Dutch study see risks from feeding certain types of seaweed to dairy cows


Dutch study see risks from feeding certain types of seaweed to dairy cows
Wageningen University recently published a paper about transfer of bromoform present in the seaweed, Asparagopsis taxiformis, when added to the diet of dairy cattle. The results, said the team, suggests that bromoform can then end up in the milk and urine of the cow.
“Bromoform inhibits the formation of methane in the cow's rumen. However, it is also toxic,”​ said Wouter Muizelaar, researcher at Wageningen Livestock Research. Previous research linked A. taxiformis to abnormalities in the rumen wall of sheep. “
That is why we wanted to know what effect A. taxiformis has on cows. Does bromoform end up in milk, urine, manure, or in animal tissue? What happens with it? This research shows that bromoform from A. taxiformis can end up in milk and urine.”​
