The effects of supplemental niacin and methionine on serum glucose, betahydroxybutyric acid, and non-esterified fatty acid levels during late gestation and early postpartum period in Damascus dairy goats

In conclusion, dietary Nia and Metsupplementation improved serum glucose levels on day 125 of gestation while decreasing β-HBA and NEFA levels during late gestationand early postpartum period in Damascus dairy goats under the conditions of present study.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯

Objective & Hypothesis:The objective of this study was to assess the changes in serum glucose, beta-hydroxybutyric acid (β-HBA), and nonesterifiedfatty acid (NEFA) levels in Damascus dairy goats fed niacin (Nia) and methionine (Met) during late gestation and early postpartumperiod.

📊

Key Findings & Data:A total of 75 dairy goats at 105th day of gestation were divided into 3 groups as control (no supplementation), Nia (20 g/kgNia), and Met (2.5 g/kg Met) groups.

💡

Conclusion & Impact:In conclusion, dietary Nia and Metsupplementation improved serum glucose levels on day 125 of gestation while decreasing β-HBA and NEFA levels during late gestationand early postpartum period in Damascus dairy goats under the conditions of present study.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to assess the changes in serum glucose, beta-hydroxybutyric acid (β-HBA), and nonesterifiedfatty acid (NEFA) levels in Damascus dairy goats fed niacin (Nia) and methionine (Met) during late gestation and early postpartumperiod. A total of 75 dairy goats at 105th day of gestation were divided into 3 groups as control (no supplementation), Nia (20 g/kgNia), and Met (2.5 g/kg Met) groups. The dietary treatments continued until parturition. Dairy goats fed dietary Nia had greater serumglucose levels on day 125 of gestation compared to the other dietary treatments (P < 0.05). On day 135 of pregnancy, serum glucoselevels were higher in Met group than control group (P < 0.05). Serum β-HBA levels decreased on days 135 and 145 in dairy goats fedNia than those in control group. Dietary Nia and Met lowered serum β-HBA levels on day 10 postpartum compared to control group(P < 0.05). Serum NEFA levels decreased (P < 0.05) on days 135 and 145 in dairy goats fed Nia supplemented ration than those incontrol group. Serum NEFA levels d 10 postpartum were different among the groups (P < 0.05). In conclusion, dietary Nia and Metsupplementation improved serum glucose levels on day 125 of gestation while decreasing β-HBA and NEFA levels during late gestationand early postpartum period in Damascus dairy goats under the conditions of present study.
