[Method] Thirty-two black-white lactating cows were randomly divided into four groups, and were fed with forage supplemented with 0 (control group), 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6% Zengrujianniusan for 60 d. During this period, the contents of fat, protein and non-fat solid in milk were measured every 20 d. [Result] The milk production of the cows whose forage was added with 0.2 %, 0.4 % and 0.6% Zengrujianniusan was 4.02%, 12.50%, 14.00% higher than that of the control (P〉0.05). The herbal feed additive had no significant influence on the contents of fat, milk and non-fat solid in milk, but significantly reduced the number of somatic cells. [Conclusion] The study will provide reference for developing feed additives which is safe and non-toxic to cows and their milk.展开更多

The experiment was conducted at the "ShafashirToos industrial dairy farmers production and distribution cooperative" located in Northeast Iran, between June 2010 and December 2010. In Golshid-Mashhad Co., cows were fed with no linseed containing diets (NO-Lin), while in the other farms (Hanaei Co., Ghasemi Co., Taheri Co., Teliseh Co., Arasp Co. and Navingholshid-Khorasan Co.), cows were fed diets containing 9% ground linseed (Lin). Cows were used in a randomized complete block experimental design. Diets were provided as TMR. Concentration of fat, protein and lactose in milk was measured. Milk fat extraction and fatty acid separation were determined. There were no differences in the most of the milk fatty acid profiles of cows in farms that received ground linseed but feeding Lin diets compared with NO-Lin, significantly decreased (P 〈 0.05) C8:0-C16:0 concentration and it increased those of C 18:1 n9trans, C 18:1 n9cis, C 18:2 trans and C 18:3 n3. As a result, farms with Lin diets had better milk fatty acid profiles with doubled in a-Linolenic acid concentration and increased in mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids and decrease in medium chain and saturated fatty acids compared with those of the NO-Lin diet. These results clearly demonstrate the possibility for sustainable production of organic omega-3 milk with levels ofC18:3 FA up to 2.4 times higher than typical levels in dairy fat. The manufacture of omega-3 enriched milk and milk products could supply dietary fatty acids at levels that may henefit health, without the need for unrealistic changes to eating habits.展开更多

Large quantities of circulating NEFA may alter the serum FA profile of phospholipids (PL) fraction, which is responsible for cellular plasma membrane integrity and intercellular signaling. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of subcutaneous fat stores, as assessed by body condition score (BCS) on a scale of one to five, around the time of calving and the subsequent lipomobilization on FA profile of serum NEFA and PL lipid fractions, and on productive performance. Based on BCS, cows were retrospectively dichotomized into two groups: over-conditioned (BCS _〉 3.25) and control (BCS _〈 3.0). 22 cows had serum samples obtained at -28, -7, 8, 18 and 28 d relative to parturition and analyzed for the FA profile of the NEFA and PL fractions. As expected, over-conditioned cows had greater total plasma NEFA concentrations and decreased dry matter intake. Milk yield and composition did not differ between groups. More importantly however, several FA in the NEFA fraction of plasma lipids varied significantly, including C14:1, C16:0, C18:0 and C20:3n3. In the PL fraction, other FA varied significantly by BCS around time of parturition, including C16:0, C17:0, total C18:2 cis, and C20:2. In summary, BCS did affect FA profile of serum NEFA and PL lipid fractions. This may have drastic consequences for circulating immune cells and their ability to fight infection by altering their FA profile.展开更多

Data were collected between April 2009 and April 2010 from randomly selected Holstein crossed breed dairy cow and heifer (30 cows ',and 10 heifers) on faculty farm of faculty of Natural Resources Rajamangala University of Technology Isan, Skon-nakon Campus. Blood samples were collected weekly from each cow, starting 2 weeks before expected calving until 4 weeks postpartum. Serum was analyzed for NEFA and BHBA. The critical threshold for [NEFA] was defined as: 〉 0.4 mmol/L when 〈 -7 to 0 DIM, and 〉 0.7 mmol/L when 3 DIM. Postpartum sub-clinical ketosis (SK) was defined using [BHBA] 〉 14.4 mg/dl. The prevalence of elevated NEFA was 82.5%, 27.5%, 27.5% 7.5% and 7.5% in the dry period, 1st, 2nd 3rd and 5th weeks of lactation, respectively. The prevalence of SK was 12.5% at 2nd weeks of lactation. High prevalence of elevated NEFA during dry period through first 2 weeks of postpartum indicated that periparturient dairy cows suffered some degree of negative energy balance (NEB). These resulted indicated that though, milk yield of these cows were not that high, NEB and ketosis are still major nutrient-related problems.展开更多

Color is an important factor to determine the quality of foods, so that the pigments isolation must be selected type of solvent for extraction process. Besides functioning as dyes, anthocyanins have a role as a good antioxidant, so it can be used to protect the fat content of fermented milk such as yoghurt. This experiment was to find out the effect of different solvent type on extraction pigment (aquadest: sitrat acid/lactic acid/sulfate acid/chloride acid) and to determine the effect of the addition of anthocyanins in protecting the fat content of yogurt on several levels addition. The research result showed that anthocyanin's pigment of red rose from petal flower's could be effective solvent extracted using lactic acid 0.02 M and increased fat stability of yoghurt. The anthocyanin pigment showed with HPLC analysis that pigment resulted TLC analysis at rite time 13.10 (as Cyanidin glucoside) and 22.61 (as Malvidin glucoside). Yoghurt that given anthocyanin pigment has proven that fat content can be maintained its 86.7% (fat content with 2% pigment as such as 0.117% and without pigment 0.087%) after being stored for 6 days at cold and room temperature.展开更多

After two months of ensiling, the silage was evaluated and used in the ration of lactating buffaloes. A Latin square experiment in a changeover design, with three periods of time, each with 20 days for adaptation and 10 days for recording data, was conducted in which 15 multiparous lactating buffloes were used in three similar groups, each with five animals. The prepared silage was included in the diet of lactating buffaloes where a control diet (A) was compared with treatment diets contained 25% (B) and 50% (C) silage (DM basis) respectively. Milk yield was recorded, sampled and analysed for fat, protein, solid not-fat and total solids-content. The maximum daily rough milk yield per animal was obtained on diet C while minimum on diet A (P 〈 0.05). Similar trends were observed for 4% fat corrected milk, and 3.5% fat corrected milk that were significantly different between the treatments (P 〈 0.05). The percentage of crude fat and daily fat yield per animal were significantly (P 〈 0.05) higher in treatment C comparing to A and B. An increasingly trend of milk and fat yield was observed when the animals received silage contained diets but statistically it was significant only for the diets contained 50% silage. In addition, the fat percentage was significantly (P 〈 0.05) increased when the buffaloes received diet containing 50% silage. The highest (P 〈 0.05) amount of protein and total solid yield obtained, when the animals received high (50%) silage diet.展开更多

Bagasse, pineapple peel, corn cob, corn stover and vinasses were used to produce TMF (total mixed fiber) for dairy cow feed. Fifteen multiparous Holstein Friesian dairy cows with an initial body weight of 417.88± 52.60 kg and 83.31 ± 26.47 DIM (days in milk) were randomly allocated to three treatments (TI = rice straw and 1 kg of vinasses; T2 = SCWS (sweet corn waste silage); T3 = TMF (total mixed fiber)) under completely randomized design. The results showed that the chemical composition of TMF was in the normal range of pH and VFA (volatile fatty acids) on silage. However, cows fed TMF and SCWS tended to yield higher level of NH3-N. For volatile fatty acid in rumen fluid, acetate in group of cows fed rice straw with vinasse tended to be the highest. Moreover, propionate in cows fed TMF was found to be the highest among all treatments (P 〉 0.05). In conclusion, the TMF can be used to feed dairy cow without affecting rumen parameter.展开更多

In cheese production, lysophospholipids act as surface-active agents in the cheese curd, helping emulsification of water and fat during processing and reducing syneresis. Phospholipases are more specific and have little or no activity toward di- or triglycerides. As a result of phospholipid hydrolysis, flavor defects do not occur due to the main formation of palmitic, oleic, and stearic acids, which are non-volatile short chains fatty acids. According to the scientific studies the use of phospholipase is able to increase the yield of cheese and reduce the environmental impacts of cheese production. Protein and fat largely determine cheese yield. Depending on the milk composition, 75% to 78% of milk protein and 85% to 95% of milk fat are entrapped in the cheese curd. The remaining protein and fat are lost in the whey and, to a lesser extent, in the brine. Crucially in the production of pasta filata cheese fat losses occur in the hot stretching step, where the fresh curd is molded and stretched in hot water. The lysophospholipid-casein complexes should be studied to understand the mechanism leading to cheese yield improvements.展开更多

The physical properties and the sensory evaluation of ice cream were then investigated. The firmness of goat milk ice cream mixed with rice bran oil, butter and cream were not significantly different before aging at 4 ℃ for 8 h. All of them gave the overrun between 51%-63% and the one with butter was the highest. The meltdown rate of all types of fat ingredients are not significantly different, being in the range of 0.86-0.88 g/min. According to sensory evaluation, the cow milk ice cream with cream was mostly accepted in all attributes such as appearance, smoothness, whiteness, melting in mouth and odor while the goat milk with cream and butter are the second and third. Nevertheless, the goat milk ice cream with soybean oil and rice bran oil were moderately accepted in overall preferences.展开更多
