Feeding 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 methionine, lysine or both on milk production and plasma amino acids of high-yielding dairy cows
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of supplemental lysine (Lys), methionine (Met) or both amino acids added in the form of rumen-protected (RP) tablets with copolymer coating to a diet of dairy cows on yield and composition of milk and concentration of plasma amino acids (AA). The experiment was carried out on four high-yielding lactating Holstein cows with average milk pro...
متن کاملResponses of Dairy Cows to Supplemental Highly Digestible Rumen Undegradable Protein and Rumen-protected Forms of Methionine*
Metabolizable protein (MP) supply and amino acid balance in the intestine were manipulated through selection of highly digestible rumen-undegradable protein (RUP) sources and protected methionine (Met) supplementation. Four ruminallycannulated, multiparous Holstein cows averaging 193±13 days in milk were used in a 4×4 Latin square design to assess N utilization and milk production responses to ...
متن کاملEvaluation of corn distillers grains and ruminally protected lysine and methionine for lactating dairy cows.
Twelve multiparous Holstein cows averaging 57 d (36 to 77 d) postpartum at the start of the experiment were utilized in a replicated 4 x 4 Latin square design. Dietary protein supplements were 1) soybean meal, 2) soybean meal plus ruminally protected Lys and Met, 3) corn distillers grains, and 4) corn distillers grains plus ruminally protected Lys and Met. Dry matter intakes were lower for cows...
متن کاملUltrasonography of the rumen of dairy cows
BACKGROUND This study describes the ultrasonographic findings of the rumen in 45 healthy dairy cows. RESULTS The cows were scanned on both sides using a 5.0 MHz transducer. The dorsal visible margin of the rumen ran parallel to the lung from cranioventral to caudodorsal. It was furthest from the dorsal midline at the 9th intercostal space (48.3 ± 9.24 cm) and closest at the 12th intercostal s...
