Calcified seaweed (CS) based products have been proposed as an alternative ruminal pH buffer to sodium bicarbonate. It has reported that magnesium can aid in control too, especially those natural marine forms. We assessed the rumen capacity and milk production composition of two CS: Acid Buf (AB) compared with M12 (a enriched CS) on grazing dairy cows a replicated Latin Square design involving ...

Background Data is suggesting that non-balanced conventional crystalloids (0.9% saline) are not only associated with the occurrence of hyperchloremic, metabolic acidosis but increased incidence of acute kidney injury and even morbidity and mortality. Experimental data suggested infusion of hyperchloremic crystalloids to be associated with hypotension in experimental sepsis. We aimed to investig...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a low-moisture buffer block on ruminal pH and milk production in cows induced with subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA). Sixteen ruminally cannulated cows were randomly assigned to treatment (access to buffer blocks) or control (no buffer blocks). Ruminal pH was recorded each minute; dry matter intake (DMI), milk yield, and milk composition ...

discussion this is the first iranian 3-oxothiolase deficiency case report as searched in the literature. because of the high rate of consanguineous marriages in iran, physicians should consider the 3-oxothiolase deficiency in the differential diagnosis of any patient with intractable vomiting and severe metabolic acidosis. case presentation this is a case report of 3-oxothiolase deficiency in a...

Metabolic acidosis secondary to lactic acidosis may occur in acute, severe asthma and its presence suggests that respiratory muscle fatigue and tissue hypoxia play a major part in the pathogenesis. Non-anion gap metabolic acidosis (NAG acidosis) has also been reported in acute asthma but its impact on the clinical outcome has not been evaluated. The objective of this study was to evaluate the p...
