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...

Environmental and Community Exposures and Children’s Infectious Diseases in Bangladesh

Creator:: Ahmed, Sharia M.
Abstract:: Under-5 mortality has decreased globally, but millions of children still die every year. In Bangladesh, respiratory infection and diarrheal disease remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality for children under-5, despite incredible progress in the past three decades. Immune system development begins in utero and continues into adulthood. Toxic environmental...

Antioxidant Effects of Blackberry Pomace on the Health of Transition Dairy Cows

Creator:: Estenson, Kaelyn A.
Abstract:: Blackberry pomace (BBP), a byproduct from juice processing, is often disposed of in landfills. We propose BBP as an antioxidant-rich feed supplement for transition dairy cows. To explore the effects of BBP on antioxidant status, 24 multiparous dairy cows (5 Holstein and 19 Jersey) were assigned randomly to one of...

Relative Health Effects of Intake of High-Fat Diets Enriched with Raspberry Fiber and Raspberry Polyphenol in C57B/J6 Mice

Creator:: Sturm, Marlena L.
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Consumption of raspberry products have been observed to produce healthful effects and reduce weight gain and positively shift metabolism in mice fed obesigenic diets. In the past, our lab has successfully shown a reduction in weight gain for mice consuming RPC+HF vs. mice fed HF alone. Currently, there is...
