    • Disturbances in Maternal Steroidogenesis and Appearance of Intrauterine Growth Retardation at High-Altitude ... 
      Parraguez Gamboa, Víctor; Mamani, Sandra; Cofre, Eileen; Castellaro, Giorgio; Urquieta Mangiola, Bessie; Reyes Solovera, Mónica de los; Astiz, Susana; González Bulnes, Antonio (Public Library of Science, 2015)
      Pregnancies at high-altitudes are influenced by hypoxia and oxidative stress and frequently affected by IUGR. However, a common thought is that early pregnant women visiting altitude have no major complications for gestation ...
    • Efecto del peso de sacrificio y sexo sobre la canal de corderos lactantes del cruce suffolk down X merino ... 
      Squella Narducci, Fernando; Maino Menéndez, Mario; Köbrich Gruebler, Claus; Morales Silva, María Sol; Pokniak Ramos, José (Universidad de Zulia, 2007)
      The carcasses of thirty suckling lambs (Suffolk Down x German Merino Precocius) were studied to estimate the effect of sex and slaughter weight on: hot carcass weight, carcass length, commercial and true dressing percentages, ...
    • Feeding dry olive cake modifies subcutaneous fat composition in lambs, noting cake resistance to degradation ... 
      Vera, Raúl; Aguilar, Claudio; Lira, Rodrigo; Toro, Paula; Barrales, Luis; Peña, Iván; Squella Narducci, Fernando; Pérez Melendez, Patricio; Quenaya, Javiera; Yutronic, Hanja; Briones, Ignacio (Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2009)
      The purpose of this experiment was to determine the extent to which lamb carcass quality and fat composition could be altered by applying a dry olive cake-based ration instead of a conventional ration or pasture feeding. ...
    • Fertility in a high-altitude environment is compromised by luteal dysfunction: the relative roles of hypoxia ... 
      Parraguez Gamboa, Víctor; Urquieta, Bessie; Pérez, Laura; Castellaro Galdames, Giorgio; Reyes Solovera, Mónica de los; Torres Rovira, Laura; Aguado Martínez, Adriana; Astiz, Susana; González Bulnes, Antonio (BioMed Central, 2013-03-23)
      At high altitudes, hypoxia, oxidative stress or both compromise sheep fertility. In the present work, we tested the relative effect of short- or long-term exposure to high altitude hypobaric hypoxia and oxidative stress on ...
    • Gender and slaughter weight effects on carcass quality traits of suckling lambs from four different genotypes 
      Pérez, P.; Maino Menéndez, Mario; Morales, M. S.; Köbrich Gruebler, Claus; Bardon, C.; Pokniak Ramos, José (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007-07)
      The effects of gender and slaughter weight on carcass quality traits were studied in 114 suckling lambs from four genotypes (Suffolk Down, Merino Precoz Aleman, Suffolk Down—Corriedale and Suffolk Down—Merino Precoz Aleman) ...
    • Survey for antibodies to pestivirus and herpesvirus in sheep, goats, alpacas (Lama pacos), llamas (Lama ...
