Ancillery therapy use and trace mineral supplementation in beef cattle: Impacts on clinical health, immune response variables, animal performance, and carcass traits
(2014-07)
Newly received calves that received antimicrobial treatment for bovine respiratory disease (BRD) were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 experimental ancillary therapy (ANC) groups: flunixin meglumine (NSAID), viral vaccination ...
Bovine respiratory disease: Effects on performance, immune response, cytokines and gene expression
(2009-07)
Scope and Method of Study: The objective was to determine the effects of timing of an intratracheal Mannheimia haemolytica challenge relative to 72-hour exposure to bovine viral diarrhea type 1b (BVDV1b) persistently ...
Molecular epidemiology of Pasteurella multocida respiratory disease in beef cattle
(2008-12)
Two studies were performed to investigate the epidemiology of P. multocida isolated from the respiratory tracts of cattle. The first study used 41 P. multocida isolates obtained from fatal cases of bovine respiratory disease ...
Management of newly received feedlot cattle and the effects of bovine respiratory disease on feedlot performance and carcass attributes
(2009-07)
The effects of serum haptoglobin (Hp) concentration on growing phase performance and Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) morbidity and mortality was evaluated using 337 heifer calves (initial BW = 241.3). Heifers were allocated ...
Gene expression changes in muscle and liver tissue of growing beef calves with bovine respiratory disease
(2011-12)

Essays on production and demand issues in the bovine industry
(2010-07)
Scope, Method of Study, and Findings: This three-essay dissertation seeks to address both production and demand issues in the bovine industry. The first essay assesses the economic effects of bovine respiratory disease ...
Remote ruminal temperature monitoring in feedlot cattle: Effects of bovine respiratory disease, ruminal acidosis, and inclusion of dietary B-adrenergic agonists
(2011-07)
Ruminal temperature monitoring has potential as a useful tool to detect physiological changes in cattle resulting from illness and dietary changes. Heifer calves (n = 366, mean initial BW = 243 +/- 30 kg) were assigned to ...
