Effects of rumen-protected choline supplementation on milk production and choline supply of periparturient dairy cows.
The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of rumen-protected choline (RPC) supplementation on body condition, milk production and milk choline content during the periparturient period. Thirty-two Holstein cows were allocated into two groups (RPC group - with RPC supplementation, and control group - without RPC supplementation) 28 days before the expected calving. Cows were...
متن کاملFeeding Rumen-Protected Choline to Transition Dairy Cows
Choline [(CH3)3N+CH2CH2OH], also known as trimethyl ethanolamine, is an essential component of mammalian diets as it is required for normal function of cells. It was discovered by Andreas Strecker in 1862, but it remained unrecognized as an essential nutrient for humans until 1998, when dietary reference intakes were established. Choline was initially determined to be essential in the preventio...
متن کاملEffect of rumen-protected choline on performance, blood metabolites, and hepatic triacylglycerols of periparturient dairy cattle.
The effects of a dietary supplement of rumen-protected choline on feed intake, milk yield, milk composition, blood metabolites, and hepatic triacylglycerol were evaluated in periparturient dairy cows. Thirty-eight multiparous cows were blocked into 19 pairs and then randomly allocated to either one of 2 treatments. The treatments were supplementation either with or without (control) rumen-prote...
متن کاملThe role of rumen-protected choline in hepatic function and performance of transition dairy cows.
High-producing dairy cows enter a period of negative energy balance during the first weeks of lactation. Energy intake is usually sufficient to cover the increase in energy requirements for fetal growth during the period before calving, but meeting the demand for energy is often difficult during the early stages of lactation. A catabolic state predominates during the transition period, leading ...
متن کاملUpdate on Rumen-protected Choline in Dairy Cow Nutrition
Choline is a quasi-vitamin that has a variety of functions in mammalian metabolism. Its major functions are as the predominant phospholipid contained in the membranes of all cells in the body (as phosphatidylcholine), a component of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and as a direct precursor to betaine in methyl metabolism. It is beyond the scope of this paper to review these functions in dep...
