three multiparoys lactating sannen dairy goats in midlactation with mean milk production and dim pf 1.5 ±0.22 kg and 167±4 days were used to determine effects of the abomasal infusion wheat starch, wheat starch or cottonseed oil with casein on performance of sannen dairy goats. goats were fed ad libitum with basal diet include, 40% hay alfalfa and 60% concentrate. treatments were abomasal infus...

Background: Milk is considered as one of the highly nutritious food for human. This study was undertaken to evaluate the physicochemical as well as the microbial quality of pasteurized milk of different brands available in Chittagong, Bangladesh. Methods: Five types of branded pasteurized liquid milk were collected from retail markets of Chittagong, Bangladesh. Physicochemical analyses were ca...

The effect of supplementing the diet of grazing dairy cows with fish oil (FO) and linseed oil (LSO) on milk conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was investigated. Sixteen Holstein cows (170±19 DIM) were assigned into two groups and fed a grain supplement (8.0 kg/d; DM basis) containing 800 g of saturated animal fat (CONT) or 200 g FO and 600 g LSO (FOLSO). All cows grazed together on Sudan grass past...

This study aimed to investigate whether diet and different goat production systems affect the quality of milk, white-brined cheese whey. It also determine suitability goat's milk for cheese. The physicochemical composition hygienic raw were studied, as well fatty acid profile nutritional indices Traditional cheeses produced from bulk two farms in three samples. results confirmed that husbandry ...

The objective of this study was to analyze the correlation between Holstein body conformation traits and milk production traits in the Shanghai region. In total, 871 Holstein cows were randomly chosen from 28 dairy farms in Shanghai at second stage of lactation as the object of our study. Five milk production traits, including 305-d milk yield, butter fat percentage, milk protein percentage, pe...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of diets containing roasted soybean (R), extruded soybean (E) or their combination (RE) on dairy cow performance and milk fatty acid (FA) profile. Nine multiparous lactating Holstein cows (680 ± 25 kg BW; 90 ± 10 DIM; means ± SD) were randomly assigned to a triple 3 × 3 Latin square design. Dry matter intake (DMI), apparent nutrient dige...

The current cattle selection program for dairy cattle in the Walloon region of Belgium does not consider the relative content of the different fatty acids (FA) in milk. However, interest by the local dairy industry in differentiated milk products is increasing. Therefore, farmers may be interested in selecting their animals based on the fat composition. The aim of this study was to evaluate the...

The imprinted insulin-like growth factor 2 gene (IGF2) encodes a fetal mitogenic hormone protein (IGF-II) and has previously been shown to be associated with performance in dairy cattle. In this study we assessed genotype-phenotype associations between four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located within the bovine IGF2 locus on chromosome 29 and a range of performance traits related to m...
