Abstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of diphenyl diselenide (PhSe) supplementation during the transition period on the metabolism, immunity, oxidative status, and milk production of postpartum dairy cows. Twenty-seven Holstein females were divided into groups: (PhSe) (DDG), which received 3 μmol/kg of (PhSe)2 in 4 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) subcutaneously, DMSO (DMSOG), and NaCl (NACLG) which received 4 mL of DMSO and 0.9% NaCl. Evaluation of body condition score (BCS), weighing and administr… Show more
