Influence of ionophore addition to a high-concentrate diet on net nutrient absorption in steers

Harmon, D.L.; Gross, K.L.; Avery, T.B.
Feeding the ionophores monensin and lasalocid In a high-concentrate diet

resulted in gut tissues utilizing less glucose. Monensin caused less urea to be

recycled. The new, experimental ionophore (lCI 139603) resulted in an increased

net absorption of acetate. Thus, ionophores may differ in how they execute their

effects on feed efficiency.
