[ 1 ] - Effects of Pre-Pubertal Plane of Nutrition on Skeletal Growth, Lamb Mortality, IGF-1 Concentrations, Quantity and Quality of Colostrum Production in Kurdish Female Lambs

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of pre-pubertal plane of nutrition on the skeletal growth, lamb mortality, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) concentrations, quantity and quality of colostrum produced in ewe lambs. A total of 40 clinically health Kurdish female lambs (30±8.6 d and weighing 10.2±3.4 kg) were randomly allocated to one of two experimental diets in pre-wea...

[ 2 ] - Effect of Pre-Pubertal Plan of Nutrition on Reproductive Performance, Hormone Concentrations and Milk Production in Kurdish Female Lambs

To determine the value of pre-pubertal plan of nutrition on reproductive performance, hormonal concentrations and milk production in ewe lambs, a total of 40 clinically health Kurdish female lambs (30±8.6 d and weighing 10.2±3.4 kg) were randomly allocated to one of two experimental diets in pre-weaning period: high quality diet (HQD) (HQD, 2.50 Mcal ME/kg dry matter (DM) and 148 g CP/kg DM) or...

[ 3 ] - Effects of Pre-Pubertal Nutrition Plan on Blood Metabolites and Some Physiological Responses in Kurdish Female Lambs at Weaning and Breeding

BACKGROUND: Pre-pubertal nutrition managements are considered essential for animal health, optimizing production and reproductive performance in livestock. OBJECTIVES: In this study, the effects of dietary low and high energy and protein provisions on body growth, blood metabolites and inherent safety index were investigated in pre-pubertal Kurdish female lambs. METHODS: We fed 40 healthy Kurdi...

[ 4 ] - اثر گلوتامین محافظت شده بر متابولیت‌های پلاسمایی و تغییرات وضعیت بدنی گاوهای تازه‌زا

این مطالعه به منظور بررسی اثر استفاده از گلوتامین محافظت شده روی مصرف خوراک، متابولیت‌های پلاسمایی، تغییرات نمره وضعیت بدنی و عملکرد تولید مثلی گاوهای تازه‌زا انجام شد. چهل رأس گاو هلشتاین چند شکم زا (با میانگین وزن پیش از زایش 58±796 کیلوگرم و میانگین نمره وضعیت بدنی 35/0±25/3) در روز زایش (صفر) به چهار گروه (ده رأسی) تقسیم شدند. تیمارها شامل: گروه شاهد با جیره پایه بصورت TMR دارای 49% علوفه و...
