ABSTRACT
Sham-fed nonfat milk was incubated with filled milks containing 8% of various fats and oils. When related to evaporated milk (7.9% fat, relative activity 100), activities for butteroil, colostrum fat, coconut fat, choice white pork grease, refined lard, tallow, soybean oil, and corn oil were 87.3, 87.2, 70.8, 28.5, 14.1, 14.2, 22.9 and 18.1.
In a second study, residual glycerides in various sections of the gastrointestinal tract of seven-day old calves were examined after milk replacers containing lard or milk fat were fed. Significantly greater proportions of triglycerides were in contents of the abomasum, descending and ascending duodenum, and first 2 m of jejunum of calves fed lard-filled milks than of calves fed milk fat-filled milks. Abomasal diglyceride and monoglyceride fractions were lower (P < 0.01) for calves fed lard-filled milk than for calves receiving milk fat-filled milk; however, by the time intestinal contents reached the jejunum, only monoglycerides were significantly lower (P < 0.05).
