Fatty liver disease in dairy cattle – risk factors, symptoms and prevention
<b>Fat cow syndrome (fatty liver disease) is a common metabolic problem in dairy cow production during the transition period, from the dry period to lactation. This syndrome occurs when due to liver uptake of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs), they are stored in excess as triacylglycerols (TA...
