Genetic parameter estimates of liver abscesses in feedlot beef cattle.

Journal of animal science - 4 Jan 2025

Hess Melanie K, McDermott Rebecca L, Erickson Galen E, Spangler Matthew L

Abstract excerpt

The primary reason livers are condemned is due to abscesses, which are visible lesions detected on the liver during routine harvest of the animal. Condemned livers are deemed not fit for human consumption, and result in over $15M in lost income to the U.S. beef industry each year. Liver scoring is a 4-level measurement of abscess severity: 0 (no abscesses), A- (mild: 1 to 2 small abscesses), A (moderate: 2 to 4...
