  • MGA and growth promotants administered to beef feedlot heifers have no effect on subsequent oocyte quality or in vitro embryo production
    Miller, N.; Grieger, D.; Fike, K. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2012)
    Beef feedlot heifers have the potential to serve as viable donors of oocytes post-slaughter for in vitro embryo production. Oocyte quality is a critical factor affecting the success of in vitro embryo production and can ...
  • Microbial evaluation of steam pasteurization and comparison of excision versus sponge sampling recovery
    Retzlaff, D.L.; Phebus, R.K.; Rueger, S.A.; Marsden, J.L.; Kastner, C.L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    The use of steam pasteurization (SPS400™; Frigoscandia, Bellevue, WA) as a viable commercial-scale intervention method to treat pre-rigor beef carcasses uniformly hasbeen evaluated for temperatures from 180E to 201 ̊F. ...
  • Microbial flora of commercially produced vacuum packaged, cooked beef roast
    Danler, R.J.; Boyle, E.A.E.; Thippareddi, H.; Phebus, R.K.; Fung, D.Y.C.; Kastner, C.L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2002)
    Commercially produced vacuum packaged, fully cooked, microwaveable beef roasts from four producers were purchased from local retail markets. Salt concentration, pH, water activity (aw), and percent moisture, fat and ...
  • Microbial shelf life of chub-packaged ground beef from four large U.S. processing plants
    Peters, P.E.; Gamage, S.D.; Phebus, R.K.; Luchansky, J.B. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    Ten pound chubs of coarsely ground beef of two different lean:fat specifications (73:27 and 81:19) were stored at three temperatures (34, 38 or 45 ̊F) to monitor the effects of storage temperature on microbial condition ...
  • Microbial use of recycled urea is dependent on the level and frequency of degradable intake protein supplementation
    Wickersham, T.A.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Cochran, R.C.; Wickersham, E.E.; Moore, E.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2007)
    Protein supplementation increases utilization (intake and digestion) of low-quality forage and ultimately animal performance. Despite its effectiveness, protein supplementation is often expensive. One strategy to reduce ...
