An inexpensive, harmless, and quick technique of sample preparation followed by a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the simultaneous quantification of trenbolone acetate and 17beta-trenbolone in cattle muscle is presented. Analysis by HPLC with photo-diode array detector was performed using a short C1 column with an isocratic mobile phase. The method was validated by the analyses of spiked samples, resulting recoveries (> or = 87.9%; relative standard deviations < or = 3.4%), analytical total time (< 20 min/sample, where, a batch of 12 samples in 2 h), and quantitation limits (< or = 1.8 ng/g). No harmful organic solvents and reagents were used at all.

Effects of implant status and breed type on feedlot performance, carcass characteristics, sera metabolites, and immunohistochemical responses in finishing steers.
J Anim Sci

Department of Animal and Food Sciences, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX USA.
The number of beef × dairy animals entering feedlots has increased, but the response of beef × dairy cattle to growth-promoting implants has not been well characterized. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of breed type and implant administration on live performance, carcass characteristics, sera metabolites, and immunohistochemical (IHC) outcomes. Forty-eight steers (average body weight [BW] = 417±22 kg) were sorted by breed into groups of predominantly Angus (B), black-hided beef × primarily Holstein (B×D), or Holstein (D), and half of the steers within each breed type were administered a steroidal implant.

Article Synopsis
- * The paper discusses advanced detection methods, including ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS), which can identify 117 different AAS and corticosteroids at very low concentrations.
- * Successful application of these methods is confirmed through testing of proficiency samples and real cases, such as the detection of nandrolone in hair samples from horses that had been administered the steroid.
Effects of altrenogest supplementation in late lactation on reproductive performance of primiparous sows.

Genetic selection for hyperprolific sows resulted in higher proportion of low birthweight piglets and greater birthweight variation within the litter, increasing preweaning mortality. There is evidence that altrenogest supplementation improves post-weaning reproductive performance through higher ovulation rates, and increased embryo survival. This study aimed to evaluate the impacts of altrenogest supplementation during the last week of lactation in primiparous sows on subsequent reproductive performance.

Article Synopsis
- * A new liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed to detect trace levels of various HGPs in retail meat, using a simpler extraction process that requires less meat compared to past methods.
- * This method demonstrated strong performance in sensitivity and precision, with detection limits ranging from 0.1 to 1.0 ng/g, and did not require complicated sample preparation, making it effective for monitoring HGP exposure in meat products.

Altrenogest, also known as allyltrenbolone, is a synthetic form of progesterone used therapeutically to suppress unwanted symptoms of estrus in female horses. Altrenogest affects the system by decreasing levels of endogenous gonadotrophin and luteinizing and follicle-stimulating hormones, which in turn decreases estrogen and mimics the increase of progesterone production. This results in more manageable mares for training and competition alongside male horses while improving the workplace safety of riders and handlers.
