Particle Size Distribution in Two Lipid Emulsions Used for the Enrichment of Artemia nauplii as a Function of Their Preparation Method and Storage Time

The present study examined the distribution of particle sizes in two experimental standardized lipid emulsions (distributed by ICES, International Council for the Exploration of the Sea) as a function of the preparation method (hand shaking or ultrasonic blending) and as a function of storage time. A 24-h enrichment trial compared the incorporated HUFA levels in the nauplii of Artemia franciscana .
The emulsion droplets in the 50% HUFA emulsion (ICES 50, ethyl ester based) were much smaller than in the 30% HUFA emulsion (ICES 30, triacylglycerol-based) in which 90% of the droplets had a diameter below 12.3 μm as compared to 1.3 pn in ICES 50. The blending method highly affected particle sizes. High-shear blending instead of the classical hand shaking of the emulsion of both ICES 30 and 50 reduced the mean particle size from 5.06 to 1.07 μm and from 0.38 to 0.11 μm, respectively. The particle size distributions remained stable during the 1-wk storage, suggesting the absence of agglomeration or bacterial development. The fatty acid composition of 24-h enriched Artemia reflected differences in the HUFA profile of the emulsions, but was independent of observed differences in the size of the particles.  相似文献

In vitro activity of danofloxacin, tylosin and oxytetracycline against mycoplasmas of veterinary importance     

A.C. Cooper  J.R. Fuller  M.K. Fuller  P. Whittlestone  D.R. Wise 《Research in veterinary science》1993,54(3):329

The activities of danofloxacin, a novel fluoroquinolone, and two other antimicrobials were determined in vitro against field isolates of seven Mycoplasma species of veterinary importance isolated from cattle, swine and poultry in five European countries. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of danofloxacin, tylosin and oxytetracycline were determined against a total of 68 isolates. Danofloxacin showed excellent activity against isolates of all Mycoplasma species (range 0·008 to 0·5 μg ml⁻¹), but in some isolates there was evidence of reduced sensitivity to tylosin (range 0·008 to 2·0 μg ml⁻¹) and oxytetracycline (range 0·008 to over 16·0 μg ml⁻¹). Danofloxacin was more active than other antimicrobials against, M hyopneumoniae, M dispar and M bovigenitalium, and showed activity similar to that of tylosin against M bovis and M gallisepticum. Tylosin was the most active against M synoviae and M hyosynoviae. Generally, oxytetracycline showed the poorest activity, but was superior to tylosin against M bovigenitalium. A second (final) MIC reading was taken for all isolates 14 or 21 days after the initial reading, and MIC values rose during that time. However, the increase seen in danofloxacin values (typically one to two dilutions) was less than that seen for tylosin and oxytetracycline. It is concluded that danofloxacin is highly active in vitro against all of the Mycoplasma species tested, and thus shows great potential for the treatment of respiratory and other infections caused by Mycoplasma species in cattle, pigs and poultry.  相似文献

Landscape-ecological mapping of the Netherlands   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

The Landscape-ecological Mapping of the Netherlands project (LMN project) started in 1983 with the aim of establishing a landscape-ecological database for use in developing and evaluating national land-use plans. The project, working with grid cells of 1 km², has four working objectives: a) development of mapping potential for basic landscape-ecological data, b) assessment of susceptibility to interventions, c) evaluation of significance for nature conservation and d) production of vulnerability maps, as a combination of susceptibility and significance. In addition to information on soil, groundwater, ecotopes, flora and fauna, the database also incorporates information on physiographical features and entire landscapes. The resulting database is a geographic information system (GIS). This article describes the second phase of the project (1985–1989), covering the Randstad area, and focusses on the methods and the applications potential of the database.  相似文献   

A strategy for control of bovine leukemia virus infection: test and corrective management   总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0       下载免费PDF全文

Test and corrective management was applied in one dairy herd (130 milking cows) to control bovine leukemia virus infection. It consisted of: raising uninfected calves in order to establish a pool of uninfected replacement heifers, preventing transmission of bovine leukemia virus through transfer of blood from animal to animal and closing the herd. Regular herd testing was combined with selected changes in herd management. These procedures have been followed since January 1979. Prevalence of antibodies (as determined by gel-immunodiffusion) has declined markedly since the program was implemented.  相似文献   

Influence of Dietary Fat and Short-Time Starvation on the Composition of Sow-Milk Fat     

Gunnar Tollerz  Paul Lindberg 《Acta veterinaria Scandinavica》1965,6(1):118

The influence of cottonseed oil and of linseed oil upon the fatty-acid composition of milk fat was each studied in one sow. Each oil was added to the basic diet in an amount of 6.3 % for two periods of the lactation. As cottonseed oil has a fatty-acid composition that is similar to that of the basic diet, the supplement with this oil will, in general, increase the same kind of fat in the diet. The linoleic-acid content in the milk fat will be nearly redoubled (11.7 % to 20.5 %) when the cottonseed oil is added. The supplement with linseed oil (of which linolenic acid constitutes about 58 %) to the food raised the linolenic-acid level in the milk fat from 1.1 % to 18.3 %. The increase of linoleic and linolenic acid is counterbalanced by a decrease of shorter fatty acids (G 14 and G 16 acids). The fatty-acid composition of the milk fat adjusts itself to the dietary changes within two or three days.By feeding a diet containing 16.7 % cottonseed oil to a sow, about 27 % linoleic acid was obtained in the sow’s milk fat.The influence of 30 hours of starvation upon the fatty-acid composition was studied in two sows. The content of G 18 acids rose during starvation and that of shorter acids (C14 and C16) diminished.  相似文献
