It has been used as an appetite stimulant in humans and chickens (Injidi and Forbes, 1987) and to increase follicular development during lactation in sheep (Kridli and Hallford, 1997). Its prolonged use has been associated with type I diabetes mellitus in humans (Yoon et al., 1987). The effects of this drug on appetite and glucose metabolism in sheep have not been studied. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | RAAN 2009: Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition - Australia, Armidale, Australia, 12th - 15th July, 2009 | Source of Publication: | Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition - Australia, v.17, p. 187-187 | Publisher: | University of New England | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | ISSN: | 0819-4823 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 110102 Medical Biochemistry: Carbohydrates | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 920104 Diabetes | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E3 Extract of Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.conferencecompany.com.au/animalnutrition/ http://www.conferencecompany.com.au/animalnutrition/RAAN_Full_Program.pdf |
