(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)The effects of anabolic implants on the regulation of tissue growth were determined in cattle fed diets varying in forage and grain content. Yearling crossbred steers (n = 117) were fed one of three diets and either not ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Normal weight (NW) and overweight (OW) pregnant women were compared longitudinally regarding weight gain, pregnancy outcome variables, body composition, energy intake, and activity patterns. Subjects were measured during ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)Thirty two feedstuffs and lysozyme were hydrolyzed using either Ba(OH)2, NaOH or LiOH and analyzed by ion-exchange chromotography to determine which gave the most accurate and repeatable results. The tryptophan recovery ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Various studies for the development of a purified diet for penaeid shrimp were investigated. No difference in food-seeking behavior and diet consumption was observed in shrimp fed diets with attractant mixtures of 6% and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The solubility, oxidation, reduction, adsorption, and reactivity of iron are known to influence its bioavailability. The purpose of this study is to investigate the above factors in digestive mixtures using spectrophotometry ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)High serum cholesterol is a significant risk factor for coronary heart disease. Dietary fibers may lower serum cholesterol levels thus reducing the risk for heart disease. Some dietary fibers are known to increase cell ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)A study was conducted to determine the effects of increasing dietary pre-lay calcium levels from 1.00 to 2.00 or 3.00% between 15, 17 or 19 weeks of age. A total of 840 Single Comb White Leghorn pullets were randomly ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)It has been hypothesized that boron (B) is an essential element for animals, especially in bone metabolism. Two studies were conducted to evaluate this. The first experiment assessed boron's physiological dose effect. At ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)A total of 46 pregnant, 2 yr old, crossbred heifers were used in a study to determine the impact of nutrient restriction during gestation on changes in live weight, empty body (EB) weight, EB protein and EB fat. Large ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1991)Experiments were conducted using feedlot steers in a randomized block design to determine the effect of Zn and Cu complexes on feed intake and rectal temperature of cattle stressed with Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)A factorial experiment with four levels of crude protein [CP; 133 (HP), 100 (MP), 67% (LP) of NRC requirements and a control group which received no supplemental feed], three times of supplement initiation [TIME; mid- (P1) ...

(Texas A&M University, 1940)
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)The dynamics of fiber digestion related to the size of masticated and ruminated digesta particles were studied in two in vitro digestion experiments. Masticated samples of coastal bermuda hay were fractionated into several ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The results of three different experiments involving different aspects of digesta flow in ruminants are presented in five chapters. In experiment one, increasing level of either rice hulls or ground hay from 0 to 30% in a ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Two experiments were performed in order to determine the methionine and choline requirements for maximum protein synthesis by primary cultures of chick hepatocytes. In experiment 1, a 4 x 8 factorial design was employed ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Studies were conducted to determine the effects of ionophores, diet, level of intake and dietary restriction on vital organ mass and hepatic fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (F26P2) levels in growing non-ruminants and ionophores ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)Copper balance was examined in Miniature Horses fed diets containing 12 ppm copper and 73, 170, 400 or 580 ppm zinc in a 4X4 Latin square experiment. Horses were placed in wood metabolism stalls during the last four d of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Two experiments were conducted to observe the association of dietary aluminum (Al) with tissue Al accumulation. Other objectives included: to determine if alginic acid (AA) and pectin (P) in the diet could inhibit Al ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)The addition of menhaden oil (MO) to laying hen rations results in a significant increase in yolk omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid content. Due to proposed cardiovascular benefits associated with n-3 fatty acids, Americans have ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the potential of nonconventional diets with high protein to calorie ratios to limit abdominal fat in broilers. In experiment 1, 1,100 male and 900 female chicks were randomly ...
