The experiment was carried out to establish a method for preparation and identification of N-glycolylneuramic acid IgY antibody.Neu5Gc was linked to carrier proteins by carbodiimide(EDC)method.After the immunization of immunogen to laying hens,the IgY antibody was gained.Neu5Gc-IgY was analyzed and identified by ELISA.The results of UV and agarose gel electrophoresis showed that the artificial antigens of Neu5Gc were successfully synthesized.The development of the IgY antibody titer was monitored by indirect ELISA.The result showed that the IgY antibody was generated at 7th day after the first immunization.The titer was gradually increased and reached its peak (1:10 000) at 63th day after the first immunization.The high titer of the IgY antibody maintained through the whole observation period.The sensitivity of anti-Neu5AGc IgY antibody was detected by the competitive blocking ELISA.The linearity about the first chicken of the standard curve showed good,the liner regression equation was y=30.28x+16.923,R2=0.9581.The IgY antibody gained in this study laid the foundation for the establishment of indirect ELISA immunoassay method for detecting Neu5Gc in red meat,milk and tumor tissues. 相似文献
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of iron glycine chelate (Fe‐Gly) on laying performance, antioxidant enzyme activities, serum biochemical indices and iron concentrations in laying hens. A total of 810 laying hens (Hy‐Line Variety White, 26 weeks old) were randomly assigned to six groups with five replicates of 27 layers. Hens in the control group received diet supplemented with 60 mg Fe/kg as FeSO4, while hens in other five groups received the diet supplemented with 0, 20, 40, 60 and 80 mg Fe/kg from Fe‐Gly respectively. The results showed that dietary Fe‐Gly treatments significantly influenced (p < 0.01) the laying rate and egg weight of layers, compared with the control group. Concerning to CuZn‐superoxide dismutase (CuZn‐SOD) and total superoxide dismutase (T‐SOD) activity, Fe‐Gly groups (60, 80 mg Fe/kg) were promoted significantly (p < 0.01) compared with 0 mg Fe/kg group. The concentrations of Fe in serum, liver, kidney, spleen and ovary were increased significantly with the level dietary Fe‐Gly raised where Fe‐Gly groups (60, 80 mg Fe/kg) had observably higher Fe concentration than the control (p < 0.01) in serum, kidney and spleen. There was a trend that transferrin mRNA expression was decreased with the increase of Fe as Fe‐Gly in diets, and compared with the control, the expression was lower in the group fed diet with 60 mg/kg Fe as Fe‐Gly. In conclusion, Fe‐Gly (60 mg Fe/kg) had improved laying rate, egg weight, SOD enzyme activity, Fe absorption and protein synthesis in body and promoted iron metabolism in laying hens. Moreover, Fe‐Gly (40 mg/kg Fe) had the similar effect with control group. It revealed that FeSO4 could be substituted by lower concentration of Fe‐Gly and Fe‐Gly may be superior to FeSO4 for iron fortification to laying hens. 相似文献
1. This study was conducted to determine the effects of feeding an extruded flaxseed (EF) on layer performance, apparent total tract nutrient retention (ATTR) and egg yolk fatty acid concentrations.
2. Seventy-two White Leghorn laying hens (58-week-old; three per cage) were randomly allotted to one of four dietary treatments: 0%, 7.5%, 15.0% and 22.5% of EF-supplemented diets for 8 weeks.
3. Supplementation with EF had no effect on feed intake, egg production, feed conversion ratio and egg weight. Egg components (yolk, albumen and shell percentages) were similar among treatments, except that shell percentage was greater for layers fed 22.5% EF than those fed 7.5% and 15% EF. The ATTR of dry matter and organic matter were highest for 0% and 7.5% EF, intermediate for 15% EF and lowest for 22.5% EF. Similar reductions on ATTR of crude protein and nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolisable energy were observed for layers fed 22.5% EF relative to those fed 0% or 7.5% EF.
4. Feeding EF at 7.5%, 15.0% and 22.5% of the diet markedly increased (by 92%, 198% and 271%, respectively) egg yolk concentrations of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and reduced saturated fatty acid and n-6 PUFA concentrations.
5. It was concluded that omega-3 labelled eggs (300 mg/60 g of egg) may be produced with low (7.5% of diet) levels of dietary EF without compromising egg production parameters. However, feeding moderate to high levels of EF (i.e. 15% and 22.5% EF) may reduce total tract nutrient and energy utilisation. 相似文献
This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of nanocalcium carbonate (NCC) instead of calcium carbonate (CC) on egg production, egg weight, egg mass, FCR, blood calcium and egg quality characteristics in laying hens. A total of 120 laying hens were used in a 10‐weeks trial, from week 23 to 33 of age. Laying hens were randomly assigned to six treatments with four replications, five hens each. The experimental treatments involved replacing 50% of the CC in the diet by decreasing amounts of NCC and were T1 Basal diet (BD) with 8.06% CC; T2 (6.045% of CC as a negative control); T3 (4.03% of CC replaced by 2.015% NCC); T4 (4.03% of CC replaced by 1.01% NCC); T5 (4.03% of CC replaced by 0.252% NCC) and T6 (4.03 of CC replaced with 0.126%NCC).Egg weight was unaffected by dietary treatments (p >.05). However, the egg production percentage and egg mass in T6 were less than that of other treatments (p <.05). The laying hens in the control group had the best average feed conversion ratio (p <.05). Also, the lowest concentration of calcium in hens’ blood was recorded for birds fed T6 (p <.05). The best egg shell quality (relative egg shell weight and egg shell weight/surface) was observed in T1 (p <.05).Collectively, our results demonstrated that NCC could replace CC at a lower inclusion level but extreme reduction of calcium concentration in diets (to 1.43% Ca in the T6 group) reduced production performance, egg quality characteristics, Tibia thickness and blood calcium of laying hens. 相似文献
