Ten steers served as controls, the remaining 40 steers (20 steers/treatment) were injected either intramuscular (IM) or subcutaneous (SQ) with 1500 IU of vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol). Vitamin E treatments were administered on days 1 and 8 of the arrival, while blood samples were obtained on days 1, 4, 8, 12 and 16. Injection sites were examined visually on day 16 to determine if route of administration affected incidence of injection-site inflammation. Steers were fed a steam-flaked corn based receiving diet with a 72:28 concentrate-to-forage ratio. Plasma alpha-tocopherol concentrations of control steers remained low (range from 0.06 to 0.10 mg/dL) throughout the 16-d period. Vitamin E injection increased (P&lt;0.01) 4-fold the plasma alphatocopherol concentration. Route of vitamin E administration did not influence (P &gt; 0.10) the incidence of injection site inflammation, averaging 17.5% (&#967;2, P&gt;0.05). Plasma alpha-tocopherol concentrations were not affected (P &gt; 0.30) by the presence of injection site inflammation. Since the risk of lesions in meat are considerably higher with intramuscular application and plasma alpha-tocopherol concentrations were not different between routes of application, it is concluded that subcutaneous administration is a practical alternative to the traditional intramuscular of administration of injectable vitamin E for feedlot cattle.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="es"><p><![CDATA[Resumen Cincuenta becerros Holstein (121 ± 4 kg) se utilizaron con el objetivo de determinar la eficacia de la vía de administración de la vitamina E al tiempo de llegada de los becerros al corral de engorda sobre los niveles de concentración plasmática de alfa-tocoferol durante los primeros 16 días de su llegada al corral. Diez becerros se utilizaron como testigos y los 40 restantes (20 becerros por tratamiento) fueron inyectados con 1500 IU de vitamina E (d-alfa tocoferol) ya sea por vía intramuscular (IM) o por vía subcutánea (SC). Los tratamientos de vitamina E se administraron al primer día y al día 8 de la llegada, mientras que las muestras de sangre se obtuvieron en los días 1, 4, 8, 12 y 16. Los sitios de inyección se examinaron visualmente en el día 16 para determinar si la vía de administración afectaba la incidencia de la inflamación. Los becerros fueron alimentados con una dieta de recepción conteniendo una proporción concentrado: forraje de 72:28. La concentración plasmática de alfa-tocoferol permaneció baja (rango de 0.06 a 0.10 mg/dL) en el grupo testigo durante los 16 días. La inyección de vitamina E incrementó (P&lt;0.01) 4 veces la concentración de alfa-tocoferol en plasma. La vía de administración de vitamina E no influyó (P&gt; 0.10) la incidencia de la inflamación en el lugar de la inyección promediando 17,5% (&#967;2, P&gt; 0,05). Las concentraciones de alfa-tocoferol en plasma no se vieron afectados (P&gt; 0.30) por la presencia de inflamación en el lugar de inyección. La administración subcutánea de vitamina E inyectable es una alternativa práctica a la tradicional ruta de administración intramuscular.]]></p></abstract>
