Simulation of feed restriction and fasting: Effects on animal recovery and gastrointestinal permeability in unweaned Angus-Holstein calves
(Elsevier, 2022-01-25)
Feed restriction and fasting experienced during commercial production negatively affect unweaned calves' behavior and health status. Transportation and stays at assembly centers are the main factors ...
Effect of decreasing dietary crude protein in fattening calves on the emission of ammonia and greenhouse gases from manure stored under aerobic and anaerobic conditions
(Elsevier, 2022-03-01)
Dietary strategies can potentially help to reduce nitrogen (N) emissions and decrease the environmental impact of beef production. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary crude protein (CP) ...
Effect of rest, post-rest transport duration, and conditioning on performance, behavioural, and physiological welfare indicators of beef calves
(Public Library of Science, 2022-12-01)
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of conditioning, rest, and post-rest transport duration on welfare indicators of 6–7 mo old beef calves following a 20-h transport. Three hundred and ...
Editorial: High added-value nanoparticles: Rethinking and recycling cell protein waste
(Frontiers Media, 2022-09-05)
Evaluation of potential biomarkers to determine adequate colostrum provision in male dairy-beef calves upon arrival at the rearing facility beyond 14 days of age
(Elsevier, 2022-11-21)
Colostrum consumption is crucial for passive immunization and development of the newborn calf. However, the incidence on failed transfer of passive immunity in male calves destined to dairy-beef production ...
Exploring the impact of the recombinant Escherichia coli strain on defensins antimicrobial activity: BL21 versus Origami strain
(BMC, 2022-05-09)
The growing emergence of microorganisms resistant to antibiotics has prompted the development of alternative antimicrobial therapies. Among them, the antimicrobial peptides produced by innate immunity, ...
The future of recombinant host defense peptides
(BMC, 2022-12-21)
The antimicrobial resistance crisis calls for the discovery and production of new antimicrobials. Host defense peptides (HDPs) are small proteins with potent antibacterial and immunomodulatory activities ...
Quality comparison of recombinant soluble proteins and proteins solubilized from bacterial inclusion bodies
(Elsevier, 2022-09-20)
Recombinant protein production in bacteria is often accompanied by the formation of aggregates, known as inclusion bodies (IBs). Although several strategies have been developed to minimize protein ...
Potential of Oral Nanoparticles Containing Cytokines as Intestinal Mucosal Immunostimulants in Pigs: A Pilot Study
(MDPI, 2022-04-21)
Antimicrobial resistance is a global threat that is worryingly rising in the livestock sector.
Among the proposed strategies, immunostimulant development appears an interesting approach to
increase ...
