Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNose Color of Charolais × British Crossbred Beef Steers Alters Body Weight at a Common Degree of Fatness and Marbling Score in Steers Reared Under Similar Management from Birth through FinishingZachary K. SmithThis study evaluated differences in nose color (Black or Pink) on carcass traits and mature body weight in Charolais × British crossbred beef steers. Steers (n = 180; 280±18.2 kg) were weaned and fed for 244 days until harvest. The hypothesis was that steers with black noses had Black Angus dams and that steers with pink noses had Red Angus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 7 Oct 2020 · 6,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProphylactic use of Antibiotics is Essential for Fattening Pig Production?Túlio Otávio de Araújo Lima Neto, Letícia Mendonça Rodrigues, Vitor de Oliveira Araújo et al.The demand for animal protein is a fact of relevance for the production systems, especially pork, the most consumed animal protein source in the world. In this sense to ensure the efficient production during the pigs raising the use of Prophylactic Antibiotics (PA) is a common practice, but there is a great potential for the occurrence of resistance to antibiotics. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2018 · 7,593 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Meal Feeding and Skip-A-Day Feeding With or Without Probiotics for Broiler Chickens Grown at High-Altitude to Prevent Ascites MortalityAli Saffar, Fariborz KhajaliProblem statement: Ascites is a common rapid-growth-related problem in broiler chickens grown at high altitude where the partial pressure of oxygen is low and is marginally adequate to support the growth performance and ascites-related variables. A mismatch between the growth of oxygen supplying organs and the oxygen demanding organs causes ascites in broiler chickens. In the present study, broilers were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,696 accessesView PDFCite
