Overview

Evan C. Titgemeyer is affiliated with Kansas State University in the United States and has contributed extensively to the field of agricultural and biological sciences, with a particular focus on ruminant nutrition and digestive physiology. Their body of work spans several interconnected areas including animal nutrition and physiology, muscle metabolism and nutrition, genetics, reproductive physiology in livestock, effects of environmental stressors on livestock, and agricultural sustainability.

The scientist's recent publications, predominantly appearing in recognized journals, reflect ongoing research in cattle nutrition and metabolism. Notable papers include:

  • Effect of post-ruminal guanidinoacetic acid supplementation on creatine synthesis and plasma homocysteine concentrations in cattle, 2020, Journal of Animal Science
  • Methionine-balanced diets improve cattle performance in fattening young bulls fed high-forage diets through changes in nitrogen metabolism, 2020, British Journal of Nutrition
  • Relative bioavailability of guanidinoacetic acid delivered ruminally or abomasally to cattle, 2020, Journal of Animal Science
  • Effects of guanidinoacetic acid supplementation on nitrogen retention and methionine flux in cattle, 2021, Journal of Animal Science
  • Effect of guanidinoacetic acid supplementation on nitrogen retention and methionine methyl group flux in growing steers fed corn-based diets, 2022, Journal of Animal Science

The most frequent venues for publishing their research include:

  • Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
  • Journal of Animal Science
  • Translational Animal Science
  • Animals
  • British Journal of Nutrition

Collaborations have been a substantial aspect of their work, with frequent coauthors including Dale A. Blasi, W. R. Hollenbeck, Madeline S Grant, Sean P. Montgomery, and A. J. Tarpoff. These partnerships have contributed broadly to the multidisciplinary nature of the research output.

Within their domain, Titgemeyer has addressed topics relevant to improving understanding of nitrogen metabolism, creatine synthesis, and supplementation strategies in ruminants. Their research often focuses on the physiological and metabolic mechanisms underpinning animal nutrition, which is integral for advancing livestock production efficiency and sustainability.

In terms of professional recognition, they have been awarded distinctions such as the ASAS Fellow in the Research Category from the American Society of Animal Science in 2016, as well as the American Feed Industry Association Award in Ruminant Nutrition Research from the same society in 2007.
