We observed the effects of a commercial microbiological additive (MA) on the beef manure composting process and investigated the changes in its physical and chemical components and microbial populations in the composting process. When beef manure compost was inoculated with the MA, its temperature rapidly increased at the beginning of the process, and after the first turning, the ammonia emission from the compost pile and nitrate production decreased quicker than that in the composting process without the MA. During the composting process, the manure inoculated with MA showed a larger numbers of mesophilic and thermophilic aerobes, and a smaller number of thermophilic anaerobes than in the process without the MA. These results suggested that mesophilic aerobes increased in number and metabolized ammonia by assimilation rather than nitrification to accelerate the temperature elevation in the composting process with the MA. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α is a powerful macrophage cytokine released during infection, circulating in the blood to produce diverse effects in the organism. We examined the effect of recombinant bovine TNF‐α (rbTNF‐α) administration on hormone release in dairy cows during early lactation. Twelve non‐pregnant Holstein cows were treated subcutaneously with rbTNF‐α (2.5 µg/kg) or saline twice (at 11.00 and 23.00 hours). At 11.00 hours the next day, the cows were given growth hormone‐releasing hormone (GHRH, 0.25 µg/kg), thyrotrophin‐releasing hormone (TRH, 1.0 µg/kg), thyroid‐stimulating hormone (TSH, 10 µg/kg) or adrenocorticotropic hormone (500 µg/head) via the jugular vein. In the growth hormone‐releasing hormone challenge, the plasma growth hormone concentration was lower in the rbTNF‐α group than in the control (saline) group. The growth hormone and TSH responses to TRH were also smaller in the rbTNF‐α group than in the control. The plasma prolactin response to TRH was not affected by the rbTNF‐α treatment. In the TSH challenge, the rbTNF‐α‐treated cows had lower responses, as measured by plasma triiodothyronine and thyroxine, than the control cows. The rbTNF‐α treatment produced an increase in the basal plasma cortisol level, but the cortisol response to adrenocorticotropic hormone was the same level in both groups. The plasma concentrations of TNF‐α and interleukin‐1β in the cows were elevated by the rbTNF‐α treatment. The milk yield was reduced by the rbTNF‐α administration during 4 days. These data demonstrate that TNF‐α alters the secretion of pituitary and thyroid hormones in lactating cows. This effect may contribute to the suppression of the lactogenic function of the mammary gland observed in cases of coliform mastitis with high circulating TNF‐α levels. 相似文献

比较研究了鹅掌楸属(Liriodendron)中国鹅掌楸、北美鹅掌楸和杂交鹅掌楸3个树种次生木质部的显微构造。经方差分析,3个树种间导管分子、木纤维、轴向薄壁组织和木射线组织等解剖特征存在极显著差异,杂交鹅掌楸次生木质部结构兼具亲本特征。首次发现中国鹅掌楸中存在单穿孔导管,约占4%。中国鹅掌楸较北美鹅掌楸导管分子短、导管端壁穿孔板横隔数少、弦切面木射线组织的宽度、高度小以及轴向薄壁细胞束的细胞个数少。北美鹅掌楸与中国鹅掌楸相比具有更多的原始特征,中国鹅掌楸较北美鹅掌楸进化。 相似文献

Mycoplasma spp. are highly contagious pathogens and intramammary Mycoplasma infection is a serious issue for the dairy industry. As there is no effective vaccine for Mycoplasma infection, control depends on good husbandry and chemo‐antibiotic therapy. In this study, antimicrobial susceptibility of Mycoplasma strains recently isolated from cases of bovine mastitis in Japan was evaluated by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). All Mycoplasma bovis strains were sensitive to pirlimycin, danofloxacin and enrofloxacin, but not kanamycin, oxytetracycline, tilmicosin or tylosin. M. californicum and M. bovigenitalium strains were sensitive to pirlimycin, danofloxacin, enrofloxacin, oxytetracycline, tilmicosin and tylosin, but not to kanamycin. This is the first report to describe the MIC of major antimicrobial agents for Mycoplasma species isolated from bovine mastitis in Japan. 相似文献

Previous estimates of land-atmosphere interaction (the impact of soil moisture on precipitation) have been limited by a lack of observational data and by the model dependence of computational estimates. To counter the second limitation, a dozen climate-modeling groups have recently performed the same highly controlled numerical experiment as part of a coordinated comparison project. This allows a multimodel estimation of the regions on Earth where precipitation is affected by soil moisture anomalies during Northern Hemisphere summer. Potential benefits of this estimation may include improved seasonal rainfall forecasts. 相似文献

Lipofuscin is one of the indicators of oxidative stress. To elucidate the role of oxidative stress in the development of wooden breast, this study investigates lipofuscin accumulation in various parts of wooden breast muscles. Sampling was performed using 46-day-old broiler chickens housed at a commercial Japanese poultry slaughterhouse. Fourteen wooden breast fillets and 13 normal breast fillets were collected in the deboning line. The samples used to measure shear force, 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), and for histological analysis were taken from the six portions of breast muscle fillets. In muscles affected by wooden breast, vacuolated muscle fibers were observed, and connective tissues appearing like perimysium were expanded with fibrosis. TBARS value and accumulation of lipofuscin were significantly higher in the wooden breast than in the normal breasts. A lot of lipofuscin granules were localized in the cytoplasm of collapsed muscle fibers of the wooden breast. The cranial portion of the wooden breast showed the highest shear force. The cranial position had a large amount of connective tissue and lipofuscin granules. The results of the present study strongly suggest that high oxidative stress, especially with a significant accumulation of lipofuscin, is associated with the development of wooden breasts. 相似文献

Heat-induced morphological change in myosin filaments was observed using atomic force microscope. The thickness of fixed native myosin filament was estimated to be 95 +/- 5 nm. When myosin filaments in 0.1 M NaCl at pH 6.0 were heated at 40, 55, and 70 degrees C for 10 min, the particulate structure appeared spirally on the surface of the filament at 40 degrees C, and the thickness of the filament was 75 +/- 10 nm. When myosin filaments were treated at 55 degrees C, several filaments were formed associated with side-by-side interaction through projected myosin heads to form a strand. The surface of the strand looked knobby. The thickness of thermally denatured filaments at 55 degrees C was 48 +/- 5 nm, and that of strands was about 80-110 nm, indicating the involvement of several filaments in a strand. The strands became to be rope-like at 70 degrees C, and the individual filaments in a strand were not distinguishable. 相似文献

An 11-year-old male toy poodle with neurological symptoms was diagnosed with a macroscopic pituitary tumor, which produced adrenocorticotropic hormone. Radiation therapy with a linear accelerator was performed for the pituitary tumor, and resulted in good local tumor control. However, serum endogenous adrenocorticotropic hormone concentrations were uncontrollable even after the tumor disappeared. Abdominal computed tomography revealed splenic masses, and splenectomy was performed. Histopathological examination of the surgical specimen showed tumor cells with eosinophilic and finely granular cytoplasm suggestive of endocrine origin. Since these cells were positive for adrenocorticotropic hormone, the case was diagnosed as a pituitary carcinoma with distant metastasis. Necropsy revealed multiple metastases to the abdominal organs. This is the first case report describing canine pituitary carcinoma with distant metastasis. 相似文献
