Advances in breeding and management resulted in a considerable increase of production traits in Austrian dairy cattle. Besides, low input systems were also established. Possible genotype by environment interactions (G x E) and genetic antagonisms dependent on production level might indicate the need for separate breeding programmes for dairy farms diff ering in management intensity. Th us, G x ...

Milk-derived peptides with ACE-inhibiting properties may have antihypertensive effects in humans. We conducted a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial to examine the blood pressure lowering potential of 2 ACE-inhibiting lactotripeptides, ie, Isoleucine-Proline-Proline and Valine-Proline-Proline. We included 135 Dutch subjects with elevated systolic blood pressure who were otherwise h...

in this paper, by using the survival models, survival functions for the time from birth to the event of using formula (i.e. the time that baby in fed by breast milk) in urban and rural areas of takestan (iran, winter 1998) are reported. later the relation between the mentioned time and some factors are also discussed. the kaplan-meire method and cox regression are used in this paper as well. 48...

mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of molds and have adverse effects on humans, animals, and crops. those can cause illnesses and economic losses. aflatoxin m1 (afm1) is one of the mycotoxins produced from the hydroxylated metabolite of aflatoxin b1 (afb1). it can be found in milk or milk products obtained from livestock that have ingested contaminated feed. in this paper, recent studies were...

Common practice methods of tank design for transportation liquefied natural gas don’t take into account the specifics carriers operation under condition partial filling cryogenic tanks. A new method designing type-C is proposed. Method based on solving problem increasing volume transported by small-scale inland carriers. The usage a number limiting parameters: minimal allowable ventless time, v...

an ordinary flour-mill behind which the snake lay hidden from view. No effort was made by the parents to kill the animal, which was allowed to run put in their presence and enter into the rubbish heaps about the house; such deadly snakes being held sacred, and worshipped by the ignorant and superstitious Hindus, and not unfrequently cherished with milk and bread put in the holes in which they a...

Analysis of Kemps and Land O’Lakes brand 2% milk was performed to detect aluminum, magnesium and calcium levels. ICP-AES was utilized because of its quick run time and ability to detect all three elements simultaneously. Mg and Ca levels were found to be well below expected values and Al was in too small a concentration to detect using this method. A possibility for the low results was that the...

The disease is characterised by clinical signs of the upper respiratory tract, such as a (muco)purulent nasal discharge, hyperaemia of the muzzle (red nose disease) and by conjunctivitis. Signs of general illness are fever, depression, inappetence, abortions and reduced milk yield. The virus can also infect the genital tract and cause pustular vulvovaginitis and balanoposthitis. Postmortem exam...
