Complementation of the plasmin fragments of reduced-carbamoylmethylated (Cam) human somatotropin (hGH) with those of reduced-carbamoylmethylated human chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS) have been investigated. It was found that the recombinant obtained by noncovalent interaction of [Cys(Cam)53]hGH-(1-134) with [Cys(Cam)-165,182,189]hCS-(141-191) exhibits 50% growth-promoting activity and nearly ...

A new scientific study by Vicini et al. published in the July issue of the prestigious Journal of the American Dietetic Association (JADA) reports the results of the first in-depth survey study comparing retail milk for quality, nutritional value and levels of different milk hormones, including bovine somatotropin (bST). The study that we published found that there were “no meaningful differenc...

Application of the technologies of genetic engwering in the dairy industry will begin with!” 5 years, probably wth the use of bovine somatotropin as a la&bon sbmulant. There are several other likely developments which may manipulate the animal, the plant or the wnen micro-organism to increase or dwersity production or to decrease milking frequency. To take full advantage of increased potential ...

The production and profit impacts of recombinant Bovine Somatotropin (rbST) on select New York dairy farms were estimated using data over the years 1994 through 2004, by comparing matching farms which use and do not use rbST. The use of rbST increases milk production per cow and decreases the cost of production per hundredweight of milk. The cost penalty (cost reduction) is $0.39 per hundredwei...
