Feedlot performance is reduced by heat stress and improved by β adrenergic agonists
(βAA). However, the physiological mechanisms underlying these outcomes are not well …

Abstract Twenty Dorper× Katahdin male lambs (body weight= 33.9±0.4 kg and age= 4.5
months) were individually housed for a 30-d feeding period to evaluate the effects of …

Abstract Twenty-two Katahdin× Dorper ewe lambs (average weight= 23.5±2.8 kg) were
individually housed during a 40-d feeding study and then slaughtered to evaluate effects of …

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved two β-adrenergic agonists
(βAA) for in-feed administration to cattle fed in confinement for human consumption …

Simple Summary As demand for lamb is increasing, shortening the growth cycle and
increasing meat production in lambs are major concerns today. Protein and energy are the …

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ferulic acid (FA) and clinoptilolite (CTL)
supplementation on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality of …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the carcass characteristics, meat quality and fatty acid
profile of lambs fed different levels of sprouted barley (SB) compared to a control group fed a …

Objective We compare the effects of three different approved sources of supplemental
zilpaterol on growth-performance responses and carcass characteristics of finishing lambs …

The aim of this study was to evaluate effects of free ferulic acid (FA) supplementation on
productive performance, some blood metabolite concentrations, and carcass characteristics …

Simple Summary The finishing phase of lambs presents reduced efficiency and growth
rates, due to a higher proportion of gain being fat rather than muscle. Hence, the primary …
