Cloning of Dolly the Sheep01:08

Cloning of Dolly the Sheep

5.1K
The first successfully cloned mammal was Dolly, a sheep, born on 5th July 1996 at Roslin Institute, Scotland. The cloned sheep was named after the American singer Dolly Parton. Dolly lived for seven years and died of respiratory complications, which is speculated to be due to the actual age of her DNA. Because the DNA in cloned cells belongs to an older individual,  the cloned individual’s life expectancy may be affected. Indeed, analysis of Dolly’s DNA revealed shorter...

Summary

Calf milk replacers (CMRs) require specific nutrient profiles, including milk proteins, lactose, and fats mimicking milk. Bovine plasma can supplement CMRs, reducing calf mortality and diarrhea.

Area of Science:

  • Animal Nutrition
  • Dairy Science
  • Veterinary Medicine

Background:

  • Calf milk replacers (CMRs) are crucial for young bovine nutrition.
  • Optimizing CMR composition is essential for calf health and growth.
  • Ensuring the safety and efficacy of CMR ingredients is paramount.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the ideal nutritional composition of CMRs.
  • To evaluate the benefits of specific ingredients like bovine plasma.
  • To emphasize quality control in milk pasteurization for CMR production.

Main Methods:

  • Nutritional analysis of milk proteins, lactose, and lipids.
  • Assessment of medium-chain fatty acids from coconut oil.
  • Review of studies on spray-dried bovine plasma efficacy.
  • Evaluation of whole milk pasteurization protocols.

Main Results:

  • CMRs should prioritize milk proteins, lactose, and specific lipid profiles (tallow/lard with coconut oil).
  • Spray-dried bovine plasma effectively reduces calf diarrhea and mortality, replacing milk protein.
  • Adequate vitamin and mineral supplementation is necessary as milk is deficient.

Conclusions:

  • Optimized CMR formulations enhance calf health and reduce mortality.
  • Bovine plasma is a valuable ingredient for improving gut health and reducing disease.
  • Strict pasteurization monitoring and complete vitamin/mineral fortification are vital for effective CMRs.
