Estimation Of Undegradable Intake Protein In Forages Using Neutral Detergent Insoluble Nitrogen At A Single In Situ Incubation Time Point, H. L. Haugen, M. J. Lamothe, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Don C. Adams, M. D. Ullerich

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the use of neutral detergent insoluble nitrogen (NDIN) at a single in situ incubation time point to estimate the undegradable intake protein (UIP) in forages as well as to compare rates of NDIN degradation. Forage samples in Exp. 1 comprised diet samples collected from range and meadow pastures monthly from May through September. In Exp. 2, clipped samples of alfalfa, birdsfoot trefoil, kura clover, and smooth bromegrass, and diet samples of the mixed legume-grass and smooth bromegrass were evaluated. Forage samples were incubated in situ for their mean retention time (MRT) estimated from IVDMD …

Determination Of Undegradable Intake Protein Digestibility Of Forages Using The Mobile Nylon Bag Technique, H. L. Haugen, S. K. Ivan, James C. Macdonald, Terry J. Klopfenstein

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Two experiments were conducted using 2 ruminally and duodenally fistulated steers to determine the digestibility of undegradable intake protein (UIP) of smooth bromegrass (Bromis inermis), birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus coniculatus L.), and heat-treated alfalfa (Medicago sativa) using the mobile nylon bag technique. Undegradable intake protein was determined using neutral detergent insoluble CP at a single in situ incubation time point based on 75% of the total mean retention time estimated from IVDMD plus a 10-h passage lag. In Exp. 1, UIP (% DM) of smooth bromegrass in June and July were 1.82 and 1.71, respectively (P …

Effects Of Growth-Promoting Agents And Season On Blood Metabolites And Body Temperature In Heifers, Terry L. Mader, W. M. Kreikemeier

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

To assess the efficacy of growth-promoting agents among seasons, triiodothyronine (T₃), thyroxine (T₄), plasma urea nitrogen (PUN), IGF-I, and tympanic temperature (TT) were measured in summer and winter studies. Heifers (n = 9/pen) were allotted to 12 pens in both December and June. Pens were assigned to 1 of 6 growth promotant treatments: control (no growth promotant), estrogenic implant (E), trenbolone acetate implant (TBA), E + TBA (ET), melengestrol acetate (MGA), and ET + MGA (ETM). Blood samples were collected from 4 heifers per pen per study on d 0, 28, 56, and 84 via jugular …

Technical Note: Estimating Statistical Power Of Mixed Models Used In Dairy Nutrition Experiments, Paul J. Kononoff, Kathryn J. Hanford

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Statistical power is defined as the probability of correctly rejecting the null hypothesis. Power calculations may be useful in planning experiments. The objective of this technical note is to outline an applied method that estimates statistical power of a dairy nutrition experiment that employs a Latin square as the experimental design. Because the SAS MIXED procedure (PROC MIXED) is commonly used to analyze data sets, this note outlines basic programming procedures that may be used to estimate statistical power of a mixed model using this procedure.

Nutritional Quality Of Lunches At A Seventh-Day Adventist School, M. Justine Markert

Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine if what the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade children (n=36) at Central Valley Christian Academy (CVCA) were eating for lunch followed the beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) church and if lunches brought from home (LFH) provided more nutritional quality than combination lunches.

This study showed that LFH (n=26) provided more overall nutrients for the students when compared with school-provided entrée lunches (n=1) and combination lunches (n=9). When comparing LFH with combination lunches, LFH met more of the nutritional requirements based on the Recommended Dietary Intake (RDI) and the Dietary Guidelines for …
