  • Chairman : M. Mireille MEYLAN
09:00 INT1 "Prudent use of antimicrobials in cattle in the peri- and postoperative period" > M. Mireille MEYLAN

Objectif(s) : Increasing rates of antimicrobial resistances represent a threat to human and animal health worldwide. In order to preserve the efficacy and availability of antimicrobial drugs for bovine patients, the principles of prudent use of antimicrobials must be strictly implemented. The lecture will review indications for antimicrobial drugs during and after surgical procedures in cattle as well as strategies to minimize their use, e.g. through optimal antisepsis and surgical technique. Considerations for the choice of adequate antimicrobial drugs according to prudent use principles will be discussed for the most common surgical procedures in cattle.

  • Chairman : D. Derek Foster
11:30 INT2 "Antimicrobial resistance in bovine: development of future drugs without negative impact" > D. Derek Foster Measurement of antibiotic concentrations in the gastrointestinal tract has historically been difficult and costly to perform. Recently we have developed techniques to obtain this data over time in cattle. These techniques provide new opportunities to assess the risk of enteric bacterial antimicrobial resistance, and correlate pharmacokinetic data with changes in fecal bacteria. Using these methods, we can explore drug properties that either increase or decrease the drug concentrations in the GI tract in order to reduce the negative impact of systemically administered antimicrobials.

Opsomer (26/9/1965) graduated as a DVM at the Gent University (Gent, Belgium) in 1989.Immediately after graduation, he started to work at the department of Reproduction, Obstetrics and Herd Health at the same university. His main interest was going to fertility and herd health control in high yielding dairy herds. In 1995 he obtained a masters degree (Ms) in animal production with a thesis entitled: 'Energy metabolism in the high yielding dairy cow'. In 1999 he defended his PhD thesis entitled: 'Postpartum anoestrus in high yielding dairy cows: a field study'. In November 2002 he became diplomate of the European College of Animal Reproduction (ECAR), and in 2003 diplomate of the European College of Bovine Health Medicine (ECBHM). At the moment he is associate professor of bovine herd health at the Veterinary Faculty of the Gent University. Besides educating undergraduate and graduate students, he is currently supervising multiple PhD students researching a variety of aspects of bovine herd health and reproduction.

  • Chairman : F. Fiona KENYON
09:00 INT4 "Targeted treatments in domestic ruminants (cattle, sheep, goat)" > F. Fiona KENYON

Objectif(s) : Worm infection is ubiquitous in grazing ruminants worldwide and is a major cause of production limiting disease. The development of anthelmintic resistance has forced judicious use of these chemicals. Targeting treatment, thereby leaving a proportion of the worm population unexposed to drugs has been shown to optimise drug use, with the most suitable indicators to determine treatment depending on host species, farming goal and worms present.

  • Chairman : S. Sarah BONNET
11:30 INT5 "Ticks and climate changes" > S. Sarah BONNET Ticks are the most important vectors of pathogens affecting both domestic and wild animals worldwide. The geographical distribution of several tick species is believed to have expanded due to both the intensification of human and animal activity, and socio-economic and environmental changes. The recent colonization by Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus of East-African regions provides an excellent illustration of this risk. Consequently, the emergence or re-emergence of tick-borne-diseases (TBD) is a growing threat for both humans and animals. Indeed, changes in climate and human practices are spurring extension of the geographical distribution of exotic TBD, as illustrated by recent incursions of the virus responsible for Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever in Europe. It is well known that both abiotic (temperature, rainfall and relative humidity) and biotic (animal abundance and herbaceous strata) factors influence tick densities and activity locally. However, to date, detailed studies on the impact of climate change on tick population densities are still lacking.

  • Chairman : I. Inna Lysnyansky
09:00 INT7 "Mycoplasma bovis mastitis: a new threat in Western Europe ?" > I. Inna Lysnyansky Mastitis due to Mycoplasma bovis has become a worldwide problem causing substantial economic losses to the dairy industry and affecting animal welfare. Notably, in contrast to the US, where M. bovis-mastitis has been reported for decades, until recently the most frequent manifestation of M. bovis infection in Europe was bovine respiratory disease. However, this situation changed in the mid -2000s when M. bovis-associated mastitis emerged in several European countries and Israel.

11:30 INT8 "Nutrition and mastitis" > A. Alejandros Ceballos Mastitis is still the most costly disease for the dairy industry all wide world. Most of the cases, subclinical and clinical, are caused by mastitis pathogens. However, there are risk factors that increase the incidence of the disease when they are present on the herds. Nutritional and metabolic disorders, especially in fresh cows, have been associated with a higher risk of mastitis around calving. This lecture seeks for providing up-to-date information about the association between cow nutrition and mastitis.
