Use of gene profiling to evaluate the effects of a feed additive on immune function in periparturient dairy cattle

Abstract: Summary Objectives were to investigate mechanisms by which a nutritional supplement alters immunity in dairy cattle. Our hypothesis was that feeding this product to dairy cattle altered neutrophil gene expression. Eight periparturient Jersey cattle were randomly assigned to one of two treatments: control and treated. Control animals were fed a dry cow ration for 1 month prior to calving. The treated cows were fed the same ration supplemented with OmniGen‐AF. Following calving, blood samples were taken and neut… Show more

“…Chez ce dernier, les pathologies virales, en l'occurrence la maladie (Herich et Levkut, 2002 ;Yin et al, 2007). Dans ce dernier cas, des suppléments à base d'extraits microbiens, de plantes, de champignons ou des substances d'origine animale ont été expérimentés chez les animaux de compagnie (Chabanne, 2006 ;Desenclos, 2012), les ruminants (Wang et al, 2009 ;Yang et al, 2007), les poissons (Gabor et al, 2012 ;Nya et Austin, 2009) et les volailles (Bouzoubaa et Krull, 2008 ;Awaad et al, 2010 ;Ajakaiye et al, 2010). Cette pratique serait d'autant plus intéressante au niveau de la production de volailles de chair, chez qui les cycles de production courts ne permettent pas l'acquisition d'une immunité active et efficace (Rauw et al, 2009 …”
