Addition of Sodium Bicarbonate to Calf Starter Rations Varying in Protein Percent

Utilization and Addition Sugars to Ruminants Rations

Responses to sugars in dry or liquid formvary from study to study. When fed in proper amounts, sugars should not depress ruminalpH, and there is some evidence that they actuallyhelp toprevent a drop in pH after consuming largemeals of concentrate by maintaining a highernumberoflactate-fermenting bacteria. Adding sugars doesprioritize the need for rumen degraded protein (RDP).we all know, sugars...

Sodium Bicarbonate Prevents Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Addition to Theophylline

In this study, we investigated whether hydration with sodium bicarbonate is superior to hydration with saline in addition to theophylline (both groups) in the prophylaxis of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). It was a prospective, randomized, double-blinded study in a university hospital on 2 general intensive care units (63% of investigations) and normal wards.After approval of the local ethi...

Addition of Sugars to Dairy Rations

Responses to sugars in dry or liquid form vary from study to study. To explain some of this variation and prioritize when sugars are more likely to have a benefit in diets for high producing dairy cattle, microbial function that influences susceptibility to low ruminal pH or a limitation in growth factors needed for efficient ruminal fiber degradation is discussed in this paper. When fed in pro...
