Blood metabolites profile and Growth Hormone mRNA expression of Peranakan Ongole cattle fed with finishing ration containing Vinasse-molasses

<p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Objective: </strong>This study aimed to investigate effects of Molasses replacement with Vinasse-molasses in ration on the blood metabolite profiles and mRNA expression <em>Growth Hormone 1</em> (<em>GH1)</em> finishing Peranakan Ongole (PO) Cattle.</p><p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Methods: </strong>Ten male PO cattle averaged 209 ± 21 kg body weight were equally allocated receive either molasses or dietary treatments. The concentrate diet was contained 15% (control) Vinasse-molasses. This observed nutrient intake, percentage gain, <em>GH1</em> cattle.<strong></strong></p><p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Results: </strong>The result showed that replacing vinasse-molasses reduced (P<0.05) dry matter intake (DMI) intakes crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), fiber (CF), total digestible (TDN). Nevertheless, inclusion did not change (P>0.05) gain. increased urea nitrogen level, while it affect <em>GH1 </em>mRNA levels.</p><p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Conclusions:</strong> It can be concluded does profile, performance cattle. could applied as energy sources ingredient replace feed.<strong></strong></p>
