Determining the efficacy of a biosensor to detect calpastatin, a meat tenderness indicator
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
An instrumental tenderness detection system used at the time of grading to sort beef carcasses on their predicted tenderness would be valuable for the beef industry. A biosensor to accurately predict calpastatin, the ...
Effects of heat stress on leukocyte function and gene expression in lactating dairy cows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The effects of heat stress in animal agriculture are expected to become more serious as global temperatures continue to increase. Negative effects on production, reproduction...
Extracellular vesicles, lipids, and lipoproteins in early pregnant sheep
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
will fill crucial gaps in our knowledge of early pregnancy events and may provide biomarkers or help develop therapies to improve pregnancy outcomes and reproductive efficiency in agricultural species....
The effects of elevated temperature on preimplantation-stage porcine embryos
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
It was the objective of these experiments to more fully characterize the biochemical and developmental responses of in vitro-produced preimplantation stage porcine embryos to elevated temperatures. In vitro fertilized (IVF) ...
