Experimental studies on the impact of an increased dose of anionic salts on the metabolism of dairy cows

Summary

This study was initiated to investigate the influence of a daily dose of anionic salts (AS) above the valid upper limit at present on metabolism of dairy cows. Eleven non‐pregnant and non‐lactating Holstein‐Friesian crossbred cows with a permanent rumen cannula were used in a study with a controlled feeding design. The initial daily dose was 2500 meq/day, which resulted in a Dietary Cation Anion Difference (DCAD) of ‐211 meq/kg dry matter. Every seven days, the daily dose was raised by 500 meq. If a cow stopped eating, the application of AS was stopped and these cows were monitored over the next seven days. On day 30 another batch of hay, having the same DCAD but higher concentrations of minerals and energy, was fed. Blood and urine samples were taken to monitor acid‐base balance and calcium concentrations. Acid‐base balance was strongly influenced by AS. Blood pH dropped steadily and reached values around 7.23. Urine pH dropped quickly below 6 and remained at that level regardless of the increased dosage of AS. Net acid base excretion (NABE) fell continuously with the increase of the dosage of AS and reached values below ‐200 mmol/l. Calcium concentrations in the serum were nearly stable, but those in urine increased sharply and remained on an elevated level with increasing doses of AS. A few days before the individual cow's refusal of feed intake, calcium excretion in urine decreased. The majority of cows stopped eating while consuming a diet containing 3500 to 4000 meq AS except two animals who consumed up to 6000 meq/day AS but they received the better hay in the second half of the treatment period. In this time pH in blood increased slowly. NABE remained stable on a low level at ‐100 mmol/l. The results showed that with an increasing amount of AS fed the risk of clinical acidosis increased. The decreasing urine concentrations of calcium indicate a breakdown of the compensation capability of the single cow. Besides the dose of AS fed, the quality of the feed stuff might be another factor concerning the tolerance of cows against AS.

稳定高效表达猪CD163的Marc-145细胞系的构建与鉴定

试验旨在构建一株高效表达猪CD163(pCD163)的Marc-145细胞系,为猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus,PRRSV)的临床分离和疫苗生产奠定基础。根据GenBank中序列设计引物从猪肺泡巨噬细胞(PAM)中扩增pCD163基因,将其插入真核表达载体pCI-neo构建真核表达质粒pCI-pCD163,将该重组质粒转染Marc-145细胞,通过G418筛选、单克隆化并扩大培养筛选获得表达pCD163的Marc-145细胞系,IFA、Western blotting鉴定其表达情况。IFA结果显示,构建的pCD163-Marc细胞系中荧光明显亮于普通Marc-145细胞;Western blotting结果显示,pCD163-Marc细胞系中CD163蛋白表达量约为对照Marc-145细胞中CD163蛋白表达量的8.7倍。且该细胞系可稳定传至20代,各代次之间表达量无差异。证明高效表达猪CD163的Marc-145细胞系构建成功。     

广西动物防疫物资信息管理系统的构建与应用

为实现广西动物防疫物资的信息化管理,适时掌握广西动物防疫物资的流转状况,广西壮族自治区动物疫病预防控制中心开发了“广西壮族自治区动物防疫物资信息管理系统”。该系统为B/S架构,采用JSP技术和MySQL数据库平台。该系统建立后,广西各级动物疫病预防控制机构均可通过互联网登录,及时存储和统计动物防疫物资信息数据,全程监控和实时了解物资流转情况。该系统为广西动物防疫物资的规范化管理提供了重要的技术支持,也为全区重大动物疫病防控提供了坚强的后勤保障。
