Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Early Weaning on Performance, Health Parameters, and Carcass Traits of Bonsmara Bull Calves Under Feedlot ConditionsKgotso Patrick Matli, Thobela Louis Tyasi, Pieter FourieA feedlot is an intensive farming system used for finishing livestock. This study analyzed the performance, health, and carcass traits of Early-Weaned Calves (EWC) and Traditionally-Weaned Calves (TWC). A total of 285 Bonsmara bull calves were grouped into two weaning strategies, with 136 EWC (255±27.30 kg) and 149 TWC (308±24.60 kg). Backgrounding was followed by a finishing phase, with a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 14 Aug 2026 · 1,233 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelenium Enriched Peanut Protein Alleviates Alcohol-Induced Liver Damage in Mice by Modulating the Composition of the Gut MicrobiotaLin Gao, Jiawei Yuan, Yuhuan Cheng et al.Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is one of leading external causes of mortality. Selenium-enriched Peanut Protein (SePP) is a type of Se compound present in Se-enriched plants. Our previous studies showed that SePP possesses potential therapeutic properties and could alleviate alcohol-induced AML-12 cytotoxicity. It spurred us to determine the underlying mechanisms and roles of SePP on gut microbiota. Here, ICR mice … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2021 · 6,230 accessesView PDFCite
