Molybdenum metabolism and interrelationships with copper and phosphorus.
In 1938 it was discovered that naturally occurring molybdenum in certain pastures in the United Kingdom was responsible for a severe disease of cattle and sheep (1). The unhealthy pastures were characterized by a molybdenum content of 20 to 1.00 parts per million on the dry basis, as compared with less than 5 p.p.m. in the normal pasture. The experimental production of the disease by administra...
متن کاملDigestion and metabolism of dietary fat in farm animals.
Fat digestion and metabolism differ widely between animal species. In ruminants, dietary fats are hydrogenated in the rumen before intestinal absorption so that absorbed fatty acids (FA) are more saturated than dietary FA. In non-ruminants, intestinal FA digestibility depends on the level of saturation of dietary FA. Fat supplementation of the diet of cows decreases milk protein and has a varia...
متن کاملMolecular Markers for Fertility in Farm Animals
A genetic marker is a gene or DNA sequence with known localization on a chromosome. It can be de-scribed as a variation that can be measured or detected by a suitable method, and can be used subsequently to detect the presence of a specific genotype. Such variations occurring at chromosomal or DNA level can serve as genetic markers. The progress in development of molecular markers suggests thei...
متن کاملInduced Termination of Pregnancy in Domestic Farm Animals
Induced abortion may be desired during a normal or abnormal pregnancy. The methods of induced abortion differ between species mainly because of different sources for progesterone production during pregnancy between species and within a species according to different stages of gestation. In cows and buffaloes, pregnancy can be effectively terminated from 5 to 150 days by administration of luteol...
متن کاملTransgenesis in farm animals
The production of transgenic animals has many biotechnological applications; however, available techniques still remain inefficient. This review summarizes the contributions of our group to transgenesis in domestic animal. One of the most traditional transgenesis techniques in farm animals is somatic cell nuclear transfer using genetically modified somatic cells. Using this technique, we produc...
