Caffeine is widely used to improve neonatal health in animals with low vitality. Due to its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, caffeine stimulates the cardiorespiratory system by antagonism of adenosine receptors and alteration in Ca⁺² ion channel activity. Moreover, the availability of...

We tested the hypothesis that the consumption of different milk lipids is one of the factors affecting metabolic response to lipid in the early life of infants. Neonatal piglets, as animal models, were stratified by the feeding mode (formula-fed, bovine-, caprine-, and human milk-fed). Lipidomic...

This study investigated the structural and physicochemical changes that occur in milk, a naturally designed complex structured emulsion, during gastric digestion using the bottle-fed piglet as an animal model. The gastric digestions of cow, goat, and sheep milk were compared in male piglets...

Milk can improve sleep, and the effects of different animal milks vary. Accordingly, we evaluated the effectiveness of goat milk and cow milk in alleviating insomnia. The findings demonstrated that both goat milk and cow milk significantly increased the length of time that mice with insomnia slept...

Safrole, a 162.2 Da natural compound belonging to the alkenylbenzenes class, is classified as a possible carcinogen to humans by IARC (group IIB) and has proven to be genotoxic and carcinogenic to rodents. Despite its use as a food or feed additive, it is forbidden in many countries due to its...

Nutritional deficits in one's diet have been established as the key risk factor for T2DM in recent years. Nutritional therapy has been demonstrated to be useful in treating T2DM. The current study was carried out to assess the nutritional composition of bovine (12 months), chicken (4 months), sheep ...

Goat milk is rich in nutrients and easy to digest. It has received widespread attention because of its similar nutritional composition to that of cow's milk. This study evaluated the allergenicity of a goat milk formula powder through the decision tree for foods in allergenicity assessment...

This study was designed to investigate the effects of dietary starch structure on muscle protein synthesis and gastrointestinal amino acid (AA) transport and metabolism of goats. Twenty-seven Xiangdong black female goats (average body weight = 9.00 ± 1.12 kg) were randomly assigned to three...

This proceedings contains 89 papers on the development and application of models to predict the nutrient requirements, feed intake, behaviour, nutrition physiology, digestibility, feed formulation, production responses and environmental impact of cattle, pigs, sheep, goats and chickens.

Cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) is considered as the most common food allergy in early life and may cause anaphylaxis reactions in severe cases. This review summarises recent findings in CMPA studies, especially regarding the main relevant cow's milk substitutes such as hydrolysed and plant-based ...
