- Effect of dietary thiamin supplementation on milk production by dairy cows
RD Shaver, MA Bal - Journal of dairy science, 2000 - Elsevier
We conducted three experiments to determine the effects of dietary thiamin supplementation
on milk production by dairy cows. In trial 1, 28 Holstein cows were blocked by parity and
assigned randomly to either placebo or thiamin top-dress for the 8-wk experiment to ... - A longitudinal field trial of the effect of biotin on lameness in dairy cows

A longitudinal prospective intervention study investigated the effect of biotin
supplementation on the incidence (new cases per day) of visible lameness in milking cows
and heifers on five commercial farms in Gloucestershire, United Kingdom. The trial lasted ... - Lactation performance by dairy cows fed supplemental biotin and a B-vitamin blend
DN Majee, EC Schwab, SJ Bertics, WM Seymour… - Journal of dairy …, 2003 - Elsevier
The objective of Trial 1 was to evaluate in dairy cows the effects of dietary supplementation
with biotin and a B-vitamin blend on dry matter intake (DMI), milk yield, composition and
component yields, total tract nutrient digestion, and plasma metabolites. Twenty-four ... - Supplemental biotin for swine. II. Influence of supplementation to corn-and wheat-based diets on reproductive performance and various biochemical criteria of sows …

Data from 116 females previously fed a corn-soybean basal diet with 0 or 220 micrograms
supplemental biotin/kg during growth and development were used to study the influence of 0
(NB) or 440 (SB) micrograms of supplemental biotin/kg to corn-(C) or wheat-(W) based ... - Response of sows and litters to added dietary biotin in environmentally regulated facilities
CR Hamilton, TL Veum - Journal of animal science, 1984 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
A 3-yr study was conducted to evaluate the effects of biotin on sow longevity, reproductive
performance and piglet performance to weaning utilizing 161 sows and 414 litters. Sows
and gilts were fed a basal corn-soybean meal diet (without any antibiotic or ... - Effects of supplemental biotin during gestation and lactation on reproductive performance of sows: a cooperative study
AJ Lewis, GL Cromwell… - Journal of animal science, 1991 - Am Soc Animal Sci
A cooperative experiment to evaluate biotin addition to sow diets was conducted at three
research stations using 303 litters. Primiparous and multiparous sows (overall average
parity 2.8) were fed a 14% CP corn-soybean meal diet (140 micrograms/kg biotin), with or ...
