Protein Supplementation during Mid-Gestation Alters the Amino Acid Patterns, Hepatic Metabolism, and Maternal Skeletal Muscle Turnover of Pregnant Zebu Beef Cows

From 100 to 200 days of gestation, 52 cows carrying male (<i>n</i> = 30) or female (<i>n</i> = 22) fetuses were assigned to CON (basal diet—5.5% of CP, <i>n</i> = 26) or SUP (basal diet + protein supplement [40% CP, 3.5 g/kg BW]—12% of CP, <i>n</i> = 2...
