Interpretive Summary: Dose–response effects of a mixed condensed and hydrolyzable tannin extract on methane production and diet digestibility using the in vitro gas production technique
Ruminant animals naturally produce methane during fermentative processes; however, this process represents a loss of dietary energy and has been scrutinized for its potential environmental impacts. Nutritional management strategies, such as the use of…

Interpretive Summary: Effects of clodronate disodium on markers of inflammation and cartilage metabolism in juvenile horses challenged with intra-articular lipopolysaccharide
Extra-label bisphosphonate use has occurred in the juvenile horse despite a lack of scientific evidence, due to perceived anti-inflammatory and chondroprotective benefits. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of clodronate disodium (CD)…

Interpretive Summary: Both elevated lipopolysaccharide and D-lactic acid concentrations in blood contribute to systemic inflammation in acute ruminal acidosis
Acute ruminal acidosis (ARA) is a detrimental metabolic digestive disorder in ruminants, triggered by sudden intake of high-concentrate diets such as corn and wheat flour. This condition leads to a sharp drop in rumen pH and excessive accumulation of…
