Dose and release pattern of anabolic implants affects growth of finishing beef steers across days on feed

Four experiments evaluated the effect of implant dose and release pattern on performance and carcass traits of crossbred beef steers. In Exp. 1, steers (4 to 7 pens/treatment; initial BW = 315 kg) were fed an average of 174 d. Treatments were 1) no implant (NI); 2) Revalor-S [120 mg of trenbolone acetate (TBA) and 24 mg of estradiol 17β (E(2)); REV-S]; 3) Revalor-IS followed by REV-S (cumulatively 200 mg of TBA and 40 mg of E(2); reimplanted at 68 to 74 d; REV-IS/S); and 4) Revalor-XS (200 mg of TBA and 40 mg of E(2); REV-X). Carcass-adjusted final BW was greater (P < 0.05) for REV-X and REV-IS/S than for REV-S (610, 609, and 598 kg, respectively). Daily DMI did not differ (P > 0.10) among the 3 implants, but carcass-adjusted G:F was greater (P < 0.05) for REV-X and REV-IS/S than for REV-S (0.197 and 0.195 vs. 0.188). Both HCW and LM area were greater (P < 0.05) for REV-X and REV-IS/S than for REV-S. Marbling scores were greatest (P < 0.05) for REV-S and least (P < 0.05) for REV-IS/S; REV-X was intermediate to NI and REV-IS/S. In Exp. 2, steers (10 pens/treatment; initial BW = 391 kg) were fed 131 d, with treatments of REV-S, REV-IS/S (reimplanted at 44 to 47 d), and REV-X. Carcass-adjusted final BW (598 kg), ADG (1.6 kg), DMI (9.4 kg), G:F (0.17), and HCW did not differ (P > 0.10) among treatments. The percentage of Choice was less (P < 0.05) and percentage of Select greater (P < 0.05) for REV-IS/S than for REV-S and REV-X. In Exp. 3, steers (10 pens/treatment; initial BW = 277 kg) were fed 197 d and received either REV-IS/S (reimplanted at 90 to 103 d) or REV-X. Carcass-adjusted final BW (625 vs. 633 kg) and ADG (1.81 vs. 1.76 kg) were greater (P < 0.05) for REV-X-implanted steers. Daily DMI did not differ, but G:F tended (P < 0.10) to be increased and HCW was greater (P < 0.05) for REV-X than for REV-IS/S. In Exp. 4, steers (8 pens/treatment; initial BW = 238 kg) were fed 243 d and received either REV-IS/S (reimplanted at 68 to 71 d) or REV-X. Carcass-adjusted final BW (612 kg), ADG (1.54 kg), DMI (7.55), and G:F (0.21) did not differ (P > 0.10) for REV-IS/S and REV-X-implanted steers. Carcass traits did not differ among implants, but the percentage of Choice carcasses was greater (P < 0.05) and percentage of Select was less (P < 0.05) for REV-X than for REV-IS/S. These data indicate that when TBA/E(2) dose is equal, the altered release rate of REV-X can improve performance and quality grade, but these effects depend on duration of the feeding period and timing of initial and terminal implants.     

生茸期梅花鹿蛋氨酸螯合铜需要量的研究

为探讨生茸期梅花鹿日粮中铜的最适宜添加范围,将20只2岁雄性梅花鹿随机分成A、B、C、D共4组,每组5只。A组饲喂不添加铜的全价颗粒料,B、C、D组在全价颗粒料的基础上分别添加15、40、80 mg/kg蛋氨酸螯合铜。结果:梅花鹿生茸期日粮加铜,改善了营养物质消化率,除干物质外,对其他营养物质消化率影响均达到显著或极显著水平(P<0.05或P<0.01),变化趋势40 mg/kg时发生改变;梅花鹿生茸期日粮中添加铜对血液生化指标有影响,其中对血清铜蓝蛋白活性影响最为显著(P<0.05),当日粮铜添加量为40 mg/kg时,其活性达到最大值;梅花鹿日粮加铜,对血清及毛中铜含量影响显著(P<0.05);梅花鹿鹿茸产量随日粮加铜量的增加呈现先上升后下降的趋势,在日粮铜添加量为40 mg/kg时,茸产量达到最大值;梅花鹿鹿茸氨基酸含量随日粮加铜量的增加而增加,鹿茸含铜量随铜水平的增加呈现先上升后下降状态。综合各项指标,梅花鹿生茸期日粮铜的适宜添加量为40 mg/kg。     

Detection and characterization of bovine-like coronaviruses from four species of zoo ruminants

Five coronaviruses (CoVs) were detected in diarrheal feces from four zoo ruminant species: one wisent (Bison bonasus), two Himalayan tahr (Hemitragus jemlahicus), one sitatunga (Tragelaphus spekii), and one nyala (Tragelaphus angasii). We sequenced and analyzed the spike (S) and hemagglutinin/esterase (HE) genes of these viruses and compared the nucleotide (nt) and deduced amino acid (aa) sequences with those of other bovine CoV (BcoV) strains. Comparison of the entire deduced aa sequences of the S and HE glycoproteins revealed no specific differences that would account for discrimination between bovine-like CoV strains from zoo ruminants and BcoVs strains. In addition, the 99.9% aa identity among the five CoV strains revealed that the ruminants were infected by the same strain. Phylogenetically, bovine-like CoVs belong to group 2a CoVs, which are related most closely to the BcoV strains recently isolated in Korea. These data suggest that cattle are potential reservoirs for CoVs that are capable of infecting zoo ruminants.     

乙醇-磷酸预处理对稻草酶解糖化的影响

为了提高制生物质酒精时稻草酶解糖化率,该文采用常温常压乙醇-磷酸预处理稻草。研究了预处理温度、乙醇体积分数、预处理时间对稻草糖化率的影响以及最优条件下的回用乙醇-磷酸预处理稻草糖化效果。结果表明,在50℃、乙醇体积分数50%、处理时间60?min条件下,稻草酶解糖化率从10.03%提高到57.75%。回用乙醇-磷酸预处理后稻草糖化率达到56.89%,与乙醇-磷酸预处理后糖化率相接紧,可减少蒸馏回收乙醇次数,降低能量消耗,节省运行费用。对比预处理前后稻草物理和化学性质的变化表明,乙醇-磷酸预处理使稻草的晶状结构遭到破坏、孔隙度增加、比表面增大,易于被微生物或酶酶解。乙醇-磷酸预处理后的过滤液容易通过蒸馏、离心、过滤等方式分离得出乙醇、木质素、磷酸等有用原料。该研究提供了一种温和条件下可运用于循环生产的稻草预处理方法。

Removal of Phosphate from Aqueous Solution by Functionalized Mesoporous Materials

In the present study, the applications of mesoporous materials based on silica, namely post-synthesized, one-pot synthesized, and pure MCM-41, were investigated for the removal of phosphate from aqueous solution. The mesostructures were confirmed by X-ray diffraction, Brunauer?CEmmett?CTeller, Fourier transform spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The absorptions of phosphate by the mesoporous adsorbents were examined, with different adsorption models used to describe the equilibrium and kinetic data. The maximum adsorption capacities of the mesostructure adsorbents were found to be 45.162, 40.806, and 31.123 mg g^?C1 for the post-synthesized, one-pot synthesized, and pure MCM-41, respectively. The kinetic data showed that the adsorptions of phosphate onto the post-synthesized and pure MCM-41 followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic model, whereas the one-pot synthesized adsorbent was described by the pseudo-second-order model.

根据房山区的基础数据,结合SWAT模型自带的数据库,建立研究区的属性数据库,构建房山区SWAT模型。运用SWAT模型对2020年及2030年在不同管理措施下的情景方案进行模拟,结果显示：在设定的8种情景方案中,考虑节水灌溉措施下的农业灌溉定额管理,采用现状灌溉定额;调整农业种植结构适当减少耗水量比较大的旱作粮食、露天菜田,增加耗水量比较小的林地、设施农业、干鲜果等使种植结构优化;逐步减少地下水超采这3种因素下模拟的蒸腾蒸发值（ET）与目标ET值最接近。即在此方案设定的水资源规划管理模式下,可遏制房山区水资源的过量损耗,终止地下水的过度开采,最终实现流域的可持续发展。该研究可为房山区水资源管理提供重要的依据。
