Effects of Different Milk Samples on Sensitization in BALB/c Mice

In order to study the allergenicity of camel milk,cow milk and human milk,sixty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) group (positive control group),cow milk group,camel milk group,human milk group and blank group (negative control group). Each group of mice received 1 mg/g BW samples and 0.3 μg/g cholera toxin (CT) per week,while mice in control group were received PBS and CT. After six weeks of intragastric administration,some allergic symptoms,the serum specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) and immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) levels,plasma histamine levels and vascular permeability were detected. The results showed that the body weight of mice in camel milk,human milk and blank groups were normally increased,while that in β-lg and cow milk groups tended to slow down. The serum-specific IgE,IgG1 levels and histamine level in β-lg and cow milk groups were extremely significantly higher than blank group (P<0.01),the vascular permeability was increased,and the allergy symptoms were obvious. While the specific IgE and IgG1 levels of camel milk group were extremely significantly lower than cow milk group (P<0.01),but there were no significant difference with human milk group (P>0.05),and the allergy symptoms were mild. This study showed that the sensitization of camel milk was lower than cow milk,and similar to human milk.

Advances in the Research and Application of Artificial Insemination to Equids in China: 1935–2012

China was one of the first countries to use artificial insemination (AI) in equids, and it achieved international recognition for its widespread application of AI to commercial horse breeding. This article reviews the history of equine AI in China. The technique originated from the high demand for horses to be used in agriculture, transportation, and the military. Artificial insemination was identified as an ideal tool for Chinese horse breeding to improve the productivity of native horses, especially during 1950-1970. Presently, AI is still practiced commonly in China, and it includes the use of fresh semen and transported cooled semen. The use of frozen semen has also been resumed to broaden the range of elite Sporthorse stallions and to preserve threatened or endangered native breeds. Accurate prediction of the optimum time for insemination depended mainly on transrectal palpation of the mare's ovaries. In addition to controlled methods of insemination, factors like volume and number of spermatozoa in the inseminate and timing and frequency of insemination were optimized to accomplish high fertility rates in the field. Production of hinnies and mules for agricultural labor and donkeys for meat and hide gelatin stimulated a nationwide upsurge of research into the reproductive physiology of and AI technology in donkeys. In the future, there will be further increases in the use of traditional and modern AI techniques in the breeding of Chinese equids.

丁壮素的特点及其作用

丁酸是短链脂肪酸的一种,其抗菌抑菌作用已被广泛认知和接受。抗菌抑菌原理如图1。图1丁酸抗菌抑菌原理由于丁酸脂臭味重、闪点低和挥发性强的特点,工业归类上将其按危险品管理。常温下丁酸呈液态,饲料生产中操作不便,且由于易挥发、计量不好把控,生产上往往把丁酸转化为丁酸盐     

蜂箱大盖日光热源对蜂群繁殖及产蜜量影响的研究

油毡纸作为蜂箱大盖防雨层已被广泛应用于养蜂生产中，虽然解决了蜂箱防雨问题，但也在很大程度上降低了养蜂生产效率。本研究经过多年的蜂场实地测试，发现在夏季最高气温37℃天气里，10～14时，1组油毡纸大盖上面温度为60．5℃～63℃；2组油毡纸上遮草帘大盖上温度为34．7℃～37．5℃；3组木板大盖上温度为52℃～57℃。尽管各部位温度差异较大，但子脾间温度差异很小。l组蜂群的有效产卵量和群势、产蜜量均低于2、3组，饲料消耗量高于2、3组。由此表明油毡纸蜂箱大盖吸收日光热源对蜂群繁殖效率及产蜜量具有明显的影响。

青海省海南地区近30年≥0 ℃积温变化趋势分析

积温是作物与品种特性的重要指标之一,对积温农业气象重要指标的研究,对于指导农牧业生产具有十分重要的现实意义。本研究通过利用青海省海南藏族自治州共和、兴海、贵南、同德和贵德5县气象站的地面观测资料,对该地区近30年来≥0 ℃年积温的变化,主要农作物、牧草生育期的变化及其生育期≥0 ℃的积温变化做了分析,得出该地区大部分农作物及牧草的生育期有所缩短,开始期有所提前。由于近10年该地区升温明显,热量条件充足,各地≥0 ℃年积温有所增加,农作物及牧草发育期的积温增多,为该地区农作物及牧草的生长发育提供了充足的热量条件,对于该地区适时调整农牧业结构提供了依据。     

Protective influence of rosiglitazone against time‐dependent deterioration of boar spermatozoa preserved at 17°C

Spermatozoa are highly specialized cells, and energy metabolism plays an important role in modulating sperm viability and function. Rosiglitazone is an antidiabetic drug in the thiazolidinedione class that regulates metabolic flexibility and glucose uptake in various cell types, but its effects on boar sperm metabolism are unknown. In this study, we investigated the potential effect of rosiglitazone against time‐dependent deterioration of boar spermatozoa during liquid preservation at 17°C. Freshly ejaculated semen was diluted with Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS) containing different concentrations of rosiglitazone, and the motility, membrane and acrosome integrity of sperm were detected. Besides, we measured glucose uptake capacity, l ‐lactate production level, mitochondrial membrane potential, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) production of sperm after boar semen had been incubated with or without rosiglitazone, iodoacetate (glycolysis inhibitor) and rotenone (electron transport chain inhibitor) for 5 days. The addition of rosiglitazone significantly enhanced sperm quality and had a strong protective effect on the sperm membrane and acrosome integrity during storage. BTS containing 50 μM rosiglitazone maintained the total motility of liquid‐preserved sperm above 60% for 7 days. Rosiglitazone improved sperm quality by regulating energy metabolism manner of preserved sperm, protected the sperm mitochondrial membrane potential, enhanced sperm ATP production and in the meanwhile reduced mROS through enhancing glycolysis but not oxidative phosphorylation. The data suggested the practical feasibility of using rosiglitazone for improving boar spermatozoa quality during semen preservation.
