本试验对白萨福克羊(White Suffolk)和特克塞尔羊(Texel)的6项生理指标、10项生化指标按冬春季、夏季和秋季三个不同阶段进行了全面测定。白萨福克羊和特克塞尔羊的生理指标随季节变化而变化。白萨福克公、母羊夏季的体温和呼吸极显著高于冬春季、秋季的体温和呼吸,特克塞尔公、母羊夏季的体温和呼吸极显著高于冬春季的体温和呼吸(P<0.01);两个品种公、母羊各种类型的白细胞变化均在正常范围内。两个品种羊在秋季和冬春季葡萄糖含量都较高,略高于藏羊含量,是对寒冷适应性的表现;血液钙水平较高,表明对较高海拔的代谢适应性。     

谷氨酰胺对脂多糖应激仔猪生长性能及血清生化指标的影响

本试验旨在研究饲粮中添加谷氨酰胺(Gln)对断奶仔猪不同阶段生长性能的影响,以及其对脂多糖(LPS)诱导肠道损伤后断奶仔猪血清生化指标和生长性能的影响。选用24头28日龄健康的"杜×长×大"三元杂交断奶仔猪,随机分为3组,每组8个重复,每个重复1头猪。对照组和LPS组饲喂基础饲粮,Gln+LPS组饲喂添加了1%的外源性Gln的基础饲粮;在试验第22、25、28、30天,LPS组和Gln+LPS组腹腔注射100μg/kg BW LPS,对照组则注射相同剂量的生理盐水。试验期30 d。结果表明:1)LPS处理前(试验第1~21天),与对照组相比,Gln+LPS组显著提高了试验第1~7天断奶仔猪的平均日采食量(ADFI)和平均日增重(ADG)(P0.05),显著提高了试验第8~14天和第1~21天断奶仔猪的ADFI(P0.05)。2)LPS处理后(试验第22~30天),对照组断奶仔猪的ADFI、ADG、第30天体重均显著高于LPS组和Gln+LPS组(P0.05),Gln+LPS组断奶仔猪的ADFI、ADG、第30天体重均高于LPS组(P0.05)。3)LPS组断奶仔猪的小肠长度显著低于对照组和Gln+LPS组(P0.05),而对照组和Gln+LPS组之间无显著差异(P0.05)。4)与对照组相比,Gln+LPS组断奶仔猪的血清高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDLC)含量和碱性磷酸酶(ALP)活性显著降低(P0.05),而Gln+LPS组与LPS组之间无显著差异(P0.05);Gln+LPS组和LPS组断奶仔猪的血清免疫球蛋白M(Ig M)含量显著提高(P0.05)。由此可见,饲粮中添加1%的Gln能够显著提高仔猪断奶后第1~7天的生长性能,之后效果不明显。饲粮中添加1%的Gln能够调节应激仔猪的血清生化指标,改善其生长性能和小肠长度,从而缓解仔猪断奶应激。     

胡芦巴粉对肉仔鸡生长性能、肉品质、免疫器官指数及血清抗氧化和生化指标的影响

本试验旨在研究饲粮中添加不同水平胡芦巴粉对肉仔鸡生长性能、肉品质、免疫器官指数及血清抗氧化和生化指标的影响。试验选用1日龄爱拔益加肉仔鸡320只,随机分为4个组,每组8个重复,每个重复10只鸡。各组分别饲喂含0(对照)、3%、6%、9%胡芦巴粉的营养水平相同的全价饲粮,试验期42d。结果表明:1)1~21日龄,6%和9%胡芦巴粉组平均体重和平均日增重显著低于对照组(P0.05),9%胡芦巴粉组平均日采食量显著低于对照组(P0.05),3%胡芦巴粉组料重比显著低于对照组(P0.05)。22~42日龄和1~42日龄,饲粮胡芦巴粉水平对肉仔鸡各项生长性能指标均无显著影响(P0.05)。2)9%胡芦巴粉组胸肌滴水损失率和压力损失率显著低于对照组(P0.05)。饲粮胡芦巴粉水平对胸肌pH45min、pH24h、剪切力和蒸煮损失率均无显著影响(P0.05)。3)6%胡芦巴粉组21日龄脾脏指数显著高于对照组(P0.05)。饲粮胡芦巴粉水平对21日龄胸腺指数、法氏囊指数及42日龄胸腺指数、脾脏指数和法氏囊指数均无显著影响(P0.05)。4)9%胡芦巴粉组的21日龄血清总超氧化物歧化酶活性高于对照组(P0.05),且显著高于3%和6%胡芦巴粉组(P0.05);6%胡芦巴粉组的42日龄血清总抗氧化能力显著高于其他各组(P0.05)。饲粮胡芦巴粉水平对21日龄血清总抗氧化能力和丙二醛含量以及42日龄血清总超氧化物歧化酶活性和丙二醛含量均无显著影响(P0.05)。5)9%胡芦巴粉组的21日龄血清谷草转氨酶活性显著高于对照组(P0.05);3%胡芦巴粉组的42日龄血清谷草转氨酶活性显著高于对照组(P0.05)。饲粮胡芦巴粉水平对21和42日龄血清总蛋白、白蛋白、球蛋白、尿素氮含量和白球比及谷丙转氨酶活性无显著影响(P0.05)。由此可见,胡芦巴粉可作为一种蛋白质饲料原料应用于肉仔鸡生产,其具有提高肌肉系水力,促进免疫器官发育,提高抗氧化能力和增强机体蛋白质代谢的作用。胡芦巴粉在肉仔鸡饲粮中的适宜添加水平为:1~21日龄不超过3%,22~42日龄不超过6%。     

外源性H2S对氯胺酮全麻大鼠主要生理指标的影响

外源性H₂S在诸多方面对中枢神经系统具有保护性作用,本研究通过预试验确定了外源性H₂S的给药时间和剂量,将48只SD大鼠随机均分为4组,分别为对照组（CP组）、低剂量组（LP组,7 μmol/kg NaHS）、中剂量组（MP组,14 μmol/kg NaHS）、高剂量组（GP组,28 μmol/kg NaHS）。在盐酸氯胺酮麻醉前20 min,3个剂量组分别腹腔注射7、14、28 μmol/kg NaHS,观察外源性H₂S对大鼠体温、心率、呼吸频率、血氧饱和度及血压等生理指标的干预效果。试验结果表明,与对照组相比,3个剂量组体温和血氧饱和度浓度均显著升高（P<0.05）,心率和血压均显著降低（P<0.05）,但呼吸频率呈先减慢后加快趋势,且这些变化呈显著的剂量依赖性。     

Responses in carcass lean pH at 24 hours post-mortem in lines of Large White pigs selected for growth rate on a fixed ration over a set time

A restricted maximum likelihood analysis applied to an animal model showed no significant differences (P > 0.05) in pH value of the longissimus dorsi measured at 24 h post-mortem (pH24) between high and low lines of Large White pigs selected over 4 years for post-weaning growth rate on restricted feeding. Genetic and phenotypic correlations between pH24 and production and carcass traits were estimated using all performance testing records combined with the pH24 measurements (5.05–7.02) on slaughtered animals. The estimate of heritability for pH24 was moderate (0.29 ± 0.18). Genetic correlations between pH24 and production or carcass composition traits, except for ultrasonic backfat (UBF), were not significantly different from zero. UBF had a moderate, positive genetic correlation with pH24 (0.24 ± 0.33). These estimates of genetic correlations affirmed that selection for increased growth rate on restricted feeding is likely to result in limited changes in pH24 and pork quality since the selection does not put a high emphasis on reduced fatness.     

Effects of treating rice straw with urea or urea and calcium hydroxide upon intake, digestibility, rumen fermentation and milk yield of dairy cows

Three, multiparous Holstein crossbred dairy cows with initial body weight of 385 ± 19 kg were randomly allocated to 3 treatments of rice straw (T1 = untreated rice straw; T2 = 5.5% urea-treated rice straw (5 g urea in 100 ml water to 100 g air-dry (91% DM) straw); T3 = 2.2% urea + 2.2% calcium hydroxide treated rice straw (2.0 g urea and 2.0 g Ca(OH)₂ in 100 ml to 100 g air-dry (91% DM) straw) according to a 3 × 3 Latin square design. Each period lasted for 21 days in which feed, feces and rumen fluid were collected during the last 7 days for chemical analyses. The findings revealed significant improvements in dry matter intake and digestibility by using 5.5% urea-treated rice straw and 2.2% urea + 2.2% calcium hydroxide treated rice straw. Ruminal pH and NH₃-N were found higher (P < 0.05) as compared with urea-treated rice straw fed group, while blood urea nitrogen and milk urea nitrogen were in normal ranges. Volatile fatty acid concentrations especially those of acetic acid were decreased (P < 0.05) and those of propionic acid were increased (P < 0.05), thus acetic acid:propionic acid was subsequently lowered (P < 0.05) in cows fed with 5.5% urea-treated rice straw and 2.2% urea + 2.2% calcium hydroxide treated rice straw, respectively. Moreover, ruminal viable and cellulolytic bacterial counts were enhanced by urea and calcium hydroxide treatments. Milk protein and fat concentrations were additionally increased by respective treatments while 3.5% fat-corrected milk was highest; ranking from 2.2% urea + 2.2% calcium hydroxide treated rice straw, 5.5% urea-treated rice straw and urea-treated rice straw fed groups. Based on this study, implications could be made that using 2.2% urea + 2.2% calcium hydroxide treated rice straw for straw treatment could be an alternative treatment to 5.5% urea treatment with regards to its effectiveness and treatment cost for lactating dairy cows.     

甜菜碱对奶牛采食量、泌乳性能和血液指标的影响

选用20头体重(597±11.8)kg、泌乳天数(88±4.5)d、日产奶(26.3±0.5)kg的经产奶牛,随机分为4组,采用4×4拉丁方设计,研究甜菜碱(0、50、100和150g/d)对泌乳早期奶牛采食量、泌乳性能和血液指标的影响。结果表明:日粮添加甜菜碱对奶牛的采食量、乳蛋白率、乳糖率和血糖浓度无显著影响,100g/d组和150g/d组鲜奶产量显著高于对照组和50g/d组(P<0.05);100g/d组和150g/d组4%乳脂校正乳、能量校正乳和乳脂产量显著高于对照组(P<0.05);100g/d组乳脂率显著高于对照组(P<0.05);100g/d组和150g/d组血浆游离脂肪酸和β-羟丁酸浓度显著低于对照组(P<0.05)。根据以上结果推断,甜菜碱的适宜添加水平为100g/d。     

钙对苜蓿幼苗抗寒性及相关生理指标影响的研究

先用50mmol/L CaCl2浸泡图牧吉苜蓿，公农一号苜蓿种子，蒸馏水处理作对照，之后将其幼苗放在低温下胁迫。结果表明：Ca^2 不但能提高图牧吉苜蓉幼苗的抗寒性，而且，也能提高公农一号苜蓿幼苗的抗寒性，同时，图牧吉苜蓿，公农一号苜蓿的超氧化物歧化酶，过氧化物酶，过氧化氢酶等酶活性及脯氨酸与抗坏血酸含量也得到提高。由此推测，Ca^2 提高图牧吉苜蓿，公农一号苜蓿幼苗的抗寒性可能与Ca^2 提高其超氧化物歧化酶，过氧化物酶，过氧化氢酶等酶活性及脯氨酸与抗坏血酸含量有关。
