摘要
In this work oxytocin release and milking characteristics during machine milking of mares were investigated. Two experiments were performed twice each in all animals. In experiment 1 mares were milked twice subsequently and residual milk was collected after milking 2 with injection of oxytocin (10 i.u. i.v.). In experiment 2 mares were also milked twice, but residual milk was collected already after milking 1. Oxytocin concentrations peaked during pre-stimulation and decreased after the teat cups were attached. Total milk yield was 1.1 +/- 0.1 kg during milking 1 and 0.5 +/- 0.1 kg during milking 2 in experiment 1. Residual milk obtained after second milking was 0.7 +/- 0.1 kg. Total milk yield during milking 1 in experiment 2 was also 1.0 +/- 0.1 kg. Residual milk obtained after milking 1 was 0.9 +/- 0.1.kg. As expected there was scarcely milk left in experiment 2 after the residual milk was collected. A short peak without plateau phase characterizes milk flow curves in both experiments. Obviously oxytocin release during machine milking was insufficient for complete udder emptying.
