Alpha-tocopherol is a potential diagnostic indicator of metabolic diseases in early lactation dairy cows, α-tocopherol is a potential diagnostic indicator of metabolic diseases in early lactation dairy cows

Creator:: Qu, Yang
Abstract:: Milk fever (MF), retained placenta (RP), and left displaced abomasum (LDA) are three common and costly metabolic diseases in cows during the first days of lactation. Some studies suggest that circulating concentrations of α-tocopherol (ATOC) are decreased by these three diseases. It is, however, unknown if and how long lower...

Enzyme Supplementation of Broiler Chicken Diets Containing Whole Flax Seed as a Means to Increase n-3 Fatty Acids in Human Diets

Creator:: Apperson, K. Denise
Abstract:: Flax seed is a rich source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). Feeding broiler birds flax seed can increase n-3 fatty acids (FA) in meat tissues and can increase human intake of n-3 FA. However, non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) in flax seed decrease digestibility of lipids and proteins and have a negative impact...

Effects of High-docosahexaenoic Acid Microalgae and Choline in the Hen Diet on Egg Production and Lipid Metabolism

Creator:: Yonke, Joseph A.
Abstract:: The objectives of the current study were to 1) investigate the effect a high-docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6 n-3, DHA) microalgae product (MAL), and choline dosage in diets containing MAL, on egg production performance, physical egg quality, and nutritional parameters, and 2) determine whether choline dosage influences hepatic lipid metabolism of...

Milk Production, Pasture Performance, and Environmental Sustainability of Specialized Pastures

Creator:: Wilson, Randi L.
Abstract:: This study investigated the effects of diversification strategy through the inclusion of forb and legume based pastures in the feedbase of dairy cows on annual forage production, botanical composition, spring milk yield, N partitioning and methane emissions from dairy cows in Western Oregon. Using a randomized complete block design, 3...

Enzyme Supplementation of Layer Hen Diets Containing Whole Flaxseed to Increase n-3 Fatty Acids in Chicken Eggs

Creator:: Westbrook, Lindsay A.
Abstract:: Flaxseed is a rich source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). Feeding laying hens flax seed can increase n-3 fatty acids content (FA) in eggs, thus increasing human intake of n-3 FA. However, non-starch polysaccharides (NSP), which decreases digestibility of dietary lipids and proteins. Addition of carbohydrase enzymes to flax-based layer diets...

Identification of novel immune molecular pathways and response markers to OmniGen-AF® supplementation in a rat model

Creator:: Branson, Jennifer A.
Abstract:: OmniGen-AF® (OG; Prince Agri Products, Inc., Quincy, IL) is a feed additive containing brewers dehydrated yeast and B-vitamins that supports immune function in ruminant livestock. Targeted profiling of immune-associated genes in whole blood is an effective platform for identification of a) novel molecular pathways and b) immune response markers to...

Evaluating the Impact of Organic Chromium with Flaxseed in Broiler Diets: Effects on Production Performance, Breast Muscle Pathology and Meat Quality Aspects

Creator:: Fraz, Ahmad
Abstract:: This study investigated the impact of organic chromium (Cr) supplementation and flaxseed on live performance, carcass yield, serum metabolites, muscle lipid profile, histopathological aspects, and meat quality parameters. Ninety (n=90), day-old Cobb chicks were fed a corn-soybean meal-based diet containing 0% flaxseed (Control), 10% flaxseed (Diet 1) and Diet 1...

Maternal diet and essential fatty acid metabolism in progeny chickens

Creator:: Bullock, Cheri Jean
Abstract:: During the 21 day incubation period, the fertile egg provides nutrients such as fatty acids for energy and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) for membrane synthesis to the developing chick. The hypothesis tested in the present study is that the type of PUFA fed to the breeder hen can alter tissue...

Role of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma on Prevention/Cure of Mastitis

Creator:: Trindade da Rosa, Fernanda
Abstract:: Mastitis is a major endemic disease in dairy cows resulting in significant economic losses for the dairy industry. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a nuclear receptor that is able to bind and be activated by natural (e.g., fatty acids) and synthetic (e.g. thiazolidinedione) compounds. PPARγ plays important roles...

Nutritional and management strategies of trace mineral supplementation for beef cattle

Creator:: Puerto Hernandez, Gracia Maria
Abstract:: Two studies evaluated the mineral status of supplemented beef cattle over two different methods of supplementation. The objective of study 1 was to evaluate the mineral status at weaning and subsequent post-weaning performance of calves supplemented prior to weaning, with limited-fed supplements fortified with trace minerals (Cu, Se, and Zn)...
