Effect of palmitic acid-enriched supplements containing stearic or oleic acid on nutrient digestibility and milk production of low- and high-producing dairy cows

Abstract: We evaluated the effects of fatty acid (FA) supplement blends containing 60% palmitic acid (C16:0) and either 30% stearic acid (C18:0) or 30% oleic acid (cis-9 C18:1) on nutrient digestibility and milk production of low-and high-producing dairy cows. Twenty-four multiparous Holstein cows [118 ± 44 d in milk (DIM)] were divided into 2 blocks by milk production and then randomly assigned to treatment sequence in four 3 × 3 Latin squares within production level, balanced for carryover effects in three consecutive… Show more

“…Even with high production, the values found in the studied cows were still below those described for high-producing Holstein cows, ranging from 40 to 50 kg/day [31][32][33], but were similar to those found in Jersey cows, ranging from 31 to 37 kg/day [34] and in Simmental cows [35]. These values are also higher than those usually reported for crossed Holstein × Gyr cows, which range from 20 to 30 kg/day [5,14,16,17,36].…”

“…The existence of numerous compounds in the present study such as phytol (derivative of chlorophyll), hexadecenoic acid (palmitic acid), octadecanoic acid (stearic acid), and flavonoids might be responsible for the galactagogic properties owing to the action of a single compound or conjoint action of all compounds. Investigation conducted by other investigators also put forward that some of the phytoconstituents are accountable for increased milk yield in farm animals which is also in line with our findings [43][44][45][46][47][48]. Further research is required on mouse mammary cell lines and in other mammalian models to come to a definite conclusion.…”

“…In this study, including cis-9 C18:1 in the supplemental FA blend increased total FA digestibility (de Souza et al, 2018). Other feeding studies have also demonstrated increased FA digestibility in diets supplemented with cis-9 C18:1 compared with diets that included SFA supplements (Western et al, 2020b;Burch et al, 2021;. In our current study, the T80 treatment contained ~5g/d of cis-9 C18:1 and increased total FA absorption by 53.0 g/d.…”
