The Effect of Different Ratio of Methionine-Zinc and Zinc Oxide on Performance Indicators and Diarrhea in Suckling Holstein Calves by Morteza Rezapour, Yadollah Chashnidel, Asadollah Teimoury Yansary, Essa Dirandeh

“…Zinc is an effective anti-inflammatory and anti-diarrheal substance that improves the function of the immune system, reduces the number of pathogenic bacteria and increases the relative abundance of beneficial microbes in the digestive system. It is thought that the mechanisms of anti-diarrheal effect of zinc element are due to regulation of intestinal fluid transfer and mucosal integrity, strengthening of immunity and modulation of oxidative stress. …”
