Studies Of Rickets In Swine, William J. Loeffel, Ray R. Thalman, F. C. Olson, F. A. Olson

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

During the years 1925 to 1929 inclusive, the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station carried on a series of four experiments to study the importance of the antirachitic factors in the nutrition of swine. Vitamin D as obtained from cod-liver oil and the radiant-energy factor of sunlight were the sources of the antirachitic factors that received primary consideration. Emphasis was placed upon the study of the symptoms and lesions produced in pigs fed a rickets-producing ration.
