Feeding Solanum glaucophyllum to preparturient multiparous cows prevents postparturient hypocalcemia

Solanum glaucophyllum (SG) contains 1,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D₃ (1,25‐(OH)₂D₃) glycosides. We investigated the effect of SG on hypocalcemia in cows. Serum levels of 1,25‐(OH)₂D₃, total calcium and phosphorus dose‐relatedly increased after feeding with SG, while serum magnesium and chloride levels fell (P < 0.05). We also performed an ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) infusion to induce artificial hypocalcemia. Cows that had been fed 4.0 mg/kg body weight of SG daily for 2 weeks had a higher serum concentration of total calcium at the end of EDTA infusion than those not fed SG (P < 0.05). In a field trial, multiparous cows were assigned to one of four groups: (1) no SG, (2) 1.3 g or (3) 2.6 g of SG daily from 14 days before the estimated calving day until 3 days after calving, or (4) a single feed of 35.75 g SG at 3 days before the estimated calving day. The concentrations of serum total calcium after the calving in each treatment group were (1) 7.4, (2) 7.9, (3) 8.0 and (4) 8.9 mg/dL and higher for (4) than for (1) (P < 0.05). The data suggests that feeding a high dose of SG before the calving may maintain higher concentrations of serum calcium after the calving.

代乳粉添加甘露寡糖对7—28日龄湖羊羔羊胃肠道发育的影响

【目的】探讨代乳粉中添加甘露寡糖（mannan oligosaccharides,MOS）对7—28日龄湖羊羔羊胃肠道生长发育的影响。【方法】选择同质性良好的7日龄湖羊公羔（双羔）30只,随机分为2组,每组15只,每只为1个重复,对照组羔羊饲喂不含MOS的代乳粉,试验组羔羊饲喂含0.2 % MOS的代乳粉,试验期21d。羔羊28日龄时,两个试验组各随机选择8只羔羊屠宰,取出消化道,称量各胃室和肠段包含内容物的质量和净质量,量取各肠段长度,用以计算各部位的相对质量和内容物分布,以及各肠段的相对长度。多聚甲醛固定皱胃胃底腺区及十二指肠、空肠和回肠中段的组织样品,测定组织形态和小肠上皮细胞凋亡率。采集十二指肠、空肠和回肠的黏膜样品,测定紧密连接蛋白1 (claudin 1)、闭锁小带1（zonula occludens-1,ZO-1）和闭锁蛋白（occludin）的mRNA表达量。【结果】除空肠相对长度外（%全肠长度,P=0.040）,MOS对羔羊胃肠指数（%活体质量）、胃肠相对质量（%全胃质量、%全肠质量和%全胃肠质量）、肠道相对长度（%全肠长度）、内容物相对活体质量（%活体质量）、胃肠内容物相对总胃/肠内容物及总胃肠内容物相对质量（%总胃内容物、总肠内容物、总胃肠内容物）、小肠上皮细胞凋亡率和小肠黏膜claudin 1蛋白mRNA的表达量均没有产生显著影响（P＞0.05）,但MOS显著提高羔羊十二指肠绒毛高度和肌层厚度并显著降低绒毛宽度（P=0.033,P=0.047,P=0.015）,显著上调空肠ZO-1蛋白mRNA表达量（P=0.028）,此外,MOS有提高羔羊回肠绒毛高度、绒毛宽度和隐窝深度、皱胃肌层厚度及回肠occludin蛋白mRNA表达量的趋势（P=0.075,P=0.078,P=0.085,P=0.084,P=0.052）。【结论】MOS对7—28日龄湖羊羔羊胃肠道相对质量、长度和内容物分布基本无显著影响,但可改善十二指肠和回肠绒毛及肌层的组织形态,维持小肠屏障功能,有利于提高养分消化率。     

Substitution of chemical fertilizer by Chinese milk vetch improves the sustainability of yield and accumulation of soil organic carbon in a double-rice cropping system

The double-rice cropping system is a very important intensive cropping system for food security in China. There have been few studies of the sustainability of yield and accumulation of soil organic carbon(SOC) in the double-rice cropping system following a partial substitution of chemical fertilizer by Chinese milk vetch(Mv). We conducted a 10-year(2008–2017) field experiment in Nan County, South-Central China, to examine the double-rice productivity and SOC accumulation in a paddy soil in response to different fertilization levels and Mv application(22.5 Mg ha~(–1)). Fertilizer and Mv were applied both individually and in combination(sole chemical fertilizers, Mv plus 100, 80, 60, 40, and 0% of the recommended dose of chemical fertilizers, labeled as F100, MF100, MF80, MF60, MF40, and MF0, respectively). It was found that the grain yields of double-rice crop in treatments receiving Mv were reduced when the dose of chemical fertilizer was reduced, while the change in SOC stock displayed a double peak curve. The MF100 produced the highest double-rice yield and SOC stock, with the value higher by 13.5 and 26.8% than that in the F100. However, the grain yields increased in the MF80(by 8.4% compared to the F100), while the SOC stock only increased by 8.4%. Analogous to the change of grain yield, the sustainable yield index(SYI) of double rice were improved significantly in the MF100 and MF80 compared to the F100, while there was a slight increase in the MF60 and MF40. After a certain amount of Mv input(22.5 Mg ha~(–1)), the carbon sequestration rate was affected by the nutrient input due to the stimulation of microbial biomass. Compared with the MF0, the MF100 and MF40 resulted in a dramatically higher carbon sequestration rate(with the value higher by 71.6 and 70.1%),whereas the MF80 induced a lower carbon sequestration rate with the value lower by 70.1% compared to the MF0. Based on the above results we suggested that Mv could partially replace chemical fertilizers(e.g., 40–60%) to improve or maintain the productivity and sustainability of the double-rice cropping system in South-Central China.     

Performance,milk fatty acid composition and behaviour of high-yielding Holstein dairy cows given a limited grazing period

The effects of a limited grazing period on the performance, behaviour and milk composition of high-yielding dairy cows were examined. A total of 56 Holstein cows yielding 44.7 ± 0.42 kg/day were allocated to one of four treatments in one of two, 4-week periods. Treatments were as follows: control (C)—cows housed and offered TMR ad libitum; early grazing (EG)—cows grazed for 6 hr after morning milking then housed; delayed grazing (DG)—cows returned to housing for 1 hr after morning milking followed by grazing for 6 hr, then housed; restricted TMR (RT)—cows grazed for 6 hr after morning milking, then housed and fed TMR at 75% of ad libitum. Intake of TMR was highest in cows receiving C, intermediate in EG and DG, and lowest in RT at 26.9, 23.6, 24.7 and 20.3 kg DM/day respectively. Pasture intake was similar in cows receiving EG or DG, but was higher in RT at 2.4, 2.0 and 3.5 kg DM/day respectively. Milk yield was similar between cows receiving C, EG or DG, but lowest in RT at 45.7, 44.2, 44.9 and 41.7 kg/cow, respectively, while milk fat content of C18:3 n-3 was increased by grazing. Cows in C spent more than 55 min/day longer lying and had three additional lying bouts/day, while lying bouts were shorter than for cows receiving EG, RT or DG. It is concluded that high-yielding cows can be grazed for 6 hr/day with little impact on performance, provided TMR is available ad libitum when housed.

美国奶业新特点、新趋势及对中国的启示

美国奶业发展历史悠久,其生产端、消费端乃至流通贸易方面长期积累的丰富经验,对中国奶业振兴具有一定的参考价值。笔者对2000年以来美国奶业生产、价格、消费、贸易等方面所呈现的新特点进行分析,对奶业相关的支持政策及其变化趋势进行梳理。研究发现,近年来,美国奶牛场数量向北部和西部集中,500头以上规模化牧场成为主流,奶牛存栏增加;技术进步推动奶牛单产突破10 t,生鲜乳产量接近1亿t。基于分级定价的乳成分定价机制不断完善,近5年生鲜乳价格低位运行,2019年快速复苏。乳制品加工业向龙头企业集中,奶酪是主要加工产品。乳制品消费逐年增长,年人均消费量达292.90 kg,奶酪是主要增长点且增速加快。乳制品贸易波动增加,出口目的地集中在北美、东亚和东南亚地区,品类以奶粉、奶酪和乳清为主。奶业产业支持政策广泛涵盖生产、消费、贸易等各环节,各政策间功能互补、协调配套,形成了强大的政策合力与综合效能。美国奶业在产业组织、运行机制、政策配套等方面的经验与做法,对推动完善中国奶业利益联结机制、优化生鲜乳价格形成机制、完善奶业支持政策体系和培育乳制品消费习惯等方面具有重要启示。

【目的】全面评价陕西液态牛奶中黄曲霉毒素M_1(aflatoxin M_1,AFM_1)污染状况及其产生的健康风险。【方法】于2018年上半年在陕西全省范围内城市、县城及乡镇采集液态奶样本111份进行检测,结合中国居民营养与健康状况监测数据库中液态奶消费数据,对不同人群通过液态奶对AFM_1的摄入水平进行分析。采用联合国粮农组织/世界卫生组织食品添加剂联合专家委员会(JECFA)确立的AFM_1暴露引发肝癌风险公式和安全限值两种方法,分析描述相关健康风险。【结果】111份液态奶样本中95份检出AFM_1,但均未超过国家限量标准,平均含量为23.95 ng/kg。不同性别年龄组中,一般人群对AFM_1的平均摄入量为0.004～0.082 ng/(kg·d),肝癌风险为0.010～0.225例/(亿人·年),消费人群对AFM_1平均摄入量为0.041～0.272 ng/(kg·d),肝癌风险为0.113～0.745例/(亿人·年)。【结论】陕西液态牛奶中AFM_1污染引发的健康风险总体较低,但需对部分低年龄段(2～11岁)液态奶消费人群AFM_1膳食暴露引发的健康风险予以关注。     

激素对奶牛乳腺上皮细胞乳脂肪合成的调控作用

乳脂肪是高质量的天然脂肪，其可为人类提供营养和能量，在各种膳食脂肪和油类中，是最容易被消化吸收的。乳脂肪是在乳腺中由从头合成或外源摄取的脂肪酸与甘油酯化形成的一种脂类物质，其含量的高低关系着牛奶品质的优劣和乳制品的加工特性。在奶牛的泌乳周期中，乳腺泌乳功能受多种因素影响，其中内分泌腺分泌的多种激素对奶牛乳腺上皮细胞（BMECs）乳脂的合成具有积极的调控作用。综上所述，作者介绍了氢化可的松、催乳素、胰岛素和生长激素4种泌乳相关激素对BMECs乳脂肪合成的调控机理，即从乳脂合成适宜的激素添加量、激素对乳脂球形态的影响方面初步阐释其调控作用，并从乳脂合成的关键酶及转录因子、激素对乳脂合成相关基因表达量方面深入阐释其作用机理，旨在为研究泌乳相关激素对奶牛乳腺内乳脂肪合成的调控机理提供参考。     

基于双向电泳技术研究湖羊初乳和常乳乳蛋白质组差异

试验旨在分析绵羊初乳和常乳乳蛋白质组的差异，揭示绵羊不同泌乳阶段的乳蛋白质组特征。选用6只胎次相同、预产期相近的湖羊母羊，分别采集分娩后第1、3、7天的初乳和第14、28、56天的常乳，每个时间点采集6份奶样并等体积混合，离心弃去乳脂肪，采用双向电泳（2-DE）技术对初乳和常乳的脱脂乳蛋白进行比较分析。结果发现，初乳中乳蛋白含量较高，且随着泌乳期的延伸，乳蛋白含量降低。以第1天乳蛋白2-DE图谱为参照，第3天检测到38个差异蛋白点，其中有20个蛋白点仅存在于第1天图谱中，有1个蛋白点仅存在于第3天图谱中，其余17个蛋白点呈现表达量的差异；第7天检测到35个差异蛋白点，其中有19个蛋白点仅存在于第1天图谱中，有1个蛋白点仅存在于第7天图谱中，其余15个蛋白点呈现表达量的差异；第14天检测到34个差异蛋白点，其中有11个蛋白点仅存在于第1天图谱中，有1个蛋白点仅存在于第14天图谱中，其余22个蛋白点呈现表达量的差异；第28天检测到38个差异蛋白点，其中有28个蛋白点仅存在于第1天图谱中，有1个蛋白点仅存在于第28天图谱中，其余9个蛋白点呈现表达量的差异；第56天检测到36个差异蛋白点，其中有26个蛋白点仅存在于第1天图谱中，有1个蛋白点仅存在于第56天图谱中，其余9个蛋白点呈现表达量的差异。综上，共检测出44个差异表达的蛋白点，其中有8个蛋白点仅存在于第1天图谱中，而这些蛋白主要涉及免疫活性功能。
