Markers of acute stress in pigs.
Original language description
This study explores the biological validation of markers of acute stress in pigs subjected to transportation for slaughter. The stress markers selected for monitoring were neopterin and cortisol. Their levels in pig serum were measured for two porcine stress syndrome genotypes, NN and Nn, after a 30-min transport to a slaughterhouse. Blood samples were withdrawn before transport (control group) and immediately after the animals' arrival (experimental group). The values of neopterin and cortisol measuredbefore the transport were 5.60?1.65 nmol/l and 273.54?66.17 nmol/l respectively. After the transfer, the concentration of cortisol rose significantly compared to the control (355.69?85.13 nmol/l, p<0.01). Neopterin concentrations in the serum (8.25?1.60nmol/l) were also significantly higher (p<0.01) after transportation. The elevated concentrations of both analytes were found to be independent of the genotype. These results document the stimulation of the endocrine system and the immun

Ukazatelé akutního stresu u prasat
Czech description
Studie se zabývá ověřením významnosti ukazatelů akutního stresu (neopterinu a kortizolu) u prasat transportovaných na porážku. Hladina ukazatelů v séru byla stanovena u dvou stresových genotypů NN a Nn, a to po 30 minutovém transportu. Hodnoty neopterinua kortizolu před přepravou (kontrolní skupina) byly 5.60?1.65 nmol/l a 273.54?66.17 nmol/l. Po přepravě byla zjištěna koncentrace kortizolu a neopterinu významně vyšší (p<0.01) ve srovnání s kontrolou (355.69?85.13 nmol/l; 8.25?1.60 nmol/l). Zvýšené koncentrace nebyly závislé na genotypu. Tyto výsledky dokumentují stimulaci endokrinní soustavy a imunitního systému u zvířat transportovaných na jatky.
