação de sua proposta de Doutorado junto à agência em 2008, com início da primeira turma em 2009, o que certamente contribuirá à formação de massa crítica regional.Se caracteriza por apresentar um conjunto de disciplinas que repassam aos alunos um embasamento teórico e prático, capacitando os mesmos a aplicarem os conhecimentos adquiridos no avanço regional da produção animal. Direcionando as linhas de pesquisa do curso à nutrição, biotecnologia, pastagens, conservação de recursos genéticos, reprodução, sanidade animal, bovinocultura, bubalinocultura, animais silvestres, ecologia aquática e aquicultura.

Intoxicação experimental por Cestrum laevigatum em bubalinos (Bubalus bubalis)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2010-07-01) MARQUES, Débora Maria Marquiori; BARBOSA NETO, José Diomedes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1516707357889557; RIVERO, Gabriela Riet Correa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7540534565167837
The aim of this study was to determine the toxicity of Cestrum laevigatum for buffalos and characterize the clinical and pathological intoxication. Were used four Murrah buffaloes divided into two groups. Group 1 (buffalo 1 and 2) received 20g/kg of dried leaves of Cestrum laevigatum fed orally, whereas group 2 (buffalo 3 and 4) received 40g/kg. Buffalo 1 (group 1) showed mild clinical signs, characterized by a reduction of ruminal movements and recovered 60 hours after onset of clinical symptoms. Buffalo 2 (group 1) showed no signs. Buffaloes 3 and 4 (Group 2) showed the first signs 26h05min and 37h22min after the end of the administration, respectively. Clinical signs of intoxication were lethargy, anorexia, decrease or absence of ruminal movements, drooling, difficulty breathing, staggering gait, dysmetria, excitement, aggression, constipation, with stools containing mucus and blood, groans, dry nose, drowsiness, paddling movements and death in 44h11min (buffalo 3) and 60h39min (buffalo 4) after administration of the plant. At necropsy, Buffalo 3 revealed capsular and cut surface of liver brownish orange, mild edema of the gallbladder wall, left ventricular endocardium with extensive haematomas and endocardium of the right ventricle with a few petechiae, abomasum mucosa slightly reddish; contents abomasum slightly dry, large intestine with little content slightly dry and surrounded by mucus. In Buffalo 4 capsular and cut surface of liver colored orange, with a clear aspect of nutmeg , mild edema of gallbladder wall, mild splenomegaly, slightly reddish mucosa of the abomasum, small intestine content catarrhal and mucous, and slightly congested meninges. Histologically, the liver of both animals demonstrated marked coagulation and necrosis of hepatocytes in central and intermediate lobular zones and vacuolization of hepatocytes close to the areas of necrosis.

Intoxicação por sal em ovinos e caprinos no estado do Pará

This paper reports the first outbreaks of salt poisoning in sheep and goats in Brazil on a farm in the state of Pará. The evaluation of the facilities and the handling indicates as predisposing factors the excessive intake of mineral mixture and water restriction. The first outbreak occurred in sheep, eight animals (1,46%) were affected from a total of 545 animals and four (50%) of them died. The second and third outbreaks occurred in a herd of 191 goats. In the second outbreak, four animals (2,09) were affected and none died. In the third outbreak, eight goats (4,19%) were affected and two (25%) of them died. In sheep the main clinical signs were recumbency, decrease or absence of cutaneous sensibility, absence of auricular, palpebral and menace reflexes, mydriasis, nystagmus, opisthotonus, spasticity of limbs, somnolence and stupor. Beside this signs observed there were bloat, diarrhea, tachypnea, tachycardia, dehydration and polyuria. The clinical course of the disease in sheep that died ranged from 2 and a half hours to 48 hours. The main clinical signs in the goats were muscle weakness, abnormal posture of the head and neck such us staying with his head down, head and neck rotation, neck extension and lateral deviation of the neck, sternal and lateral recumbency, mydriasis, absence of pupillary reflex to light, stay with pelvic and thoracic limbs abduced or in broad-based, increased flexor reflex, polyuria and intense thirst were observed. They were observed also rumen hypomotility, tachycardia, decreased skin turgor. The clinical course in goats of second outbreak varied from 4 to 24 hours. In the goats of third outbreak who died the evolution ranged by six to eight hours and two to three days in the goats who have recovered. The medium of serum concentration of sodium and potassium of 31 sheep from the same group affected on samples collected during the outbreak revealed hypernatremia (190 mEq/l) and hyperkalemia (8.2 mEq/l), respectively. The mean serum concentrations of sodium and potassium of 36 goats from the same lot of animals affected in the second outbreak in samples taken two days before the onset of clinical signs revealed hypernatremia (167 mEq/l) and the average level of potassium (4.7 mEq/l) within the reference values for the species. The averages of these same parameters in samples from goats in the third outbreak with clinical signs of intoxication (143,7 mEq/l for sodium and 3.9 mEq/l for potassium) were within the reference values. However, the averages of these same parameters in samples of goats in the third outbreak, with clinical signs of intoxication (143.7 mEq/l for sodium and 3.9 mEq/l for potassium), were within the reference values. At necropsy in only one of four sheep there was flattening of the cerebral gyri. Microscopically in this sheep there was a vacuolization of the neuropil in the cerebral cortex with moderate intensity in the intermediary surface and mild on the superficial, with increased of perineural and perivascular spaces. In these areas there was still markedly swollen nucleus of astrocytes and acute neuronal necrosis. Noteworthy macroscopic or microscopic changes were not observed in the goats. The dosages of sodium showed high values in the brain of the poisoning animals, in an ovine value of 3,513 ppm and in two goats, values of 3,703 and 3,675 ppm. Five goats of the third outbreak were treated with dexamethasone and thiamine, intramuscularly, twice daily for two days, and water was offered in small amounts three times a day. All treated animals were recovered in three days. The diagnosis of salt poisoning was based on epidemiology, clinical signs, in the lesions, in the dosages of sodium in serum and brain and in the response to treatment in five goats.
