Effect of grape pomace on fermentation quality and aerobic stability of sweet sorghum silage

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of grape pomace (GP) with different adding levels (0%, 5%, 10% and 15%, fresh matter basis), alone (GP‐LAB) or in combine with an inoculant LAB (GP+LAB), on the fermentation quality and aerobic stability of sweet sorghum silage. After 90 days of ensiling in vacuumized mini‐silos, silages were subject to a 7‐day aerobic stability test, in which chemical, microbial and polyphenol composition were measured. In the GP‐LAB group, adding GP decreased (P < 0.05) concentrations of water‐soluble carbohydrate (WSC) and butyric acid in silage. In the GP+LAB group, adding GP increased (P < 0.05) concentrations of lactic acid, WSC and crude protein, decreased (P < 0.05) final pH value, NH₃‐N ratio and butyric acid concentration in silage. Polyphenol level was reduced (P < 0.05) after silage fermentation. During aerobic exposure, the fungi count, pH value and silage temperature increased (P < 0.05), the levels of lactic acid, acetic acid and polyphenols (quercetin 3‐O‐glucoside and quercetin 3‐O‐glucuronid) decreased (P < 0.05) in silage. GP+LAB treated silage had a lag phase for aerobic spoilage. When the fermentation products, microbial counts, chemical and polyphenol composition were considered, the use of 10% GP+LAB at ensiling could provide a valuable source for improved fermentation quality and aerobic stability of sweet sorghum silage.

Fatal infection in human flora-associated piglets caused by the opportunistic pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae from an apparently healthy human donor

Seventeen out of 24 human flora-associated (HFA) piglets died after oral administration of whole fecal flora from an apparently healthy human donor. The bacteria isolated from the organs of the infected piglets were identified as Klebsiella pneumoniae by bacteriological and biochemical tests and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The identical K. pneumoniae strain was also isolated from the donor's fecal flora. All three neonatal piglets inoculated with K. pneumoniae from the donor's fecal flora developed severe diarrhea, with 2 eventually dying. This strongly suggests that the opportunistic pathogen K. pneumoniae from the human donor caused the fatal infection in the HFA piglets. The results underscore the importance of safety evaluation of the human donor's fecal flora for HFA piglet development.

为了调查湖区血吸虫病流行环境与传染源构比,找出主要传染源、传播途径和场所,进一步揭示流行规律,为制定血防对策提供依据.调查范围为鄱阳县及两乡四村.结果,草洲钉螺占99.4%,90%以上牛上洲放牧,人粪流放率31%,其中渔民78%,牛粪流放率78%,其中64%直接污染草洲水体,野粪构比中牛占92.8%,传播粪量牛占98.85%,人占0.96%,其中渔民占0.12%.结论认为湖区疫情重,主要传染源是牛,主要感染途径是接触疫水,疫水形成的主因是牛上洲放牧,主要感染场所是草洲及周边水体.增加血防投入,稳定队伍,实施查治病和＂四个突破＂为主体的防治策略,控制畜源性传染源,净化环境与草洲,切断传播途径,才能有效控制血吸虫病.     

Leucine stimulates mammalian target of rapamycin signaling in C2C12 myoblasts in part through inhibition of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase

Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling is one of the main signaling pathways controlling protein synthesis. Leucine treatment upregulates mTOR signaling, which enhances protein synthesis; however, the mechanisms are not well understood. Herein, treatment of C2C12 myoblast cells with leucine enhanced the phosphorylation of mTOR and ribosomal protein S6 kinase. Leucine treatment also decreased the adenosine monophosphate/ATP ratio in myoblasts by 36.4 +/- 9.1% (P < 0.05) and reduced the phosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) alpha subunit at Thr172 (28.6 +/- 4.9% reduction, P < 0.05) and inhibited AMPK activity (43.6 +/- 3.5% reduction, P < 0.05). In addition, leucine increased the phosphorylation of mTOR at Ser2448 by 63.5 +/- 10.0% (P < 0.05) and protein synthesis by 30.6 +/- 6.1% (P < 0.05). Applying 5-aminoimidazole-4-carbox-amide 1-beta-d-ribonucleoside, an activator of AMPK, abolished the stimulation of mTOR signaling by leucine, showing that AMPK negatively controls mTOR signaling. To further show the role of AMPK in mTOR signaling, myoblasts expressing a dominant negative AMPKalpha subunit were employed. Negative myoblasts had very low AMPK activity. The activation of mTOR induced by leucine in these cells was abated, showing that AMPK contributed to mTOR activation. In conclusion, leucine stimulates mTOR signaling in part through AMPK inhibition. This study implicates AMPK as an important target for nutritional management to enhance mTOR signaling and protein synthesis in muscle cells, thereby increasing muscle growth.     

皮下包埋两性霉素B对兔真菌性皮肤病治疗效果研究

兔真菌性皮肤病是一类传染性极强的人畜共患接触性皮肤病。试验选取体重相近,已感染真菌性皮肤病的吉戎兔15只,分为3组,每组5只,试验组Ⅰ为对照组,注射生理盐水,组Ⅱ和组Ⅲ皮下分别包埋5mg和10mg的两性霉素颗粒剂。给药前和给药后第10天、第20天和第30天分别称重,并观察测定兔皮毛生长及秃斑恢复情况。结果表明,试验组兔增重均高于对照组,差异显著(P<0.05),试验末期组II和组Ⅲ秃斑恢复分别达95%和90%。因此,采用皮下包埋的给药方式有效地延长了两性霉素B的药效时间,可有效治愈兔真菌性皮肤病。

马病毒性动脉炎病毒中和试验的建立以及与ELISA方法的比较研究

参照世界动物卫生组织(OIE)《陆生动物诊断与疫苗手册》,建立了马病毒性动脉炎病毒中和试验,并采用马病毒性动脉炎病毒中和试验(Virus Neutralization Test,VNT)和酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)两种方法,对广东省部分地区马场共182匹马血清和7份标准阴阳性血清进行马病毒性动脉炎抗体的检测,并对两种方法进行比较分析,结果两种方法的阳性符合率和阴性符合率分别为43.48%和96.34%,总符合率为93.12%;以我们建立的VNT作为马病毒性动脉炎抗体检测的"金标准",试验中所用的ELISA方法的敏感性和特异性分别为71.43%和93.96%。因此,我们认为在马病毒性动脉炎抗体检测中,ELISA的敏感性以及与VNT的阳性符合率较低,不适合作为VNT的替代方法。     

放牧奶牛的牛奶脂肪酸营养价值分析

随机采集了放牧与拴系条件下,上海某两个牧场一天的各自混合奶缸样,进行牛奶常规成分与牛奶脂肪酸组成的测定。结果显示,放牧牛群的奶样常规成份均高于拴系式。两个牧场奶样饱和脂肪酸总含量差异不显著,但是放牧牛群奶样ω3、ω6、ω3:ω6、多不饱和脂肪酸以及CLA(c9,t11)含量均高于拴系牛群。
