Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of veterinary medicines, in particular to a boar odorant composition and application thereof.
Background
African Swine fever is an acute, hemorrhagic, virulent infectious disease caused by African Swine virus (ASFV) infecting domestic pigs and various wild pigs (e.g., African wild pigs, European wild pigs). The transmission routes are multiple, the transmission is realized by directly contacting with African swine fever virus infected pigs or African swine fever pollutants, and the respiratory tract and the digestive tract are the most main transmission routes.
In the production process of a pig farm, the work of attracting and checking the temperament of boars is an important ring for improving the breeding performance of the pig farm. In the process of luring and checking the estrus, the sow can not be contacted with different sows. Oestrus in sows is caused by elevated levels of oestrogen in the body. The boar stimulates the sow through olfaction, hearing, vision, touch and the like, so that the central nerve of the sow is excited, and the hypothalamus is stimulated to secrete gonadotropin releasing hormone, the hormone acts on the pituitary, the pituitary is promoted to secrete follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, the estrogen level in the sow is increased, and the sow is oestrous.
Under the situation of the current transverse African swine fever, the use of boars in pig farms to check the situation, induce the situation and the like has great infection risks, and a plurality of pig farms suffer from serious losses caused by the risks. Trying to find out that the boars are driven to the sows to check the situation, induce the situation and the like, if one of the boars has the African swine fever virus or one of the links is not completely disinfected, cross infection is easily caused, the African swine fever is rapidly spread to the whole pig farm, and great loss is caused. In addition, the boars are used for sow luring, and the defects of high production cost, complex operation, large workload, low operation safety and the like exist. Therefore, a new estrus-inducing mode needs to be selected again to replace boars in a pig farm, so as to reduce cross infection, reduce production cost and workload and improve operation safety. The scheme and the tool which can replace boars to realize sow oestrus detection and oestrus induction are significant.
The boar odorant can imitate boar odor to stimulate oestrus of sows. In countries like Europe and America, the research of boar odorants began in the last 60 s (Patterson, 1968), and the boar odorants are currently used in pig farms for decades, with mature application schemes and remarkable effects (Shrestha, 2001; John J, 2019). Nowadays, under the environment of spreading African swine fever, the application of boar odorants in pig farms is particularly important.
The smell of the pig is developed, most pig farms in China currently use an imported Boar odorant product, namely a pheromone Boar Better, the main component of the pheromone Boar odor is Boar Saliva Analog (BSATM), namely Boar Saliva Analog, and the product can replace boars to be used for sow emotion check and induction. The product comprises 3 components: androstenone, androstenol, and quinoline. The product only emits one color (blue).
The smell of the sow is perceived as a taste from the reaction of the signal molecule, usually an aromatic molecule, in the boar, in combination with the corresponding ligand. It has been reported in the literature that androstenone is one of boar pheromone molecules, and is present in saliva and fat tissue of boars, and plays a role in transmitting information and stimulating oestrus of sows. It has been reported in the literature that androstenol is also a boar pheromone molecule and functions similarly to androstenone.
However, the above products still have drawbacks in production practice. Particularly, the utilization of boars to realize the emotion detection and induction of sows is based on various factors such as taste, sound, touch and the like of the boars, and not only boar saliva or boar saliva analogues. The boar saliva analogue is only one of the necessary conditions for replacing boars to execute the functions of examining and inducing the oestrus of sows. In addition, the taste of boars includes not only the pheromone molecular taste of boar saliva but also the harassing taste of boars themselves.
The primary Boar odorant product used in the prior art, the pheromone bone setter, is only a Boar saliva analog, which is a simulation of Boar saliva taste, only partially replacing Boar odors. Therefore, the limitation of the method is obvious in the process of using the pheromone Boar Better to realize the oestrus check and oestrus induction of the sows.
In the process of utilizing boars to check and induce the estrus of sows, the odor of the boars, namely the taste of saliva and the harassing taste of bodies are within 1 meter near the front of the sows, and the sows can smell the odor and make corresponding reactions. The pheromone Boar cutter only has the taste of Boar saliva, and can only partially simulate boars to realize the emotion check and induction of sows. Furthermore, when the Fermont Boar cutter is used for checking the estrus and inducing the estrus of the sows, the efficiency is not high when the boars are not used, the situation that some sows are estrous but can not be found out can be met during checking the estrus, and the estrus inducing effect is not ideal as that of the boars. The underlying reason for this is that it does not fully or nearly fully simulate the smell of a boar or simulate the boar itself.
In addition, in practical application, the regular use of boar odorants is twice a day, i.e. once each morning and afternoon. At present, most domestic pig farms depend on manual work, so that management is relatively imperfect, and if only one color is sprayed, workers may miss administration in the afternoon in some cases according to subjective judgment.
In the prior art, a boar model (for example, CN201921662902.6) is used to look up and induce the temperament by combining the vision with the hearing of boar calls. Or a boar robot is utilized, wherein a boar odor generator is arranged, and the boar odor generator can attract the emotion through vision and smell. However, the sense of smell and touch of pigs is the most sensitive, and the vision is weak, so that the pig cannot see things without being close to the object. And the reaction of the pig to the light stimulation is much weaker than that of the sound stimulation, and the discrimination on the light intensity, the object image and the color is also poor. Therefore, the visual effect of the boar model and the boar robot is not great.
Therefore, the sow estrus inducing method in the prior art has the defect that the estrus inducing method is single or the estrus inducing effect is poor. In the prior art, a method for inducing estrus of sows mainly utilizes the olfactory effect of an odorant, and a scheme for stimulating touch sense and auditory sense of the sows at the same time is lacked.

Test groups: the boar odor detection method comprises the steps of firstly turning on a boar sound-calling switch in a boar nose model, then touching the boar nose model with a sow, finally spraying the boar odor agent composition provided by the invention, and substituting boars for luring and checking the situation by a mode of combining hearing, touch and smell.
Boar control group: adopts the traditional boar estrus inducing and checking mode.
Drug control group: the spray of the pheromone Boar setter is applied to sows to lure/check the oestrus of the sows.
(1) Effect verification of combined application of boar odorant composition A2 and pig nose model
TABLE 7 statistics of the results of the test and control groups
(2) Effect verification of combined application of boar odorant composition B2 and pig nose model
TABLE 8 statistics of results of test and control groups
(3) Effect verification of combined application of boar odorant composition C2 and pig nose model
TABLE 9 statistics of the results of the test and control groups
According to the results shown in tables 7-9, it can be seen that the combination of the boar odorant composition and the pig nose model can effectively substitute boars for estrus induction, and the effect is significantly better than that of the boar odorant administration group and the drug control group. The boar simulation method proves that the boar odorant composition and the pig nose model are applied in a combined mode, and the boar simulation method simulates boars comprehensively through the combination of touch, smell and hearing, so that the estrus induction effect on sows can be obviously enhanced.
