Abstract:4M1). Growth, feed digestibility and carcass characteristics of male dairy calves infused with growth hormone-releasing factor and/or actively immunized against somatostatin.One week after weaning, 16 animals were immunized (IMM) against human-globulin (hG-IMM) and 16 against SRIF conjugated to hG (SRIF-IMM) in Freund's complete adjuvant.
