Characterization of Lactational Performance in Transgenic Swine Overexpressing Alpha-Lactalbumin
… of the transgene was associated with increased milk production and increased piglet growth by transgenic reared piglets. Increased lactose synthesis in the may increase the contribution of lactose to the osmotic balance of colostrum, therefore increasing the water content and overall volume. …

Intake and Digestibility of Brown-Midrib Corn Silage by Lactating Dairy Cows
… units higher for the bm<sub>3 </sub>ration. Milk yield was not affected by ration, but milk fat percentage was higher for cows fed the bm3 ration. Total ruminal volatile fatty acids, pH, and ammoniacal nitrogen levels were similar. In trial 2, five cows per group were individually fed a …

The use of animal activity data and milk components as indicators of clinical mastitis
… Daily monitoring of animal activity and milk components can be used to detect mastitis prior to clinical onset. Data from 268 cases with clinical mastitis and respective controls (n=268) from Virginia Tech and the University of Florida dairy herds were examined. Variables collected …

Carnitine for lactating dairy cows
… or abomasum. Concentrations of carnitine in milk, plasma, liver, and urine increased similarly for both sites of carnitine administration. Milk yield and composition were not affected, except for solids-not-fat content and yield which increased when carnitine was administered at either site. …

Effects of close-up dietary energy strategy and prepartal dietary monensin on production and metabolism in Holstein cows
… Neither of the feeding strategies affected milk yield, milk component yields, percentage of milk protein, or fat-corrected milk except that percentage of milk fat was higher for CU than for CE (P = 0.03). The inclusion of M increased lactose content (P < 0.01) and yields of lactose (P = …

Utilizing near-infrared technology to assess changes in corn silage dry matter and the effects of feeding a starling resistant supplement to dairy cattle
… were housed individually in a tie-stall barn, milked 3x daily, and fed 2x daily. Cows were fed two nutritionally similar diets: 1. TMR with grain in mash form and 2. TMR with grain supplement in a pellet with a 0.953-cm diameter. This study was designed as a single reversal experiment with two …
