Experimental studies with foot-and-mouth disease virus type Asia-1, responsible for the 2005 epidemic in China

This study was carried out to investigate the biological characteristics of the foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) virus strain Asia-1 China/2005, which is responsible for the 2005 epidemic in China. The result showed that this strain is not host restricted, and could not only cause FMD in cattle and sheep but also in pigs by either inoculation or direct contact.     

Expression of nerve growth factor and its receptors trkA and p75 and inhibin alpha-subunit in the ovarian interstitial cells of lactating golden hamsters

Characteristic daily increases in the plasma levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) are present every afternoon during lactation in golden hamsters. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the diurnal rhythm of increases in LH on expression of nerve growth factor (NGF), its receptors trkA and p75 and inhibin alpha-subunit in the ovarian interstitial cells of lactating golden hamsters. Both lactating and non-lactating groups of postpartum golden hamsters were used in this study. The expression of NGF, its receptors trkA and p75 and inhibin alpha-subunit were determined by immunohistochemistry. Positive staining of NGF, trkA and p75 was found in the interstitial cells of the lactating group, and no immunoreactivity for NGF, trkA or p75 was observed in the ovarian interstitial cells of the non-lactating group. In addition, immunostaining of inhibin alpha-subunit was also observed in the interstitial cells of the lactating group but not in those of the non-lactating group. Immunostaining of the inhibin/activin beta(A)- and beta(B)-subunits was observed in the granulosa cells of antral follicles, but not in the interstitial cells of the lactating and non-lactating animals. These results suggest that the diurnal rhythm increases in LH can induce expression of NGF, trkA, p75 and inhibin alpha-subunit in the ovarian interstitial cells of lactating golden hamsters and that NGF, its receptors trkA and p75 and inhibin alpha-subunit may have the capacity for autocrine or paracrine modulation of interstitial cell differentiation in golden hamsters.     

添加三聚氰胺对高粗料日粮短期人工瘤胃发酵理化指标的影响

为研究三聚氰胺对瘤胃微生物发酵的影响,试验采集西门塔尔×鲁西黄牛瘤胃液,以高比例粗饲料为底物,采用短期人工瘤胃发酵产气装置,分析评价了不同剂量三聚氰胺(0、6、18、54、162、486 mg/kg)对氨态氮、氨基酸态氮、干物质产气量、挥发性脂肪酸、气体组分的影响。结果表明:三聚氰胺可减少高粗料日粮瘤胃发酵总挥发性脂肪酸的产生,并且有提高乙酸与丙酸比值的趋势(P>0.05)。高浓度的三聚氰胺(486 mg/kg)能显著提高氨态氮的浓度(P<0.05)。三聚氰胺的添加对干物质产气量影响不大,但可使甲烷产量提高8.0%～41.7%。综上所述,以高粗饲料日粮为发酵底物时,三聚氰胺添加对瘤胃的发酵并没有产生显著不利影响,但可提高甲烷产生量,从而降低饲料能量的转化效率。     

不同处理对西藏牦牛超数排卵的影响研究

本研究选用了埋植CIDR栓法、埋植PRID栓法、PG法以及PMSG+PG法四套方案对西藏41头母牦牛进行了超数排卵试验。试验结果:埋植CIDR法得到的平均卵母细胞数为7.4枚/头,埋植PRID法得到的平均卵母细胞数为6.5枚/头,PG法得到的平均卵母细胞数为4枚/头,PMSG+PG法得到的平均卵母细胞数为4.8枚/头,各组之间差异极显著(P<0.01);而经过卵母细胞成熟培养之后,埋植CIDR法得到的平均可用卵母细胞数为6.2枚/头,埋植PRID法得到的平均可用卵母细胞数也为6.2枚/头,PG法得到的平均可用卵母细胞数为4枚/头,PMSG+PG法得到的平均可用卵母细胞数为4.6枚/头,CIDR+FSH法与PRID+FSH法两组、两次PG法与PMSG+PG法两组差异不显著(P>0.05),但是CIDR+FSH法和PRID+FSH法组与两次PG法和PMSG+PG法组之间差异都极显著(P<0.01);用CIDR法和PRID法进行西藏牦牛超排效果较好,并可获得较多的可用卵母细胞。     

发酵棉粕对肉鸡生长性能、血清生化指标及免疫功能的影响

试验旨在研究发酵棉粕(FCM)替代豆粕(SBM)对AA肉仔鸡生长性能、血清生化及免疫功能的影响,并确定发酵棉粕在AA肉鸡日粮中的最适添加量。试验选择480羽1日龄AA肉鸡(44.40±1.11)g,随机分成4组,每组6个重复,以玉米豆粕基础日粮为对照组,分别用5%、10%和15%的发酵棉粕替代豆粕。结果表明:与对照组相比,添加发酵棉粕对肉鸡平均日增重(ADG)、采食量(ADFI)和饲料增重比(F/G)无显著影响;21日龄时,添加5%FCM显著提高了肉鸡的血液IgG和IgM含量及法氏囊指数(P<0.05),添加15%FCM显著降低了血清中尿素氮(UN)含量(P<0.05),此外,3个FCM处理均能提高胸腺指数(P<0.05),但对脾脏指数无影响;42日龄时,5%和10%FCM组显著降低了血清中的UN含量(P<0.05),15%FCM还提高了胸腺和法氏囊指数(P<0.05)。试验通过主成分分析,在试验范围内建立了评价FCM综合效果的参数Z,并得到1~21日龄和22~42日龄阶段,FCM的适宜添加量分别为5%和15%。     

云南德宏水牛乳基本组分的研究

本实验采用乳品分析仪对云南德宏奶水牛与荷斯坦牛乳中乳糖、乳脂、乳蛋白、总固形物、非脂固形物等含量进行测定。同时采用SDS-PAGE对乳蛋白各组分进行分离,并利用凝胶成像系统进行扫描定量。结果表明,德宏奶水牛乳中乳脂、乳糖、乳蛋白、总固形物、非脂固形物含量都极显著高于荷斯坦牛乳(P0.01)。酪蛋白百分含量在两个品种乳蛋白中占优势。德宏奶水牛乳蛋白中α-乳白蛋白含量显著高于荷斯坦牛乳(P0.05),而β-乳球蛋白含量显著低于荷斯坦牛乳(P0.05),血清白蛋白和酪蛋白则差异不显著(P0.05)。     

孵化场接种马立克氏病疫苗的新方法

随着禽病发生的日益复杂化,孵化场接种马立克氏病疫苗面临很多挑战,大多数从业者选用1日龄接种抗生素来预防雏鸡前期细菌性疾病,于是接种马立克氏病疫苗和接种抗生素使用同一把注射器,加之高温蒸煮的损耗,导致手动注射器在接种剂量准确度等诸多方面对家禽生产者造成很大的风险,所以由于器具的使用问题而导致在田间发生马立克氏疾病的可能性增加,严重困扰着行业内的从业者.
