QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF ATLANTIC STURGEON (ACIPENSER OXYRINCHUS) SPERMATOZOA UNDER CONDITIONS OF SHORT-TERM STORAGE
(2009)
Short-term storage trials were conducted in 2008 and 2009 on Atlantic sturgeon semen obtained from captive males, held at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Northeast Fish Technology Center, that were hormonally induced ...
Effects of barrier perches and stocking density on the behavior, space use, and leg health of the domestic fowl (Gallus gallus domesticus)
(2009)
The objective of this study was to discern whether providing enrichment in the form of barrier perches across a range of densities might improve leg and foot health and promote behavioral expression and more even use of ...
Proteomic Profiling and Label-Free Quantification of Bovine Milk Proteins during Experimentally Induced Escherichia coli Mastitis
(2009)
Coliform mastitis has been a primary focus of dairy cattle disease research due to staggering affiliated losses, severe systemic complications arising from host inflammatory response to lipopolysaccharide, and the poor ...
THE FUNCTIONAL REGULATION OF FCRN EXPRESSION AND FCRN-MEDIATED ANTIGEN PRESENTATION
(2009)
The neonatal Fc receptor for IgG (FcRn), a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related molecule, plays an important role in IgG transport and protection. The transport of IgG across epithelial and endothelial ...
DELINEATING THE ROLES OF C. ELEGANS HEME RESPONSIVE GENES HRG-2 AND HRG-3 IN HEME HOMEOSTASIS
(2009)
Heme is an essential cofactor for diverse biological processes such as oxygen transport, xenobiotic detoxification, and circadian clock control. Since free heme is hydrophobic and cytotoxic, we hypothesize that within ...
ASSOCIATION OF SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE POLYMORPHISMS WITH PHENOTYPIC PRODUCTION TRAITS IN BROILER CHICKENS
(2009)
This research investigated the association between SNPs and phenotypic production traits in fat and lean chicken broiler lines. In previous research, eleven SNPs in the promoter regions of four candidate genes were selected. ...
CAN CHOLINE SPARE METHIOININE FROM CATABOLISM IN LACTATING MICE AND DAIRY COWS?
(2009)
Several studies have demonstrated that supplementation of rumen-protected choline (RPC) improves milk production in the lactating dairy cow; however, there are an equal number of studies failing to observe production ...
