Beta acid extracts of hops have a modest effect on ruminal metabolism and apparent total tract digestibility by steers fed high- concentrate diets

Uwituze, S.; Heidenreich, J.M.; Higgins, J.J.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Hops have been used for centuries to control bacterial contamination in beer production. Today, alpha acids are extracted from hops for use in flavoring beer, leaving residues that are rich in beta acids. Beta acid ...
Crude glycerin improves feed efficiency in finishing heifers

Van Cleef, E.H.C.B.; Uwituze, S.; Alvarado, C.A.; Miller, K.A.; Van Bibber-Krueger, C.L.; Aperce, C.C.; Higgins, J.J.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2013)

Crude glycerin is the principal byproduct of biodiesel production. The raw feedstocks, animal fats and vegetable oils, yield approximately 90 lb of biodiesel and 10 lb of crude glycerin for each 100 lb of input. When ...
Dietary sulfur concentration has no effect on In Vitro fermentative activity of ruminal mixed microorganisms

Uwituze, S.; Hollis, L.; Drouillard, J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

We previously reported that elevated concentrations of dietary sulfur (0.65% sulfur, dry basis) in finishing diets containing dried distillers grains with solubles decreased dry matter intake and average daily gains of ...
Evaluation of dried distiller’s grains and roughage source in steam-flaked corn-based finishing diets

Uwituze, S.; Parsons, G.L.; Shelor, M.K.; Depenbusch, B.E.; Karges, K.K.; Gibson, M.L.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)

Dried distiller’s grains with solubles (DDGS) are the main byproduct of dry milling, the process used most frequently for fuel ethanol production. DDGS consist of the spent grains following ethanol distillation and are ...
High sulfur content in distillers grains alters ruminal fermentation and diet digestibility in beef steers

Uwituze, S.; Parsons, G.L.; Karges, K.K.; Gibson, M.L.; Hollis, L.C.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Requirements for elemental sulfur in feedlot diets have been established to be approximately 0.15% with a maximum upper threshold of 0.40% of diet dry matter. Feeding ethanol fermentation by-products, such as distillers ...
High sulfur content in distillers grains with solubles may be deleterious to beef steer performance and carcass quality

Uwituze, S.; Parsons, G.L.; Schneider, C.J.; Karges, K.K.; Gibson, M.L.; Hollis, L.C.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Distillers grains with solubles are becoming an increasingly important staple of cattle diets because of rapid expansion of the fuel ethanol industry. Sulfuric acid often is used in ethanol production processes to clean ...
Higher ruminal pH increases in vitro digestion of diets containing dried distillers grains with solubles

Uwituze, S.; Heidenreich, J.M.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2009)

Advantages of steam flaking grain are less with respect to growth performance and diet digestion when a portion of distillers grains is substituted for grain. Ruminal pH typically is lower in cattle fed flaked-grain diets ...
Influence of Linpro and dietary copper on feedlot cattle performance, carcass characteristics, and fatty acid composition of beef

Alvarado, C.A.; Aperce, C.C.; Miller, K.A.; Van Bibber, C.L.; Uwituze, S.; Drouillard, J.S.; Higgins, J.J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2012)

Human diets often contain high levels of saturated fatty acids that can have deleterious health consequences such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. In contrast, omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for human ...
Prior adaptation improves crude glycerin utilization by cattle

van Cleef, E.H.C.B.; Uwituze, S.; Van Bibber-Krueger, C.L.; Miller, K.A.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2013)

Crude glycerin has increased in availability as a feedstock for cattle as a result of expansion of the biodiesel industry in the United States. This byproduct, when ingested by cattle, is fermented by ruminal bacteria ...
Substituting steam-flaked corn with distiller’s grains alters ruminal fermentation and diet digestibility

Uwituze, S.; Parsons, G.L.; Shelor, M.K.; Depenbusch, B.E.; Karges, K.K.; Gibson, M.L.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)

Rapid expansion of fuel ethanol production in the High Plains, where feedlots commonly use steam-flaked corn diets, has popularized substituting dried distiller’s grains with solubles (DDGS) for a portion of the ...
