Creator:: Swick, Robert Alphonso
Abstract:: Several experiments were conducted to examine the toxicity of Senecio jacobaea (SJ) in animals resistant to pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) intoxication and to determine the extent of alterations in mineral metabolism as a result of SJ intoxication. Inclusion of SJ into diets containing added copper (Cu) resulted in increased (P<.01) liver...

Abstract:: A series of experiments were conducted to determine the utilization of fibrous feeds by the rabbit. A review of literature was performed to ascertain the results of similar studies. The first two experiments involved various levels of alfalfa substituted for corn or barley. Results indicated that a 50 percent alfalfa...

Abstract:: Senecio jacobaea (tansy ragwort) is a poisonous plant responsible for livestock deaths in the Pacific Northwest. Horses and cattle are susceptible, while sheep are resistant to the toxic action of the pyrrolizidine alkaloids which the plant contains. Hepatic enzymes are responsible for the biotransformation of pyrrolizidine alkaloids into tissue damaging...

Creator:: White, Randy Dee
Abstract:: The Salmonella/mammalian-microsome mutagenicity test was used to evaluate Senecio jacobaea (SJ) plant, Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PA) and metabolites in goat milk, to evaluate response differences with microsomes from several animal species and to compare SJ plant responses to other plants. Bioassessment experiments were conducted to evaluate PA toxicity changes associated with...
