Semen Quality Characteristics of Dairy Goats

Journal of Dairy Science, 1988
Semen was collected, processed, and frozen from five dairy bucks for 2 successive yr for use in quality classification and evaluation for inclusion in artificial insemination programs. Semen was evaluated for volume, initial, postthaw and 37 degrees C incubated percent progressive motility, percent postthaw 3-h 37 degrees C incubated intact acrosomes ...

Comprehensive Review on Advancements in Food Preservation Technologies for Quality and Sustainability

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Preservatives limit microbial development, oxidation, and enzymatic degradation, resulting in better food quality and extended shelf life. Classified as natural, synthetic, or biological, each preservative has distinctive attributes and modes of action. Growing preference for natural preservatives aligns with clean label trends.

Transcriptome and proteome of ovarian tissues revealed the differences in the ovaries of dairy goats during the breeding and non-breeding seasons

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Dairy goats represent a crucial species within global dairy livestock. In temperate regions with distinct seasons, dairy goats exhibit reduced reproductive activity under long photoperiod conditions—a phase termed the non-breeding season.

Determination of microbiological characteristics in the digestive tract of different ruminant species

MicrobiologyOpen, 2019
Holstein dairy cows, Chinese Luxi Yellow cattle, Chinese Laoshan dairy goats, and Chinese Bohai Black cattle were selected for the study. The 16S rDNA sequencing technique was used to analyze the microflora in the digestive tract. The rumen flora in high

Dairy Goat Management

Journal of Dairy Science, 1978
Statistically significant published research into the nutritional and breeding management, behavior, and economics of milk production of dairy goats is sparse. Goat numbers in affluent Central Europe have declined greatly since World War II. In Mediterranean, African, Asian, and South American countries, dairy goats have considerable economic ...

Multi‐omics reveals gastrointestinal metabolic disorder‐induced diarrhea in postpartum dairy cows

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Nutritional diarrhea is a pervasive, costly challenge in dairy production. Using integrated metagenomic and metabolomic profiling, we identified coordinated microbial and metabolic alterations across the rumen, hindgut, and serum. In the rumen, enrichment of Prevotella sp.

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Initial research indicates dairy goats used to clear poison oak do not transfer toxicant to milk

California Agriculture, 1992
Dairy goats that eat poison oak do not transfer detectible amounts of the toxic principle, urushiol, to the milk or to the urine. Furthermore, this oily, toxic irritant is found in goat manure at less than 9% of its concentration in ...

Genotype effects on energy and protein requirements in growing male goats

Animal, 2020
Goat genotype may alter the net energy and protein requirements for maintenance (NEm and NPm, respectively) and weight gain (NEg and NPg).This study was designed to investigate and quantify the effect of goat type on NEm, NPm, NEg and NPg, and quantify ...

Separation of trichothecene mycotoxins in a matrix of hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) seed, and quantification of deoxynivalenol in hemp grain infected with Fusarium graminearum

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fusarium graminearum, one of the causal agents of ear rot in maize and head blight of cereal grains, also infects hemp (Cannabis sativa L. containing a maximum of 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol or THC). This fungal pathogen produces trichothecene mycotoxins when it infects maize and cereal grains, but little is known about its production
