Effects of dietary supplementation of emulsifier and carbohydrase on the growth performance,serum cholesterol and breast meat fatty acids profile of broiler chickens

A total of 540 2‐day‐old male Ross 308 broilers were used in a 35‐day experiment and were randomly divided into five treatments: (i) NC (low energy); (ii) PC (high energy diet); (iii) P1 (NC + 0.1% carbohydrases); (iv) P2 (NC + 0.05% emulsifier); and (v) P3 (NC + 0.1% carbohydrases + 0.05% emulsifier). From days 0 to 21, body weight gain in PC and P3 treatments increased (P < 0.05) compared with NC treatment. The chicks fed PC, P1, P2 and P3 improved (P < 0.05) feed conversion ratio compared with the NC treatment throughout the whole experiment. Abdominal fat weight was heavier (P < 0.05) in PC, P2 and P3 treatments than in NC and P1 treatments. On day 35, serum total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration were higher (P < 0.05) and high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol was lower (P < 0.05) in NC and P2 treatments than in PC, P1 and P3 treatments. The concentration of oleic acid, linoleic acid and total unsaturated fatty acids were highest (P < 0.05) in PC than in the other treatments. In conclusion, the results indicate that low energy density diet had lower growth performance, while the inclusion of emulsifier and carbohydrases in low energy diets can partially improve growth performance.     

Improved development of somatic cell cloned bovine embryos by a mammary gland epithelia cells in vitro model

Previous studies have established a bovine mammary gland epithelia cells in vitro model by the adenovirus-mediated telomerase (hTERT-bMGEs). The present study was conducted to confirm whether hTERT-bMGEs were effective target cells to improve the efficiency of transgenic expression and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). To accomplish this, a mammary-specific vector encoding human lysozyme and green fluorescent protein was used to verify the transgenic efficiency of hTERT-bMGEs, and untreated bovine mammary gland epithelial cells (bMGEs) were used as a control group. The results showed that the hTERT-bMGEs group had much higher transgenic efficiency and protein expression than the bMGEs group. Furthermore, the nontransgenic and transgenic hTERT-bMGEs were used as donor cells to evaluate the efficiency of SCNT. There were no significant differences in rates of cleavage or blastocysts or hatched blastocysts of cloned embryos from nontransgenic hTERT-bMGEs at passage 18 and 28 groups (82.8% vs. 81.9%, 28.6% vs. 24.8%, 58.6% vs. 55.3%, respectively) and the transgenic group (80.8%, 26.5% and 53.4%); however, they were significantly higher than the bMGEs group (71.2%, 12.8% and 14.8%), (p < 0.05). We confirmed that hTERT-bMGEs could serve as effective target cells for improving development of somatic cell cloned cattle embryos.     

麦草畏、水杨酸对西洋参成熟种胚体细胞胚发生的影响

以西洋参成熟种胚为试材,以不加激素和添加0.5mg/L 2,4-D的MS培养基为对照,研究了不同浓度(0.05~2.00mg/L)麦草畏、水杨酸对西洋参体胚发生的影响。结果表明:未添加激素的空白培养基没有愈伤和体胚发生;在附加2,4-D的培养基中愈伤和体胚发生率为100%;5个浓度的麦草畏和水杨酸均能诱导出体胚,其中1.00mg/L麦草畏的效果最佳,体胚发生率为56.60%,水杨酸处理下体胚发生率最高为7.50%;在各种浓度的水杨酸中种胚生长量比对照小且褐化严重。说明麦草畏、水杨酸均可诱导西洋参成熟种胚体细胞胚发生,诱导能力2,4-D麦草畏水杨酸;水杨酸对种胚生长有抑制作用。     

辽东地区立地条件对林下种植大叶芹类胡萝卜素含量的影响

在充分调查辽东地区大叶芹生长环境的基础上,以大叶芹为试材,研究了不同立地条件和环境因子对大叶芹生长的影响,以期筛选出可获得高品质大叶芹的栽植模式。结果表明:林型、坡向、坡位和坡度均对大叶芹的类胡萝卜素含量影响极显著;林下大叶芹类胡萝卜素含量明显高于全光坡耕地生长的大叶芹类胡萝卜素含量;样地处在人工落叶松林下、半阳坡、坡度为15°~20°的上坡时,其大叶芹中类胡萝卜素的含量最高。

A peptide of foot-and-mouth disease virus serotype Asia1 generating a neutralizing antibody response, and an immunostimulatory peptide

The epitopes of the capsid of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) play important roles in the construction of highly immunogenic subunit vaccines. However few epitopes have been found for FMDV serotype Asia1. In this study we screened for epitopes of the VP1 and VP2 proteins of FMDV serotype Asia1 isolate, YNBS/58. Fragments consisting of amino acids 133-163 of VP1 and amino acids 1-33 of VP2 contained epitopes, and both induced lymphoproliferation in guinea pigs. Only the VP1 fragment induced neutralizing antibodies but the VP2 peptide dramatically increased the neutralizing antibody response induced by the VP1 peptide.
