Dietary Phosphorus Concentrations Related To Breaking Load And Chemical Bone Properties In Heifers

Effects of dietary P on breaking load and chemical properties of bone were evaluated in growing beef heifers. Initially, 14 weaned Angus heifers received ad libitum a low P diet (.10% P dry basis) for 270 d

Criteria To Evaluate Bone Mineralization In Cattle: Noninvasive Techniques

n experiment was conducted to evaluate the capabilities of dual photon absorptiometry (PA), radiographic photometry (RP), and ultrasound (U) to estimate bone mineral content (BMC) and bone strength of a group of bovine third metacarpals (McIII).
