The effect of varying levels of readily available carbohydrates on urea utilization

Creator:: Wright, Rodney Joseph
Abstract:: The object of this research was to study the effect of readily available carbohydrates (RAC) upon the utilization of urea in fattening rations and to determine the effect upon carcass characteristics that determine quality and yield grades. A 2 x 2 latin square designed feedlot trial comparing urea at 0.5%...

Oxytocin synthesis and release by the bovine corpus luteum

Creator:: Abdelgadir, Salaheldin Eltigani
Abstract:: Four experiments were conducted to determine oxytocin concen tration of bovine luteal tissue at different stages of the estrous cycle and to study the effects of prostaglandins F₂α (PGF₂α), E₂ (PGE₂), luteinizing hormone (LH), cycloheximide, colchicine and cytochalasin B on oxytocin synthesis and release in vitro. In experiment 1, luteal...

The Effects of In Ovo Feeding of Fatty Acids and Antioxidants on Broiler Chicken Hatchability and Chick Tissue Lipids

Creator:: Schaal, Travis P.
Abstract:: Hatchability of broiler eggs has not increased over the last twenty years. Increasing hatchability with in ovo technology may be possible through feeding metabolic modulators to the developing embryo. Exogenous fatty acids and antioxidants provided during incubation may enhance polyunsaturated fatty acid, lipid, and antioxidant status of the chicken embryo....

Alfalfa protein concentrate in milk replacer formulas for dairy calves

Creator:: Mohyeldin, Mohamed Taha
Abstract:: To reduce the loss of feeding calves during the nursing period and to conserve milk for human consumption research has been conducted to develop milk replacer formulas which result in calf performance comparable to that of milk. In the first section of this investigation different aspects of utilization of fats,...

The nutritive interrelationships of tallow and urea in ruminants

Creator:: Phillips, Ralph L.
Abstract:: The object of this study was to observe the effect of tallow plus urea in vitro and in vivo. The study was carried out in three parts; an in vitro fermentation study, a metabolism trial and a feedlot trial. The in vitro study was conducted using a 4 x 2...

Effect of nutrition on reproductive performance of young female mink

Creator:: Polonen, Ilpo Juhani
Abstract:: Two distinct experiments were conducted. Experiment 1 was conducted to investigate the effects of nutritional conditioning and flushing as a means of improving reproductive performance of female mink. In Exp. 2, vegetable oil and corn syrup were fed during lactation to ascertain whether this nutritional regimen would improve growth of...

Evaluation of bamboo as livestock forage and applications of Yucca schidigera and Quillaja saponaria products in agriculture

Creator:: Greenway, Stephanie L.
Abstract:: Byproducts of bamboo processing, such as leaves and branches, may have potential as a livestock feedstuff. The objectives of this study were to evaluate seasonal changes in proximate composition of several bamboo species and reed canarygrass, and subsequently determine the digestibility of bamboo in ponies. Monthly samples of Phyllostachys bissetii,...

Nutritional and managerial considerations for wintering beef cattle in the northern Great Basin

Creator:: Brandyberry, Steven D.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine effects of year and season on diet quality of beef cattle grazing northern Great Basin rangelands from 1990 to 1993. Forage quality was high early in the growing season, then declined as seasons progressed (P<.05). Plant chemical composition was higher early in the growing...

Characterization and cloning of a cDNA encoding an adipocyte-specific membrane protein

Creator:: Killefer, John
Abstract:: The accumulation of excessive fat is a serious concern in both the livestock production and human health fields. Obesity is a condition of excessive energy storage in the form of body fat ( triacylglycerols ). The cellular basis for obesity is not yet understood but numerous factors have been suggested....
