Genetic Regulation of Feed Efficiency in Lactating Holstein Cows

New Synbiotic-Mineral Complex in Lactating Cows’ Diets to Improve Their Productivity and Milk Composition

The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a new experimental complex in diets of lactating cows. The scientific and economic experiments were conducted in conditions of a large industrial complex for milk production from cows of Holstein breed (Russia). Four groups of Holstein cows (third calving), 20 animals each, were formed to conduct an analog method research. The cows i...

Factors Affecting Milk Composition of Lactating Cows - FSA4014

Nutrition or dietary influences readily alter fat concentration and milk protein concentration. Fat concentration is the most sensitive to dietary changes and can vary over a range of nearly 3.0 percentage units. Dietary manipulation results in milk protein concentration changing approximately 0.60 percentage units. The concentrations of lactose and minerals, the other solids constituents of mi...

Factors affecting milk cortisol in mid lactating dairy cows

BACKGROUND Whether the measurement of cortisol in dairy cows can be used as a biomarker of adverse environmental or pathophysiological conditions is still under of scientific debate. In these situations, several systems mainly the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the autonomic nervous system, and the immune system are recruited to reestablish homeostasis. A first aim of the present study wa...

the effects of high non fibrous carbohydrates diet on milk production, inflammation and molecular mechanism of innate immunity in lactating dairy cows

پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسی اثر جیره حاوی کربوهیدراتهای غیرالیافی زیاد و بروز التهاب در گاوهای شیرده در دو آزمایش جداگانه انجام شد. در آزمایش اول 20 رأس گاو مبتلا به ورم پستان از دو گروه کم تولید و پرتولید (هر کدام 10 رأس) و 20 رأس گاو سالم از دو گروه کم تولید و پرتولید (هر کدام 10 رأس) انتخاب شدند. همه گاوها در دوره دوم و یا سوم شیردهی و در روزهای 80-120 پس از زایش بودند. میانگین تولید شیر در گروه...
