The Role of Maternal Protein Intake During Late Gestation on Placental Vascular Function
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Global nutrient restriction or excess can influence umbilical hemodynamics in sheep fetuses (Chapter 2). We hypothesized that a specific component of the diet, namely maternal metabolizable protein (MP), would alter placental ...
Influence of Cut, Cooking Method, and Post-Mortem Aging on Beef Palatability
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
The objectives of these studies were to determine the effects of cut, cooking method, and postmortem aging on improving consumers' perception of beef. Consumers evaluated bottom round, top sirloin, ribeye, and a value cut ...
Impacts of Beef Cow Nutrition on Conceptus Development
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of maternal nutrient restriction followed by realimentation during early to mid-gestation on uterine blood flow (BF), maternal performance, and conceptus development ...
Supplementing Metabolizable Protein to Ewes during Late Gestation: Effects on Ewe and Offspring Performance
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
We hypothesized that MP intake at or above requirements during late gestation would improve dam and offspring performance. In year 1, ewes received one of three isocaloric dietary treatments during late gestation: 60MP1: ...
