Meat tenderness studies : 1. Electrical stimulation-delayed chilling of beef carcasses. 2. Protein quality of pressurized meat

Creator:: Ali, Elgasim Elgasim
Abstract:: A 2x2 factorial experimental design with 2 replications was used to study the effects of a combination of electrical stimulation and delayed chilling of pre-rigor muscle on meat characteristics. Twenty Standard and Good grade beef cattle were slaughtered and 5 carcasses were assigned to each of the 4 treatments. Meat...

Effects of forage quality and type of protein supplement on intake and digestibility in beef steers and performance of postpartum beef cows

Creator:: White, Jenny J.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of forage quality and supplemental undegradable intake protein (UIP) level on intake, digestibility, and performance of beef cattle. In Exp. 1, five ruminally cannulated steers (BW = 456 ± 6 kg) were used in a 6 x 5 incomplete Latin square with...

The ability of a yeast-derived cell wall preparation to minimize toxic effects of high-alkaloid tall fescue straw in beef cattle

Creator:: Merrill, Melissa L.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the influence of a yeast-derived cell wall preparation (YCW) on forage intake and digestibility, ruminal fermentation characteristics, serum prolactin and prolactin stores, and milk production in beef cattle consuming high-alkaloid tall fescue straw. In Exp. 1, 16 Angus x Hereford ruminally cannulated steers (200...
