Uterine flushings were collected three times at predetermined intervals from 11 mixed-breed beef cows and cultured for Brucella abortus . Prior to sampling, all cows had aborted fetuses from which brucellae had been isolated. Initial collections were made between 21 and 34 days following abortion. The second flushing was conducted at the onset of injections used for inducing superovulation and the third flushing was conducted 6 to 8 days after the ensuing estrus. The latter two flushes were conducted between 60 and 120 days following abortion. Brucellae were isolated from uterine flushings collected from 6 of the 11 cows on the initial round of sampling. Cultures of all subsequent uterine flushings collected before and after injections for superovulation were negative. It was concluded that the superovulatory treatment is not likely to reactivate the release of brucellae into the uterine lumen during the period when embryos are normally collected. |
