Description

increase milk production

Boostin is an injectable long-acting bovine used to increase milk production in well-nourished and properly managed dairy cows from the time of peak lactation to drying off.

Recombinant bovine (usually "rBST"), is a synthetic version of the bovine growth given to dairy cattle by injection to increase milk production.

Bovine (bST), also known as bovine growth , is an animal drug approved by FDA to increase milk production in dairy cows. This drug is based on the naturally produced in cattle.

At a Glance. Recombinant , rBST (previously called bovine ), is a genetically engineered hormone injected into dairy cows to increase milk production. Milk from rBST-treated cows is used in dairy products including ice cream, butter, cheese and yogurt.

rBST is carried to the liver where it stimulates that organ to produce Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF*1), a protein hormone that aids in turning nutrients to milk. IGF*1 is carried to a cow\'s mammary gland where it stimulates milk production. Studies have found that rBST can increase milk production *0% to *0%.
