Site and extent of amino acid digestion in dairy cattle fed with corn and its byproducts

The study was conducted to evaluated the site and extent of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), methionine (Met), lysine (Lys), and threonine (Thr) digestion of corn and byproducts obtained from corn germ mixed with different amounts of extruded or non-extruded ether extract (EE) in dairy cattle. Treatments consisted in eight types of feed and two processing in a 4 x 2 factorial design. There were four feeds: corn grain cracked (Corn), corn germ meal with 1% EE (CG1), corn germ meal with 7% EE (CG7), and corn germ meal with 10% EE (CG10). The feeds were processed in one of two ways: extruded (Ex) and not extruded. In situ techniques were used to determine DM, CP, Met, Lys, and Thr partial and total tract digestion. A basic diet was compounded of corn germ meal, soybean meal and coastcross hay in a 70: 30 roughage to concentrate ratio. There was no interaction (P>0.05) between feeds and processing method. Extrusion improved (P<0.05) total tract digestibility of corn DM but not CP. Intestinal digestibility was similar (P>0.05) for corn and corn germ meal mixed with 7 and 10% EE, regardless of EE processing method. The CP total tract digestibility of corn germ meal with 1% non-extruded EE was 16.62% higher (P<0.05) than that of the extruded form. The best total CP digestibility was obtained for corn germ meal with 7% EE, independently of the processing method. The effects of EE processing method on partial and total digestibility differed between amino acid. Corn and corn byproduct extrusion may improve dry matter digestibility, but do not necessarily influence crude protein digestion. Ruminal and intestinal digestibility of Met, Lys, and Thr depends on both feed type and processing method. Therefore, amino acid availability should be considered individually.

Efeito inseticida de vicilinas isoladas de sementes de erythrina velutina em condições de semi-campo para moscas das frutas (ceratitis capitata)

Chitin-binding vicilins from legume seeds (Erythrina velutina. Canavalia ensiformes and Phaseolus vulgares) were isolated by ammonium sulfate followed by affinity chromatography on a chitin column. Effect of these vicilins on female adults of Ceratitis capitata was examined by bioassay and in a semi-field assay model. Mechanism of action of the vicilins was determined by in vivo digestibility and chitin affinity. Among the tested vicilins, E. velutina when added to diet caused strong effect on mortality at 10% dose. This insecticidal property was tested in a semi-field assay which showed the same effect observed in laboratory conditions, where doses of 10% and 15% were lethal to female adults of C. capitata. These deleterious effects were not only associated to the binding to chitin structures present in peritrophic membrane, but principally to its low digestibility in the C. capitata digestive tract. This fact was confirmed because chiting binding proteins as WGA and the other tested vicilins were not toxic to female adults of C. capitata due susceptibility of these proteins to digestive enzymes of the insects. By other side EvV was more resistant to digestive enzymes, causing deleterious effects on female adults of C. capitata. These results showed that EvV may be part of the pest management programs or an alternative in plant improvement program in the population control of this fruticulture pest

Identificación bacteriana en pacientes con colecistitis aguda del servicio de cirugía Hospital Vicente Corral Moscoso, Cuenca 2001

Se realizó un estudio de tipo prospectivo descriptivo, con el objeto de identificar la presencia o no de gérmenes en la bilis de pacientes que presentaron colicistitis aguda, que acudieron al servicio de emergencia y consulta externa de Hospital Vicente Corral Moscoso. Durante el período de Enero a Mayo del 2001. Determinándose que esta patología al ser de inicio súbito, fue tratada en su mayoría antes de las 72 horas, siendo más frecuente en el sexo femenino, y con mayor incidencia entre la tercera y quinta década de la vida, de quienes se obtuvo bilis mediante punción de la vesícula biliar durante la colecistectomía. Luego se procedió a realizar Tinción de Gram y cultivos, los gérmenes encontrados en la tinción en fresco, fueron en su gran mayoría Gram negativos. Siendo además la E. Coli el gérmen más frecuente en medio de cultivo

Influência da temperatura na germinação de sementes de Digitaria insularis, Leptochloa virgata, Pennisetum setosum e Sorghum halepense

Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar a influência de temperaturas constantes na germinação de sementes de espécies de plantas daninhas da família Poaceae que apresentam ocorrência em áreas de pastagem, para isto, foram analisadas as sementes de Digitaria insularis, Leptochloa virgata, Pennisetum setosum e Sorghum halepense coletadas manualmente de diversas plantas em áreas de pastagem. As sementes foram dispostas em caixas gerbox sobre folha dupla de papel "germitest", umedecido com água destilada equivalente a 2,5 vezes a massa do papel seco. As caixas foram incubadas em três germinadores verticais tipo MANGELSDORF com as temperaturas de 25ºC, 30ºC e 35ºC e fotoperíodo de 12 horas. As avaliações foram realizadas, efetuando-se a contagem diária das ocorrências germinativas, a partir da protrusão da radícula, durante 28 dias após o início do estudo. Os parâmetros avaliados foram porcentagem e índice de velocidade de germinação (IVG), efetuando-se a análise estatística pela análise de variância com comparação de médias pelo teste de Tukey a 5% de probabilidade e transformação dos resultados de porcentagem de germinação. As temperaturas que proporcionam os melhores resultados de porcentagem e velocidade de germinação são 30 e 35°C, para as espécies de D. insularis, L. virgata e S. halepense, por outro lado, a espécie de P. setosum não apresenta germinação em nenhuma das temperaturas avaliadas (25º 30º e 35ºC) não são adequadas para a sua germinação.
