Negative Energy Balance in Transition Cows Induces Complex Changes in Lipid Profile of Milk
Comprehensive lipidomic profiling of early and mid-lactating milk from two large cohorts of cows allowed us to identify nine lipids (PE 33:1, LacCer 32:1, LacCer 39:1, LacCer 41:1, SM 36:1, SM 36:2, SM 37:1, PEP 38:4 and PEP 38:5) as potential biomarkers of NEB in dairy cows.
