Anti-inflammatory salicylate treatment alters the metabolic adaptations to lactation in dairy cattle

Farney, Jaymelynn K.; Mamedova, Laman K.; Coetzee, Johann F.; KuKanich, Butch; Sordillo, Lorraine M.; Stoakes, Sara K.; Minton, J. Ernest; Hollis, Larry C.; Bradford, Barry J. (2013-07-15)

Adapting to the lactating state requires metabolic adjustments in multiple tissues, especially in the dairy cow, which must meet glucose demands that can exceed 5 kg/day in the face of negligible gastrointestinal glucose ...
Evaluating the removal of pigs from a group and subsequent floor space allowance on the growth performance of heavy-weight finishing pigs

Flohr, Joshua R.; Tokach, Michael D.; DeRouchey, Joel M.; Woodworth, Jason C.; Goodband, Robert D.; Dritz, Steven S.

A total of 1,092 finishing pigs (initially 36.3 kg) were used in a 117-d study to evaluate the impact of initial floor space allowance and removal strategy on the growth of pigs up to 140 kg BW. There were 4 experimental ...
Evaluating the impact of maternal vitamin D supplementation: I. Sow performance, serum vitamin metabolites, and neonatal muscle characteristics

Flohr, Joshua R.; Woodworth, Jason C.; Bergstrom, J. R.; Tokach, Michael D.; Dritz, Steven S.; Goodband, Robert D.; DeRouchey, Joel M.

In Exp. 1, 56 gestating sows (PIC 1050; 35 d postinsemination) were used in a 30-d trial to determine serum 25(OH)D-3 response to increasing concentrations of dietary vitamin D3. Sows were randomly allotted to 1 of 7 dietary ...
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone increased pregnancy risk in suckled beef cows not detected in estrus and subjected to a split-time artificial insemination program

Hill, Scott L.; Grieger, David M.; Olson, K. C.; Jaeger, John R.; Dahlen, C. R.; Crosswhite, M. R.; Pereira, N. N.; Underdahl, S. R.; Neville, B. W.; Ahola, J.; Fischer, M. C.; Seidel, G. E.; Stevenson, Jeffrey S.

We hypothesized that GnRH would increase pregnancy risk (PR) in a split-time AI program for cows in which estrus was not detected. A total of 1,236 suckled beef cows at 12 locations in 3 states (Colorado, Kansas, and North ...
Effects of anabolic implants and ractopamine-HCl on muscle fiber morphometrics, collagen solubility, and tenderness of beef longissimus lumborum steaks

Ebarb, Sara M.; Phelps, Kelsey J.; Drouillard, James S.; Maddock-Carlin, K. R.; Vaughn, M. A.; Burnett, D. D.; Noel, Jere A.; Van Bibber-Krueger, Cadra L.; Paulk, C. B.; Grieger, David M.; Gonzalez, John M.

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of growth-promoting technologies (GP) and postmortem aging on longissimus lumborum muscle fiber cross-sectional area (CSA), collagen solubility, and their relationship ...
