Therapeutic efficacy of bromelain in treatment of subclinical endometritis in buffaloes

Author(s): SV Bhaskara Reddy, Manda Srinivas, B Chandra Prasad and Makkena Sreenu
Abstract: The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of Bromelain in treatment of subclinical endometritis in buffaloes. Buffaloes (n=60) with a history of repeat breeding were screened through per-rectal examination of the reproductive tract, followed by evaluation of cervical-vaginal mucus score and pH. Buffaloes with subclinical endometritis were randomly allotted to Bromelain (Group I) and E. coli LPS (Group II) groups treated by intrauterine route. Haemato-biochemical findings revealed that differences in neutrophils, lymphocytes and serum cholesterol levels in Group I and II buffaloes were significantly (p<0.01) lower while, serum calcium levels were significantly (p<0.01) higher at subsequent estrus after treatment compared to pre-treatment estrus. Haemoglobin, PCV, serum total protein and phosphorus levels increased non-significantly (p>0.05) whereas AST and ALT levels decreased non-significantly at subsequent estrus after treatment. In conclusion, recovery rates of Group I and II were recorded as 75.00 and 85.50 percent, respectively.
