Forty ewes (n = 20 yearling ewes and n = 20 cull ewes) were fed with alfalfa hay (AH) or a 100 % concentrate diet (CD). Treatments were: a) 10 cull ewes were fed only with AH, b) 10 yearling ewes were fed only with AH, c) 10 cull ewes were fed with CD, d) 10 yearling ewes were fed with CD.

Article Synopsis
- Electronic devices, specifically electronic noses (e-noses) like the Cyranose 320, are being tested for detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in fresh Mexican cheese made from different dairy cattle breeds.
- The study utilized a combination of the e-nose and Solid-Phase Micro-extraction Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (SPME/GC-MS) to identify and analyze the VOCs present in the cheese samples.
- Results showed that the e-nose successfully distinguished between cheese made from Jersey and Holstein milk, with certain VOCs being more prominent in one breed, indicating its potential use in cheese authentication processes.
Herbal formulas during pregnancy have been used in developing countries. Despite that, the potential effects on the mother and offspring and whether those supplements elicit epigenetic modifications is still unknown. Therefore, our objectives were to determine the effects of supplemental herbal choline source (BCho) on the percentage of 5-hmC in whole blood from gestating ewes and their offspring, as well as determining the milk quality and growth of the offspring.
