Poloxalene for prevention of legume bloat.

Journal of Dairy Science, 1968
Abstract The effectiveness of poloxalene was compared with penicillin in the control of bloat in cattle experimentally grazed on Ladino clover. Experiment I involved the use of poloxalene incorporated in grain pellets and Experiment II the use of poloxalene in salt-molasses blocks.

Effects of Feeding Poloxalene on Milk Flavor

Journal of Dairy Science, 1967
Abstract Cows in mid-lactation were pastured on bromegrass or rye or fed freshly cut alfalfa. Two sets of fistulated identical-twin dry cows were maintained on the same feed and feeding schedule. Half of the cows involved in each feeding trial were administered poloxalene twice daily at 0.044 g per kg of body weight.

Bloat in Cattle. X. Efficacy of Poloxalene in Controlling Alfalfa Bloat in Dairy Steers and in Lactating Cows in Commercial Dairy Herds

Journal of Dairy Science, 1965
Abstract Three experiments tested the efficacy of a nonionic surfactant, poloxalene, a polyoxypropylene polyoxyethylene block polymer, to control alfalfa bloat. In Experiment I, four Kansas dairy herds were used in the spring of 1964. Half of each herd served as controls and half were fed poloxalene. All were provided succulent alfalfa.

Dietary supplementation with Pluronic L-81 modifies hepatic secretion of very low density lipoproteins in the rat.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1986
Supplementation of high fat/cholesterol-enriched diets with polyoxypropylene-polyoxyethylene copolymers containing 90% hydrophobic constituents has been found to impair enteric secretion of chylomicrons, lower plasma levels of very low density (VLDL) and

Nonionic Surfactant Vesicles in Ocular Delivery: Innovative Approaches and Perspectives

BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
With the recent advancement in the field of ocular therapy, drug delivery approaches have been elevated to a new concept in terms of nonionic surfactant vesicles (NSVs), that is, the ability to deliver the therapeutic agent to a patient in a staggered profile.

Diet Composition and Dry Matter Intake of Beef Steers Grazing Tall Fescue and Alfalfa

Crop Science, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 2817-2825, November 2012., 2012
ABSTRACT Alkanes are a noninvasive method to estimate dry matter intake (DMI) of grazing herbivores. Other cuticular wax components such as long chain fatty alcohols (LCOH) have been used for estimation of diet composition of ruminants eating mixed diets.

Expected Economic Potential of Substituting Legumes for Nitrogen in Bermudagrass Pastures

Crop Science, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 1923-1930, July 2012., 2012
ABSTRACT Grazing warm‐season grass pastures with stocker cattle (Bos taurus) is an important economic activity in the southern Great Plains, and substantial increases in the price of N fertilizer have negatively affected profitability of forage producers.

Production and Economics of Grazing Alfalfa in the Southern Great Plains

Crop Science, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 1424-1429, May 2012., 2012
ABSTRACT Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a high‐quality forage legume that may have potential to improve net returns to stocker cattle producers in the southern Great Plains. The objective of this 3‐yr field study was to compare the agronomic and economic performance of alfalfa grazing systems under two management strategies.

Grazing Behavior and Diet Preference of Beef Steers Grazing Adjacent Monocultures of Tall Fescue and Alfalfa: II. The Role of Novelty

Crop Science, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 1815-1823, July 2011., 2011
ABSTRACT Domestic ruminants select a mixed diet when grazing heterogeneous pastures. Adjacent monocultures allow diet preference to be evaluated without certain constraints that could influence diet selection; however, few forage species have been evaluated. Adjacent monocultures of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) and alfalfa (Medicago sativa

Grazing Behavior and Diet Preference of Beef Steers Grazing Adjacent Monocultures of Tall Fescue and Alfalfa: I. Spatial Allocation

Crop Science, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 1314-1324, May 2011., 2011
ABSTRACT Adjacent forage monocultures are a valuable tool to study the diet preference of grazing animals. Previous research has suggested that cattle will exhibit a partial preference for a legume over a grass regardless of forage species. The objective of this study was to determine if beef steers have a partial preference for alfalfa (Medicago ...
