Thirty Angus steers averaging 357 kg were used to: 1) determine the effect of feeding lasalocid (33 mg/kg diet) on mineral metabolism and 2) determine the effects of varying dietary sodium (Na) and potassium (K) on finishing steers fed lasalocid. Treatments consisted of: 1) control (.25% Na, .5% K); 2) lasalocid (.05% Na, .5% K); 3) lasalocid (.25% Na, .5% K); 4) lasalocid (.05% Na, 1.4% K) and...

Crossbred wether lambs were used to assess the effect of altered forage:concentrate ratio and metabolizable energy intake on metabolism of substrates by ruminal epithelium using an isolated cell system. Lambs (n = 28; 20.1 +/- 3 kg BW) were assigned randomly to a factorial arrangement of dietary treatments consisting of either 75% forage or 75% concentrate fed once daily at either .099 or .181 ...

a fibroadenoma was diagnosed in the mammary gland of a lamb by immunohistochemical method andmeasurement of oestradiol hormone. the tumor was characterized by an encapsulated firm mass with acreamy-white cut surface. histologically, it consisted of variably-sized sinus ducts, covered by a single ormultiple layers of proliferated epithelial cells, and embedded in a loose connective tissue. immun...

Epithelial cells are important in the regeneration of oral mucosal tissue. The cell source is commonly derived from tissue biopsy, which obtained through surgery. Stem human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) were demonstrated to differentiate into multiple types. As it can be readily available teeth, induced and become a potential epithelial for study. This study aims examine mixture growth fac...

Lingual thyroid (LT) is a rare developmental thyroid anomaly usually affecting. Although the exact pathogenesis of this ectopic, accessory thyroid tissue is not known, it generally originates from epithelial tissue of non-obliterated thyroglossal ductus. In this report, a case of lingual thyroid in a 45- year old male patient with difficulty in breathing and swallowing complaints for five years...

Story in Brief The phosphorus concentration in ruminal fluid was determined for steers limit-fed rations with phosphorus concentrations ranging from .06 to .17 percent. Ruminal phosphorus concentration was increased with phosphorus intake at dietary concentrations below .12 percent for steers. This relationship was employed to estimate the ruminal availability of phosphorus from four phosphorus...
