Milk production and plasma gossypol of cows fed cottonseed and oilseed meals with or without rumen-undegradable protein
JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE, 81(11), 2934–2941.
author keywords: cottonseed meal; soybean meal; rumen-undegradable protein; gossypol
MeSH headings : Acetates / metabolism; Amino Acids, Branched-Chain / blood; Animals; Blood Urea Nitrogen; Cattle / physiology; Cottonseed Oil; Dietary Fats, Unsaturated / administration & dosage; Dietary Fiber / administration & dosage; Dietary Proteins / administration & dosage; Dietary Proteins / metabolism; Fatty Acids, Volatile / metabolism; Female; Gossypol / blood; Lactation; Medicago sativa; Milk / chemistry; Rumen / metabolism; Soybeans; Zea mays
TL;DR:
Data suggest that cottonseed meal in the diet can be substituted for soybean meal, resulting in similar milk production and composition, and plasma gossypol concentrations for all cows in each group were below the recommended upper limit.
