Abstract:Two separate experiments were conducted with alloxan-induced, diabetic ewes. In one study it was found that the diabetes induced by alloxan could be stabilized with exogenous insulin (1.2-1.3 U h-1). Feed intake and milk yield were maintained at normal levels even though a mild hyperglycaemia persisted. Despite this, milk fat content tended to increase, an observation that is consistent with insulin being a key factor in the aetiology of the low-milk-fat syndrome in the ruminant. Interruption of insulin infusi… Show more

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
