Abstract:

The live export of cattle is an important industry for Australia. Concerns have arisen about animal welfare and in particular heat stress which may cause production losses and death. Cattle shipped live to the Middle East from a southern Australian winter can face continuous and prolonged periods of high heat and humidity as they cross the equator and arrive into a northern hemisphere summer, leading to heat stress and excessive heat load. Some live animal exporters treat heat stressed cattle with electrolyte supplements, but no scientific data exists as to whether this is beneficial to cattle

Experiments were conducted to determine effects of feeding whole cottonseed (WCS), expander solvent cottonseed meal (CSM), or a combination of these, as well as other factors on blood gossypol concentrations in cattle.

Plasma gossypol (PG) in cows receiving 1800 ppm TG plateaued at 3.28 μg/ml after 28 d. However, by 28 d, erythrocyte fragility increased for cows receiving WCS diets. Plasma chemistry, vitamin A, body temperatures, and respiration rates were within normal ranges. Ser

Plasma ANGPTL4 has the ability to inhibit lipoprotein lipase (LPL) function by preventing it from catalyzing hydrolysis of lipoprotein triglyceride, which contributes to ANGPTL4’s ability to decrease fat storage. Furthermore, research in mice suggests that gut microbes suppress gastrointestinal ANGPTL4 production, and that decreased plasma ANGPTL4 concentrations pr

Abstract:

This research was aimed at evaluating in vitro and in vivo effects of lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus Stapf.) oil, citronella (Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt) oil and eucalyptus (Corymbia citriodora) oil on cattle ticks (Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus), each of which corresponds to an essential oil experiment. Negative control group end eight concentrations of lemongrass oil, citronella oil and eucalyptus oil (0.5; 1; 2; 5; 10; 20; 50; 100%), were used on in vitro trials with engorged female ticks. The efficacy control ticks was 0; 20; 39; 99.5; 100; 100; 100; 100 and 100%, for lemongrass

Abstract:

Maternally-derived transcripts and proteins support early bovine and ovine embryo development until the 8- to 16-cell stage, at which time embryonic transcripts become essential for continued development. One purported mechanism for the switch from maternal to zygotic control of development (maternal to zygotic genome activation; MZGA) is the appearance of transcription factors that activate specific genes in the embryonic genome. Members of the E26 transformation specific (Ets) family are unique transcription factors involved in development, differentiation, and protease regulation. This stu

Abstract:

Although the occurrence of ketosis is a postpartum phenomenon, recent studies have focused on the prepartum period as key in the development of the disorder. Indicators of prepartum energy status, such as depressed dry matter intake (DMI) and elevated plasma non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) concentrations have been associated with the occurrence of ketosis. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) in the periparturient and ketotic cow. The enzyme PEPCK catalyzes the rate limiting step in gluconeogenesis in hepatocytes. Whereas, in adi
