The influence of trace mineral source on copper distribution within the ruminal contents of steers receiving a pulse dose of either sulfate trace minerals (STM; 20 mg Cu/kg DM from CuSO4; 40 mg Mn/kg DM from MnSO4; 60 mg Zn/kg DM from ZnSO4) or hydroxy trace minerals (HTM; 20 mg Cu/kg DM from CuOHCl; 40 mg Mn/kg DM from MnOHCl; 60 mg Zn/kg DM from ZnOHCl). The x-axis denotes sampling time in hours; the y-axis denotes (A) rumen soluble copper concentrations in mg/L; (B) solid rumen digesta copper concentrations in mg/kg DM; and (C) the percent soluble copper in ruminal digesta. Error bars represent SE (Exp. 2).
