Added dietary cobalt or vitamin B12, or injecting vitamin B12 does not improve performance or indicators of ketosis in pre- and post-partum Holstein-Friesian dairy cows (2018)
Journal Article
Weerathilake, W. A. D. V., Brassington, A. H., Williams, S. J., Kwong, W. Y., Sinclair, L. A., & Sinclair, K. D. (2019). Added dietary cobalt or vitamin B12, or injecting vitamin B12 does not improve performance or indicators of ketosis in pre- and post-partum Holstein-Friesian dairy cows. animal, 13(4), 750-759. https://doi.org/10.1017/S175173111800232X

Vitamin B12 is synthesised in the rumen from cobalt (Co) and has a major role in metabolism in the peri-paturient period, although few studies have evaluated the effect of the dietary inclusion of Co, vitamin B12 or injecting vitamin B12 on the metab...

Physiological responses of cultured bovine granulosa cells to elevated temperatures under low and high oxygen in the presence of different concentrations of melatonin (2017)
Journal Article
Zeebaree, B. K., Kwong, W. Y., Mann, G. E., Gutierrez, C. G., & Sinclair, K. D. (2018). Physiological responses of cultured bovine granulosa cells to elevated temperatures under low and high oxygen in the presence of different concentrations of melatonin. Theriogenology, 105, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.theriogenology.2017.09.014

Our understanding of the effects of temperature on granulosa cell (GC) physiology is primarily limited to in vitro studies conducted under atmospheric (approx 20% O2) conditions. In the current series of factorial experiments we identify important ef...
