The nutritional value of biodiesel co-products were studied for swine. In Exp. 1, expeller-pressed canola meal was nutritionally characterized and validated for grower-finisher pigs. Expeller-pressed canola meal provided adequate energy and AA; ADG was reduced 3 g/d per 1% expeller-pressed canola...

Nutrition of the beef cow during pregnancy influences fetal development and potential changes in phenotype. On average 9-10% of beef cows are below the optimal condition score of 2.5/5 at both pre-breeding and pregnancy tests, indicating potential nutritional stress during gestation (Waldner and...

Introduction: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as obesity, type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are increasing at an alarming rate globally. A common feature in these conditions is increased adiposity leading to insulin resistance (IR). Dyslipidemia is a major contributing...

In the last two decades, periodontitis has become recognized as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), a term that encompasses many circulatory disorders, often underpinned by atherosclerosis. One of the major questions regarding this association has been whether elimination of...

Novakovic, Predrag, Harding, John C. S., Al-Dissi, Ahmad, Ladinig, Andrea, Detmer, Susan E.
The pathogenesis of fetal death caused by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndromevirus (PRRSV) remains unclear. The objective of this study was to improve our understand-ing of the pathogenesis by assessing potential relationships between specific histopatho-logical lesions and PRRSV RNA...

One hundred and thirty-four pregnant beef cows (liveweight = 544.3 kg ± 73 3 kg SD; condition score = 3.5 ± 0.3 SD), were randomly assigned in January to five management treatments (combinations of feed restriction and weaning time) to study the effects on calving and rebreeding performance....

The role of starch and fiber composition on nutrient flow, site and extent of nutrient digestion, and microbial profiles in pigs
DownloadSpring 2016
Starch is the main energy substrate for monogastrics, including swine. Physico- chemical properties of starch and the cereal grain matrix can change the kinetics of digestion. Objectives of this thesis were to enhance the understanding of how the physico-chemical properties of purified starch and...

Early mammalian development cannot progress without targeted temporal and spatial expression of genes. Changing the accessibility of DNA to transcriptional machinery is one critical way gene expression is controlled. This process, known as chromatin remodeling, is vital for formation of the...
