The objective of this study was to analyze the stress effect, via administration of ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone), on quantity and quality of milk produced and also the indication of stress by alteration of cortisol level. Twelve milking goats were divided in two groups: six animals were subjected to intravenous application of 0.06 UI of ACTH/kg of LW (challenged) and six received placebo solution (control). The challenge occurred during milking with protocol application at 30, 60, 120 and 180 days from […]
