Studies On The Vitamin A Content Of Cheese, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
Studies On The Vitamin A Content Of Cheese, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The vitamin-A contents of twenty-two kinds of cheeses were studied by feeding these cheeses to rats whose body stores of vitamin A had been exhausted by being fed a vitamin-A-deficient diet. Twelve experiments were made in which approximately 1100 rats were used. There was considerable variation in the vitamin-A content of the samples studied. The samples of cottage, Neufchatel, and Limburger cheeses had the lowest vitamin-A potency.
The Vitamin A Content Of Soybean Silage And Of A.I.V., Molasses, And Common Corn Silages, And The Effect Of Feeding These Materials Upon The Vitamin A Content Of Milk, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis, J. C. Brauer
The Vitamin A Content Of Soybean Silage And Of A.I.V., Molasses, And Common Corn Silages, And The Effect Of Feeding These Materials Upon The Vitamin A Content Of Milk, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis, J. C. Brauer
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
A study was made of the vitamin A content of soybean silage, and of A.l.V., molasses, and common corn silage. The silages were fed to groups of cows and the vitamin A content of their milk determined. The vitamin A determinations were made by feeding the silage or the milk to groups of rats whose body stores of this vitamin had been depleted by being fed a vitamin-A-deficient ration. Approximately 780 rats were used in these experiments. There were no apparent ill effects of feeding as much as 3.2 grams of the A.l.V. silage per rat per day for eight …
The Vitamin E Content Of Certain Dairy Feeds, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
The Vitamin E Content Of Certain Dairy Feeds, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
A study was made of the vitamin E content of each of the ingredients of our dairy herd ration, excepting the salt, lime, and bone meal. Female rats which were able to conceive but unable to reproduce when fed a diet deficient in vitamin E were fed the various feeds as a source of vitamin E during a second breeding period. The presence of vitamin E in a feed was thus shown by the ability of the female to cast a litter. The vitamin E content of bran, shorts, linseed oil meal, hominy feed, white corn, yellow corn, cottonseed meal, …
The Vitamin A Content Of Skimmilk, Standardized Milk, And Cream From Different Breeds Of Cows, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
The Vitamin A Content Of Skimmilk, Standardized Milk, And Cream From Different Breeds Of Cows, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
A study was made of the vitamin A content of skimmilk, of milk standardized by the addition of separated milk, and of cream. Rats whose body stores of vitamin A had been depleted by being fed a vitamin A deficient ration were fed either skimmilk, standardized milk, or cream as a source of vitamin A. Approximately 750 rats were used in nine experiments. From the results of these experiments the following conclusions were drawn: (1) that the vitamin A content of milk is associated largely with the butterfat and that separated milk containing a small quantity of fat contains only …
The Vitamin A Content Of The Milk Of Holstein, Ayrshire, Jersey, And Guernsey Cows, H. P. Davis, I. L. Hathaway
The Vitamin A Content Of The Milk Of Holstein, Ayrshire, Jersey, And Guernsey Cows, H. P. Davis, I. L. Hathaway
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
A comparative study of the vitamin A content of milk produced by Holstein, Ayrshire, Jersey, and Guernsey cows was made by comparing the growth produced by 560 rats receiving milk from these breeds as their only source of vitamin A. The results showed some slight irregular differences in the gains produced by the milk from the different breeds. When these differences were considered in view of the individual variation of the experimental animals, they appeared negligible. This conclusion was substantiated by a statistical examination of the data. From the results of this study in which the experiments were duplicated, it …
