A total of 45 preruminant goats were fed either goat milk or a milk substitute. The postnatal development of bile secretion and biliary lipids composition of suckling goats and the influence upon these parameters of maternal milk substitution were studied during the first month of life. Samples of hepatic and gallbladder bile were obtained from kids of 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 day-old. Bile flow rat...

In intensively milk-fed calves post-prandial glucose (G) and insulin (I) concentrations, but not preprandial G concentrations, increased or failed to decrease during the growth period, compared with data from calves that were progressively weaned. This study was, therefore, designed to investigate G and I metabolism in veal calves. Euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic and hyperglycemic clamps in the unf...

A total of 45 preruminant goats were fed either goat milk or a milk substitute to compare the evolution of taurine and glycine conjugated bile acids and the evolution of the intestinal flora during the first month of life. Samples of hepatic bile were obtained from kids of 1, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days old and conjugated bile acids were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. Bacterial ...

In this study, we aimed to develop chitosan-based oleogels via crosslinking with vanillin using an emulsion-templated approach allow the physical trapping of oil in chitosan matrix. The role Tween®60 modulate gelled network strength and use as a shortening substitute cookies was also investigated. Four were structured 0.75% by emulsion templates exclusively when used (1.0% or 3.0%), resulting a...

Data from calf studies conducted over the past 20 yr has shown that preweaning nutrient intake, from milk or milk replacer, can have profound effects on development of the calf that enhance first lactation and lifetime productivity. Many of the studies show positive but not significant effects of preweaning nutrition on long-term productivity, primarily due to a lack of power, usually due to in...
