Adhesion molecule expression in the bovine mammary gland
(Elsevier, 2007)The bovine mammary gland requires lymphocytes for immune protection of the gland from foreign pathogens and, in addition, to transfer immune protection to the neonate via colostrum and milk. The process of homing primed ... -
Effects of stage of lactation and time of year on plasmin-derived proteolytic activity in bovine milk in New Zealand
(Cambridge University Press, 2002)The objective of this study was to determine the effects of stage of lactation (SOL) and time of year on plasmin-derived proteolytic activity in the milk of pasture-fed dairy cows in New Zealand. Four herds of 20 Friesian ... -
Effects on adhesion molecule expression and lymphocytes in the bovine mammary gland following intra-mammary immunisation
(Elsevier, 2009)Changes to adhesion molecule expression and lymphocyte populations were evaluated in alveolar mammary tissue collected from cows following an immunisation protocol that involved intra-mammary inoculation to induce an IgA ... -
Intragastric preloads of L-tryptophan reduce ingestive behavior via oxytocinergic neural mechanisms in male mice
(Elsevier, 2018)Human and laboratory animal studies suggest that dietary supplementation of a free essential amino acid, l-tryptophan (TRP), reduces food intake. It is unclear whether an acute gastric preload of TRP decreases consumption ... -
Milk whey protein concentration and mRNA associated with β-lactoglobulin phenotype
(2000)Two common genetic variants of β-lactoglobulin (β-lg), A and B, exist as co- dominant alleles in dairy cattle (Aschaffenburg, 1968). Numerous studies have shown that cows homozygous for β-lg A have more β-lg and less ...

Goat’s vs cow’s milk consumption: Analysis of feeding behaviour, brain activation and gene expression in laboratory animals
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Milk is a complex and highly nutritive food. In Western societies, cow’s milk (CM) is most commonly consumed, but recent years have generated interest in milk from other species, especially in goat’s milk (GM). Importantly, ... -
Induction of lgA secretion in the bovine mammary gland
(The University of Waikato, 2005)This thesis investigates molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in lgA secretion in the bovine mammary gland. Our previous research showed that multi-site immunisation during late-pregnancy, involving priming by ... -
How Nutritional and Genetic Factors affect New Zealand Goat Milk Composition
(University of Waikato, 2012)Demand for goat milk produced in New Zealand (NZ) is rapidly growing, particularly in expanding Asian markets. The aim of this study was to investigate how genetic and nutritional factors influence milk composition of NZ ...
