Research ArticleOpen accessIsoquinoline Alkaloids and the Ionophore Monensin Supplemented Alone or Combined on Ruminal Fermentation and Nutrient Digestibility in Steers Fed a High-Energy DietJesús D. Urías-Estrada, Beatriz I. Castro-Pérez, Alfredo Estrada-Angulo et al.The aim of this experiment was to investigate the Influence of Alkaloids (IQA) and sodium Monensin (MON) supplementation on characteristics of ruminal fermentation, microbial protein synthesis and site and extend of digestion. For this, 4 cannulated steers were used in a 4×4 Latin square design. Treatments consisted of a high-energy basal diet supplemented with: (1) No additive (Control), (2) 15 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 7 Oct 2021 · 6,580 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessThe Vitamin A and E Forms Influence Differently the Plasma Vitamin Concentrations in Newly Received CalvesLorenzo Buenabad, Alberto Barreras, Alejandro Plascencia, Richard Avery ZinnTen Holstein steer calves (105±3 kg) were used to evaluate bioavailability of two Vitamin A or E forms, “natural” (EA1) or “synthetic” (EA2), based on plasma vitamin concentrations during a 3-d period post injection(subcutaneous). Plasma retinyl palmitate and plasma Vitamin A concentration (retinol equivalent of all forms) was greater 24 and 48 h (P<0.01) post injection of retinyl palmitate vs … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 31 May 2021 · 6,798 accessesView PDF Cite
