In this issue, read about the effects of increasing dietary levels of a palmitic acid-enriched supplement on fiber digestibility, rumen fermentation and microbial composition in high-fiber diets. Also: a study that examined the antioxidant activity of two brown algae, Ascophyllum nodosum (AN) and Fucus vesiculosus (FV), and their ability to mitigate oxidative stress in vitro and in vivo. Another that investigated how elevated liver copper (Cu) concentrations impact disease response in lightweight beef-on-dairy crossbred steers. And how several of us on the Feedworks team helped to demonstrate the effects of Salmate DHA+ on sperm production in boars. Read these studies and more at the link below.
