“…Fifty-seven percent of the dietary sulfur from elemental sulfur was lost via the feces, whereas the fecal loss of sulfur from the other sulfur sources ranged from 32.9 to 40.!%. Similar observations were made by Johnson et al (1970). They found that 63.4% of the sulfur in elemental sulfur was lost in the feces, but fecal losses of only 21.8 and 20.4% occurred when sodium sulfate or methionine were fed.…”

“…On the other hand, improvements in ADG and feed efficiency were observed when steers were fed elemental S at 0.32% in dry-rolled corn-based diets compared with 0.14% S corn control (Rumsey, 1978). The absence of negative effects on cattle growth when excess elemental S was fed appears to be related to the lower digestibility (28%) of this source (Johnson et al, 1970).…”

Effects of S from wet or dry distillers grains with solubles (DGS) containing 0.82 or 1.16% S on animal growth performance, carcass characteristics, apparent total tract digestibility, and ruminal parameters were evaluated. In Exp. 1, crossbred beef steers (n = 120; 345 ± 34 kg BW) were individually fed ad libitum using Calan gates. Treatments were applied as a 2 × 2 × 3 + 1 factorial treatment arrangement with factors of DGS type (wet or dry), S content in DGS (0.82 or 1.16% DM basis), and DGS inclusion (20, 30, and 40%, DM basis), as well as a corn control diet (no DGS). In Exp. 2, ruminally cannulated crossbred beef steers (n = 6; 381 ± 31 kg BW) were assigned to 1 of 5 diets in a 5 × 6 unbalanced Latin Square design and fed ad libitum through five 14-d periods. A 2 × 2 + 1 factorial treatment arrangement was used with the factors of DGS type and S content in DGS (similar to Exp. 1). Inclusion of DGS was 40%, except for a MATCH diet containing wet 1.16% S DGS included at 31.4% (DM basis). Intake of DM decreased linearly (P < 0.01) and quadratically (P < 0.01) for steers fed wet and dry DGS that was 1.16% S, respectively. In addition, steers fed dry DGS consumed 9% more DM (P < 0.01) than those fed wet. Gain decreased linearly (P = 0.02) when wet 1.16% S DGS increased in the diet, representing a 12% drop in ADG between the Control and 40% DGS inclusion. A quadratic (P = 0.02) improvement in G:F was observed for steers fed wet DGS compared with dry, regardless of S content (P = 0.52). Feeding diets with wet 1.16% S DGS linearly decreased (P = 0.03) HCW. In Exp. 2, molar proportion of propionate declined (P = 0.01) 9% and A:P ratio tended (P = 0.13) to be greater when 1.16 compared with 0.82% S DGS was fed. Apparent total tract DMD was not affected (P > 0.16) and only subtle changes (P < 0.01) in ruminal pH parameters were observed. Greater (P = 0.02) ruminal H2S concentration for steers fed wet compared with dry DGS was observed, while 1.16% S DGS tended (P = 0.12) to produce greater ruminal H2S than 0.82% S. Sulfur in wet DGS appears to be more prone to be converted to ruminal H2S, because feeding 1.16% S as wet DGS had a greater impact on ADG, DMI, and ruminal H2S compared with dry DGS.

“…For phosphorus determination, the method of Jackson (1973) was followed. Sulphur in feed and faeces was determined by the method of Johnson et al (1970) modified by Bull and Vandersall (1973), while the sulphur in urine was determined following the method of Stockhom and Koch (1923). Drinking water was also analyzed for different minerals but was found to be in non-detectable quantity.…”

Hisardale male lambs (n=24, 4-5 month of age) were maintained on a conventional ration for a month, to equilibrate the body mineral status. Six lambs were sacrificed after one month of feeding; the samples of organs were analyzed to ascertain mineral status. The remaining 18 lambs were divided into 3 groups of 6 each on body weight basis. Three dietary treatments containing 100 (T 1 ), 110 (T 2 ) and 120% (T 3 ) of minerals (Ca, P, S, Zn and Mn) as specified by NRC (1985) were formulated and each treatment was alloted ad libitum to a group for 120 days. Blood and wool samples were collected at monthly intervals. At the end of the experiment a balance trial of 5 days duration was conducted to study the balance of mineral elements. The effective intake of minerals was Ca, 111 and 120, P, 110 and 122; S, 112 and 129; Zn, 112 and 126 and Mn, 109 and 123 percent in T 2 and T 3 , respectively, in comparison to T 1 (100). The additional mineral supplementation had no significant effect on dry matter intake. The average daily weight gain was higher (p<0.01) in T 2 and T 3 than the control (T 1 ). The lambs under treatments T 2 (8.72) and T 3 (8.47 kg) consumed apparently lesser amount of dry matter per unit gain as compared to T 1 (10.81 kg). Significantly higher (p<0.05) dry matter and crude protein digestibility (%) were observed in T 2 and T 3 than in T 1 . The mean balances for different elements were
