In experiment 1, 21 male Holstein calves (43.9 kg) were fed only milk replacer at 1.4% of their body weight as dry matter for 6 wk. Dietary treatments included a commercial milk replacer (22% protein, 15% fat) containing (dry basis) either 6.4% Ca propionate or 6.4% dextrose (control) and either 0 or 0.5 mg/kg of supplemental Cr as Cr propionate ...

The Effect of Chromium Propionate on Growth Performance and Carcass Traits in Broilers
SUMMARY Chromium has been considered by many nutritionists as an essential nutrient for animals and humans. Research on the use of Cr from organic sources in poultry is limited. Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of dietary addition of 0, 200, 400, or 800 ppb Cr as chromium propionate on growth performance and carcass traits in 0 ...
