Variations in parameters of liver function and plasma progesterone related to underfeeding and ketosis in a dairy herd

Twenty-eight Norwegian Red Cattle dairy cows were fed silage ad libitum and restricted amounts of concentrates. Blood samples were collected before morning feeding, once or twice weekly, from 2 weeks before to 12 weeks after calving. Parameters of liver function, carbohydrate status and fertility were recorded in order to assess their interrelationships. Eight cows were treated for clinical ketosis. Four of these had to be treated 2 or 3 times. Aspartate aminotransferase and bilirubin showed the highest within-animal coefficients of correlation with acetoacetate. Analysis of variance revealed a significant effect of carbohydrate status (indicated by plasma acetoacetate levels) on the levels of aspartate aminotransferase, glutamate dehydrogenase and sorbitol dehydrogenase, though only a small part of the total variation was explained by this factor. The estimated volume density of liver fat in the 4th week of lactation averaged 6.0 +/- 6.4% (+/- SD) ranging from 0.1-25.1%. Liver fat content at this stage of lactation was not significantly correlated with other indicators of liver function or carbohydrate status. Cows treated for clinical ketosis had significantly lower plasma progesterone values at the time of first ketosis treatment than untreated multiparous cows. The frequency of high progesterone values (greater than 3 ng/ml) being significantly lower in treated than in untreated cows during the period from 3-5 weeks post partum, though not at later stages. In conclusion, the results revealed a significant relationship between carbohydrate status and liver function, and also between clinical ketosis and luteal function.     

低聚糖对雏鸡大肠粪便NH3-N含量及肠道菌群的影响

试验选取1日龄罗曼蛋公雏250只，随机分为5组，试验组饲料或饮水中分别添加海藻糖(500mg／kg)、海藻胶(600mg／kg)、大豆寡糖(500mg／kg)、圆葱寡糖(500mg/d)。结果表明，四种低聚糖均可促进肠道乳酸菌及双歧杆菌的生长繁殖，对魏氏梭菌的生长呈现抑制作用。海藻糖、海藻胶对降低大肠粪便NH3—N含量效果不显著(P＞0．05)，而大豆寡糖效果显著(P＜0．05)，圆葱寡糖效果极显著(P＜0.01)。     

羔羊全营养代乳粉对羔羊增重影响的试验

为了研究羔羊出生后采取人工饲喂代乳粉溶液的效果，对10日龄羔羊称重，以平均日增重与母乳组比较，用t检验方法检验差异显著性。研究结果显示羔羊平均日增重试验组为0.097-0.126kg，母乳组为0.071-0.113kg，二者没有显著差异。在生产中，代乳粉能替代绵羊母乳饲喂羔羊，对多胎品系羊的推广应用以及解决绵羊缺乳、少乳或无乳问题具有重要意义。

本文利用 SPSS数据处理软件 (10 .0版 )统计分析了 2 3只 (约 8～ 9月龄 )波尔山羊与唐山奶山羊杂交后代公羊的体尺、体重和肉用性能。结果表明 :(1)波尔山羊与唐山奶山羊杂交 F1 代体尺、体重与肉用性能指标的变异程度大于 F2 代 ,其中宰前重、胴体重、净肉重和胸宽四项指标变异程度在 F1 和 F2 代中都很大 ;(2 )杂交 F1 代、F2 代各项指标 t检验结果 ,除胸宽外其余指标差异显著或极显著 ;(3 )波尔山羊杂交后代中胸宽与各项指标间相关不显著 ,宰前重、胴体重、净肉重与体尺指标相关显著或不显著。     

Organic Acids Placed into the Cloaca to Reduce Campylobacter Contamination of Broiler Skin During Defeathering

Campylobacter numbers on broiler carcasses can increase dramatically during defeathering because of leakage of contaminated gut contents in the feather-picking machine. Food-grade organic acids have been shown to be effective in killing bacteria. Placement of organic acids into the cloaca prior to defeathering was tested to determine if such a treatment could lower the number of Campylobacter that escape and contaminate broiler breast skin during automated feather removal. Campylobacter numbers on the breast skin of treated carcasses increased during defeathering but resulted in numbers that were only about 2% of those observed on control carcasses. Placement of food-grade organic acids in the cloaca of broiler carcasses may be useful as a means to lessen the impact of automated defeathering on the microbiological quality of carcasses during processing.

赤霉酸及矮壮素对苦瓜性别表现的影响

以兰山大白、株洲长白和英引３个苦瓜品种为材料进行外源激素处理对苦瓜植株性别表现影响的试验．结果表明，苗期进行ＧＡ３２５～１００ｍｇ／Ｌ处理有明显的促雌效果；ＣＣＣ５０～２００ｍｇ／Ｌ处理则有促雄效果，但促雄程度因品种而异，ＣＣＣ５００ｍｇ／Ｌ处理对兰山大白有适度的促雌作用．外源激素处理对苦瓜植株性别分化的影响可持续８０ｄ以上．苦瓜第一雌花形成与茎尖ＧＡ３含量达到峰值有关，２５ｍｇ／Ｌ的ＧＡ３处理使茎尖ＧＡ３含量的峰值提前出现而使第一雌花形成提早，而１００ｍｇ／ＬＣＣＣ处理使茎尖ＧＡ３含量先下降再逐渐回升而使植株第一雌花形成滞后

罐顶对罐壁应力的影响

在大型油罐设计中采用线性理论的方法,分析论述了罐顶对罐壁是否产生影响这一问题。通过对拱顶油罐、浮顶油罐的罐壁边界条件、罐顶边界条件的分析计算,求出各层壁板挠度方程中的待定系数,便可得出其应力。从线性方程中,可看出影响罐壁应力的主要因素是挠度方程中的待定系数。待定系数除受储罐尺寸、液位高度的影响外,还受罐顶重量、罐顶剪力和弯矩的影响。以10万m~3浮顶油罐和拱顶油罐为例,进一步证明,液位是罐壁应力的控制因素,而罐顶重量、罐顶剪力和弯矩对罐壁应力的影响可以忽略不计。
