چکیده انگلیسی
The objective of this study was to evaluate relationships between measurements of temperature-humidity index (THI) and rectal, vaginal, and udder surface temperatures in lactating cows exposed to heat stress (HS). In experiment 1, 12 multiparous and 8 primiparous Holstein cows experienced a THI ranging from 69 to 76 at 2000 to 1000 h and THI from 74 to 82 at 1000 to 2000 h (peaked at 82 from 1400 to 1800 h). Cows were exposed to HS 10 h daily for 21 d. Measurements of rectal temperature (RT) and udder surface temperature were collected at 1000 and 1500 h (±30 min). Vaginal temperature was monitored every 10 min using digital loggers, averaged over 1 h, and paired with corresponding rectal and udder surface temperature data. In experiment 2, 12 multiparous Holstein cows experienced a THI ranging from 60 to 76 at 2000 to 1000 h and THI from 69 to 83 at 1000 to 2000 h (peaked at 83 from 1600 and 1900 h), eliciting 10 h/d of HS for 7 d. Rectal and udder surface temperatures were analyzed at 0700 and 1500 h (±30 min). Vaginal temperature was recorded and analyzed as indicated in experiment 1. Afternoon THI showed weak correlations with surface temperature (r = 0.19, n = 420 in experiment 1; r = 0.23, n = 84 in experiment 2), weak to moderate correlations with RT (r = 0.34, n = 366 in experiment 1; r = 0.26, n = 84 in experiment 2), and moderate correlations with vaginal temperature (r = 0.34, n = 175 in experiment 1; r = 0.35, n = 40 in experiment 2). Moreover, vaginal temperature increased 0.10 and 0.22°C per unit of THI (R2 = 0.15 in experiment 1; R2 = 0.40 in experiment 2). Afternoon vaginal temperature strongly correlated with RT (r = 0.69, n = 131 in experiment 1; r = 0.63, n = 37 in experiment 2) and explained 57 (experiment 1) and 68% (experiment 2) of variation in RT. Surface temperature showed moderate to strong correlations with RT (r = 0.57, n = 84) and vaginal temperature (r = 0.74, n = 37) in experiment 2. In conclusion, THI showed a weak to moderate relationship with core body temperatures and explained the increase in rectal and vaginal temperatures experienced by HS cows. Compared with rectal temperature, vaginal temperature showed stronger relationships with THI and can be used to determine thermal load. Udder surface temperature showed a moderate to strong relationship with core body temperature, and this relationship may support the use of surface temperature data to manage thermal load in HS cows.
