Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of amount and degree of saturation of dietary fat on yield and quality of milk.
G.K. Macleod,A.S. Wood +1 more
TL;DR: Four rumen-fistulated Holstein cows were used in a Latin square design experiment over 20 weeks to compare effects of a standard diet, basal low-fat, basal + hydrogenated tallow, and basal + soybean oil diets on voluntary feed intake, rumen fermentation, and on yield and composition of milk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of dietary fat on rumen fatty acids, plasma lipid and milk fat composition in the cow
G.K. Macleod,A.S. Wood,Y.T. Yao +2 more
TL;DR: Reduced polyunsaturated fatty acids in rumen fluid and very low levels in milk fat provided evidence of hydrogenation in the rumen of cows fed oil-rich diets, which resulted in higher triglycerides, cholesterol, and phospholipids than the saturated fat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Imposing a Weekly Fast on Calves Receiving a Milk Replacer Diet Once and Twice Daily: Protein and Energy Utilization
TL;DR: There were no significant effects of treatments on rate of gain, digestible protein, and digestible energy used per kilogram gain, and the carcass parameters measured were not significantly affected by the feeding regime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imposing a weekly fast on calves receiving a milk replacer diet once and twice per day: blood glucose and plasma lipid patterns.
TL;DR: Changes in concentration of blood glucose, major plasma lipid fractions and their composition, of calves fed once or twice per day with or without a weekly fast from birth to 12 weeks of age were studied.
