Chromium propionate supplementation alters animal growth performance, carcass characteristics, and skeletal muscle properties in feedlot steers

Baggerman, Jessica O.; Smith, Zachary K.; Thompson, Alex J.; Kim, Jongkyoo; Hergenreder, Jerilyn E.; Rounds, Whitney; Johnson, Bradley J. (2020)

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of increasing concentrations of Cr propionate (CrP) on feedlot performance, blood parameters, carcass characteristics, and skeletal muscle fiber properties in feedlot ...

Effects of Encapsulated Methionine on Skeletal Muscle Growth and Development and Subsequent Feedlot Performance and Carcass Characteristics in Beef Steers

Baggerman, Jessica O.; Thompson, Alex J.; Jennings, Michael A.; Hergenreder, Jerilyn E.; Rounds, Whitney; Smith, Zachary K.; Johnson, Bradley J. (2021)

Two studies were conducted to evaluate the effect of encapsulated methionine on live performance, carcass characteristics, and skeletal muscle development in feedlot steers. In Experiment 1, 128 crossbred steers (body ...

Zilpaterol Hydrochloride affects Cellular Muscle Metabolism and Lipid Components of 10 Different Muscles in Feedlot Heifers

Hergenreder, J.E.; Legako, J.F.; Dinh, T.T.N.; Broadway, P.R.; Spivey, K.S.; Baggerman, J.O.; Hutcheson, J.P.; Corrigan, M.E.; Johnson, Bradley J. (2017)

This study determined if zilpaterol hydrochloride (ZH) altered muscle metabolism and lipid components of 10 muscles. Crossbred heifers were either supplemented with ZH (n = 9) or not (Control; n = 10). Muscle tissue was ...

Historical Overview of the Effect of β-Adrenergic Agonists on Beef Cattle Production

Johnson, Bradley J.; Smith, Stephen B.; Chung, Ki Yong (2014)

Postnatal muscle hypertrophy of beef cattle is the result of enhanced myofibrillar protein synthesis and reduced protein turnover. Skeletal muscle hypertrophy has been studied in cattle fed β-adrenergic agonists (β-AA), ...

Chromium propionate enhances adipogenic differentiation of bovine intramuscular adipocytes

Tokach, Rebecca J.; Ribeiro, Flavio R.B.; Chung, Ki Yong; Rounds, Whitney; Johnson, Bradley J. (2015)

In vitro experiments were performed to determine the effects of increasing concentrations of chromium propionate (CrPro) on mRNA and protein abundance of different enzymes and receptors. Intramuscular (IM) and subcutaneous ...

Effect of Direct-Fed Microbial Supplementation on Pathogenic Escherichia coli Fecal Shedding, Live Performance, and Carcass Characteristics in Feedlot Steers

Thompson, Alex; Calle, M. Alexandra; Ribeiro, Flavio R.B.; Pond, Ansen R.; Kreikemeier, Wanda M.; McDonald, Allen; Johnson, Edward G.; Edmonds, Matthew D.; Loneragan, Guy H.; Brashears, Mindy M.; Johnson, Bradley J. (2020)

Three experiments were conducted to evaluate direct-fed microbial (DFM) supplementation on live performance, carcass characteristics, and fecal shedding of E. coli in feedlot steers. In Exp. 1, 400 steers (BW = 348 kg) ...
