For more than 80 years, liver abscesses have been documented to reduce beef system value. These infections of liver tissue result in poorer growth performance as evidenced by diminished live and carcass weights, leaner and lesser muscled carcasses, and greater rates of trim. Those negative outcomes are compounded by reduced animal and carcass value. As technology advances, methods to reduce and prevent liver abscesses should be a goal of scientists and producers worldwide.
八十多年来，肝脓肿已被证实会降低牛肉体系的价值。这些肝脏组织感染会导致生长性能下降，表现为活重和胴体重减轻、体脂率和肌肉率降低，以及修剪率增加。这些负面影响还会导致动物和胴体价值降低。随着技术的进步，减少和预防肝脓肿的方法应该成为全世界科学家和生产者的目标。
