Comparative effect of advanced soy products or corn protein concentrate with porcine meal on growth,body composition,and distal intestine histology of Florida pompano,Trachinotus carolinus

The present study was designed to investigate the effects of diets containing advanced soy products (enzyme‐treated soy and fermented soy) or corn protein concentrate (CPC) in combination with porcine meal (PM) to completely replace poultry byproduct meal (PBM) on growth performance, body composition, and distal intestine histology of Florida pompano, Trachinotus carolinus. Four experimental diets were formulated to be isonitrogenous and isolipidic, to contain 400 g/kg crude protein and 80 g/kg lipid. A reference diet (PBM diet [PBMD]) contained 150 g/kg PBM and 495 g/kg soybean meal (SBM), and three test diets were formulated replacing PBM with 15 g/kg of CPC (CPC diet [CPCD]) or replacing all SBM and PBM with 535 g/kg fermented soy (fermented soybean meal diet [FSBMD]) or 451.3 g/kg enzyme‐treated soy (enzyme‐treated soybean meal diet [ESBMD]). All three test diets were supplemented with 38 g/kg of PM. Diets were fed based on a percentage of bodyweight adjusted after sampling the fish every 2 weeks to triplicate groups of Florida pompano juveniles (mean weight 8.06 ± 0.22 g). After 8 weeks of feeding, fish fed CPCD and ESBMD performed equally well in terms of final body weight, thermal growth coefficient, and percentage weight gain in comparison to fish fed PBMD. In all cases, feeding FSBMD resulted in poor feed conversion and lower feed intake compared to other treatments. Protein retention efficiency, whole‐body proximate composition, phosphorus, sulfur, potassium, magnesium, calcium, sodium, and zinc contents were not significantly influenced by the dietary treatments. The results obtained in the present histological study showed no significant differences in the thickness of serous layer, muscular layer, and submucosal layer of the intestine among treatments. Fish fed CPCD showed a significant widening of the lamina propria with an increase of cellular infiltration and higher presence of goblet cells compared to other dietary treatment. Based on these results, 451 g/kg ESBM or combination of 150 g/kg of CPC and 495 g/kg SBM supplemented with 38 g/kg PM can be utilized to develop a practical diet for juvenile Florida pompano without impacting growth, nutritive parameters, and several distal intestine health parameters.

Bamboo NiR gene is associated with regeneration capacity

It was reported that the activity of NiR (nitrite reductase) enzyme encoded by the NiR gene was correlated with the regeneration ability in rice. To testify the function of NiR gene in bamboo, seven bamboo species whose calli had different differentiation rate were chosen to analyse their NiR enzyme activity. The results showed that bamboo NiR enzymatic activity had a certain correlation with the regeneration capacity. A NiR gene named DhNiR from Dendrocalamus hamiltonii with high regeneration capacity was cloned. Sequence analysis revealed that the ORF of DhNiR was 1779bp encoding 592 amino acids. Overexpression of DhNiR in rice reduced the time of shoot differentiation and increased the transformation rate, suggesting that DhNiR might play an important role in the regeneration ability of bamboo, and can be applied in regeneration and gene transformation of bamboo and other plant species.

鸡实验性急性有机磷中毒血清酶活性变化分析

选取临床健康体质量为0.8±0.07kg的三黄肉鸡24只,随机分成3个试验组和1个对照组,每组6只,其中试验、和组分别皮下一次注射氧乐果攻毒,剂量分别为35mg/kg体质量、70mg/kg体质量和140mg/kg体质量;对照组注射生理盐水。攻毒后系统观察动物急性有机磷中毒症状,采血测定体内胆碱酯酶(CHE)、碱性磷酸酶(ALP)、乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)、谷丙转氨酶(ALT)以及谷草转氨酶(AST)的活力。试验结果表明:鸡急性有机磷中毒主要表现为精神沉郁,共济失调,口角大量流涎,呼吸困难,严重腹泻和粪便带血等临床症状。攻毒组CHE3活性显著低于对照组,ALP的活性也有所降低,LDH活性升高,但ALT和AST的活性无显著变化。     

Corneocyte Counts for Evaluation of Antiseborrheic Shampoos in Dogs

Abstract— An objective method for measuring corneocyte numbers before and after antiseborrheic shampoo therapy was assessed in dogs. Corneocytes were collected from six skin regions on the dorsal trunk of nine colony-raised beagles with clinically normal skin. Forty-eight collection sites were randomly assigned a treatment with one of seven medicated shampoos or water alone; six additional sites served as non-treated controls. Corneocytes were collected immediately before the first treatment, and 14 and 28 days after initiation of therapy with a 0.1% Tween 80 surfactant and a quantitative cup-scrub technique. Pretreatment corneocyte counts were not significantly different among the nine dogs nor among the randomly assigned treatment and control sites (3.55 · 10⁴ cells.cm^-2, SEM 0.17). Corneocyte counts increased in all treatment and control sites from days 0 to 14. Corneocyte counts were similar in the non-treated and water-treated sites from days 14 to 28. Corneocyte counts were not significantly different when the same treatments were compared on days 0, 14 and 28, or when different treatments were compared on the same day. The corneocyte collection technique used in this study proved to be a reliable method for assessing the rate of cell desquamation and cell surface cohesion in dogs.

菲莱氏温扬球虫(Wenyonella philiplevinei)受精和卵囊壁形成的超微结构研究

本文利用透射电镜研究了寄生于家鸭小肠上皮细胞的菲莱氏温扬球虫的受精和卵囊壁的形成过程。作者在感染后96 h 的样品中发现一例大、小配子已受精;小配子已进入大配子中,大配子胞质中有一根纵切的鞭毛,小配子的核呈流体状,位于大配子核附近。卵囊壁是由成囊颗粒内含物进入合子表面的膜之间沉积成层而形成。成囊颗粒Ⅰ形成外层卵囊壁,成囊颗粒Ⅱ形成内层卵囊壁。沉积于膜之间的成囊颗粒Ⅰ内含物逐渐浓缩,堆积成颗粒状,使卵囊壁外层外表面形成颗粒状突起。成熟的卵囊壁由三层组成:即薄的外周膜、外层和内层。其内的合子原生质还被两层单位膜包裹。
