Three experiments were conducted (1) to develop and characterize
polyclonal antibodies against ovine adipocyte plasma membranes (APM),
(2) to evaluate the effect of administering the developed antibodies to
lambs on lamb growth and carcass characteristics, and (3) to investigate
the possibility of using the developed antibodies to identify antigenic
components...
Six experiments were carried out with Single Comb White Leghorn laying chickens to
assess the effect of feeding a source of direct-fed microbials (Lactobacillus; Lacto) and its
carrier [condensed cane molasses solubles (CCMS)] on the retentions of fat, nitrogen and
several minerals; on the status of the pH of the...
Four studies were conducted on late-summer diet quality and quantity of cattle (Bos taurus), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus), and elk (Cervus elaphus) in response to prior grazing by cattle and elk on mixed-conifer rangelands and on related research techniques. In our first study we assessed a photographic technique to...
