Interactions on feed consumption (P=.07) and feed efficiency (P=.11) suggested that the ionophore response was diminished in the presence of supplemental fat. Steers fed monensin plus tylosin had a lower (P=.005) incidence of liver abscesses whether fat was fed or not, indicating that supplemental fat had no effect on tylosin activity.BeefMonensinTylosinFatLiver abscessCattle performanceInfluence of supplemental fat and monensin plus tylosin on performance and carcass traits of finishing steersConference paper
