Can the post-ruminal urea release impact liver metabolism, and nutritional status of beef cows at late gestation?

Can the post-ruminal urea release impact liver metabolism, and nutritional status of beef cows at late gestation?

We aimed to evaluate the effects of post-ruminal supply of urea (PRU) on nutritional status, and liver metabolism of pregnant beef cows during late gestation.
