Posilac is a slow-release, long-lasting formula of bovine growth hormone which I've used successfully in the past to study fundamental physiological, behavioral and ecological effects of GH and fast growth in fish. It was produced by Monsanto which had a generous policy of supplying it for basic research projects. Since a few years back, however, it's production has been taken over by Eli-Lilly/Elanco Animal Health, which don't seem to have the same policy for supporting basic research.

I know Posilac is used by a lot of US dairy farmers, and perhaps elsewhere in central and South America, but it's not allowed for dairy production in Europe (where I'm working).
