Seventy two Black Bengal goats on road side grass based diet were fed on 0, 20, 40, 80, 100 or 120 g of fish meal (FM)/goat/day with or without ad libitum access to urea molasses block(UMB). The purpose was to assess the interaction of undegradable protein (UDP) and fermentable nitrogen(N) supplementation on feed intake, nutrient digestibility and growth of goats. Live weight gain of goats increased linearly with the increasing of dietary fish meal as an undegradable protein source. With the increasing level of fish meal the live weight gain(g/day) was 17, 23, 46, 48, 48 and 52 with urea molasses block and 12, 21, 31, 49, 47 and 47 without urea molasses block. It was concluded that the beneficial effects of urea molasses feeding to accelerate the dry matter intake, TDN intake and nutrient digestibility observed could not be exploited in terms of live weight gain.

본 연구는 젖소에서 곡류의 가공형태 및 RUP수준이 효과를 구명하기 위하여 분만 전 3주부터 분만 후 3주까지 전환기 Holstein종 경산우 20두(4처리 5반복)에게 TMR 사료를 GCR30 (파쇄옥수수+RUP 30%), GCR40 (파쇄옥수수+RUP40%), FCR30 (후레이크옥수수+RUP 30%), FCR40 (후레이크옥수수+RUP 40%)로 하여, 건유기와 비유기로 구분하여 배합하여 급여하였다. 본 연구로부터 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 분만전 사료의 건물 섭취량은 처리별로 평균 14～15kg이었으며, 건유기간 중 사료섭취량에는 유의한 차이가 없었으나, 분만 후 건물섭취량에서는 RUP 40%에서 섭취량이 RUP30%보다 높게 나타났다 (P＜0.05). 유량은 RUP 40 % 사료를 급여한 구 (FCR40과 GCR40)에서 유의하게 높은 결과를 보여주었다. 유단백질과 유지방을 분석한 결과, 유지방에 있어서는 옥수수 가공 형태인 후레이크와 파쇄처리에 따른 유의있는 결과를 보여주지는 않았다. 혈액 내 대사물질은 분만 전에 비하여 분만 당일의 수치가 모든 처리에서 상승하는 것을 볼 수 있었으며, 분만전ㆍ후의 NEFA의 농도를 보면 모든 처리구에서 분만을 기점으로 상승하였으며, 특히 분만 후에 유량이 높았던 FCR40에서 NEFA 수준이 전반적으로 높은 경향을 보였다 (p<0.05). Glucose와 cortisol 수준은 포도당 농도에서 FCR40구의 건유기가 다른 구보다 유의하게 높았으나 타 처리구간에서는 유의차가 인정되지 않았다. Insulin 농도에 있어서도 분만 전에 처리 간에 유의한 차이가 없으나, 분만 후에는 타처리와 비교하여 FCR40 처리에서 유의하게 높은 농도를 보여 주었다 (p<0.05). 이 시험에서는 옥수수의 가공형태보다는 동량의 단백질에 RUP 함량을 30 %에서 40 %로 증가시킴으로서 에너지, 단백질 이용 효율을 높여 젖소의 생산성을 높일 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

The objectives of this study was to evaluate the degradability and digestibility of crude protein (CP), rumen undegradable protein (RUP), and individual amino acids (AA) on six by-product feedstuffs (BPF) (rice bran, RB; wheat bran, WB; corn gluten feed, CGF; tofu residue, TR; spent mushroom substrate from Pleurotus ostreatus, SMSP; brewers grain, BG) as ruminants feed. Three Hanwoo steers (40 months old, $520{\pm}20.20kg$ of body weight) fitted with a permanent rumen cannula and T-shaped duodenal cannula were used to examine of the BPF using in situ nylon bag and mobile bag technique. The bran CGF (19.2%) and food-processing residue BG (19.7%) had the highest CP contents than other feeds. The RUP value of bran RB (39.7%) and food-processing residues SMSP (81.1%) were higher than other feeds. The intestinal digestion of CP was higher in bran RB (44.2%) and food-processing residues BG (40.5%) than other feeds. In addition, intestinal digestion of Met was higher in bran RB (55.7%) and food-processing residues BG (44.0%) than other feeds. Overall, these results suggest that RB and BG might be useful as main raw ingredients in feed for ruminants. Our results can be used as baseline data for ruminant ration formulation.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary undegradable protein (UP) level on body weight change, nutrient intake, milk production and postpartum reproductive performance of Awassi ewes. Twenty-seven multiparous Awassi ewes (initial body weight = 53.3${\pm}$1.6 kg) were randomly assigned to three dietary treatments (9 ewes/treatment) for 62 days using a completely randomized design. Experimental diets were isonitrogenous (15.5% CP), isocaloric, and were formulated to contain 17.9 (LUP), 27.1 (MUP), and 34.0% (HUP) of the dietary CP as UP. On day 10${\pm}$3 (day 0 = parturition) ewes were housed in individual pens for 5 weeks. Feed offered and refused was recorded daily. At the end of this period, animals were removed from their pens and combined into 3 separate groups (LUP, MUP and HUP). One fertile, harnessed ram was allowed with each group for 34 days. Rams were rotated every 2 days among the three groups. Each group was offered the corresponding experimental diet. Organic matter, CP, UP and metabolizable energy intakes were higher (p<0.05) for ewes fed the HUP diet compared with ewes fed the LUP and MUP diets. Ewes fed the HUP diet gained more (p<0.05) weight compared with ewes fed the MUP diet (7.3 vs. 2.1 kg), while ewes fed the LUP diet lost an average of 2.1 kg. Pregnancy rate of ewes fed the HUP diet was 100%, compared with 66 and 33% for ewes fed the MUP and LUP diets, respectively. Lambing rate was greater (p<0.05) for ewes fed HUP (8/9) diet compared with ewes fed the MUP (4/9) and LUP (3/9) diets. These results indicate that Awassi ewes receiving adequate dietary UP level consume more feed and are capable of returning to estrus shortly after parturition and are capable of producing two lamb crops per year.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of two levels of rumen undegradable protein (RUP) without or with whole or extruded flaxseed on milk yield, milk component, milk fatty acids (FAs) profile and plasma metabolites in transition ewes. Three weeks before and after lambing, seventy-two Baluchi ewes were used in a completely randomized design with a 3 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. The treatments contained 1) no flaxseed + 20% RUP (no flaxseed, low RUP [NFLR]); 2) no flaxseed + 40% RUP (no flaxseed, high RUP [NFHR]); 3) 10% whole flaxseed + 20% RUP (whole flaxseed, low RUP [WFLR]); 4) 10% whole flaxseed + 40% RUP (whole flaxseed, high RUP [WFHR]); 5) 10% extruded flaxseed + 20% RUP (extruded flaxseed, low RUP [EFLR]), and 6) 10% extruded flaxseed + 40% RUP (extruded flaxseed, high RUP [EFHR]). Ewes fed 10% extruded flaxseed exhibited higher (p < 0.001) dry matter intake (DMI) and colostrum yield (p < 0.1) compared to other treatments. Two types of flaxseed and RUP levels had no significant effect on milk yield, but milk fat and protein contents decreased and increased in diets containing 40% RUP, respectively. Ewes fed extruded flaxseed produced milk with lower concentrations of saturated fatty acids (SFA) and higher α-linolenic and linoleic acids and also polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) compared to other groups (p < 0.05). During post-lambing, the ewes fed diets containing flaxseed exhibited higher concentration of serum non-esterified FAs (NEFA) compared to diets without flaxseed (p < 0.01). The concentration of serum β-hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA) decreased in the diets containing flaxseed types at pre-lambing, but increased in diets containing extruded flaxseed at post-lambing (p < 0.01). The serum glucose concentration of ewes (pre and post-lambing) which consumed diets containing extruded flaxseed or 40% RUP increased, but blood urea concentration was elevated following supplementation of diet with whole flaxseed or 40% RUP (p < 0.001). In conclusion, utilization of 10% extruded flaxseed in the diets of transition ewes had positive effects on animal performance with favorable changes in milk FAs profile. However, there is no considerable advantage to supply more than 20% RUP level in the diet of transition dairy sheep.

Twelve dietary combinations were prepared using 70 parts of fermented wheat straw (FWS) as the sole roughage supplemented with 30 parts of either the low protein concentrate mixture (Conc.-I), high protein concentrate mixture (conc.-II), maize grains (M), solvent extracted mustard cake (DMC), deoiled rice bran (DRB), uromol bran mixture (UBM), deep stacked poultry litter (DSPL), dried poultry droppings (DPD), M-DMC mixture (50:50), M-UBM mixture (50:50), M-DPD mixture (50:50) or M-UBM-DPD mixture (50:25:25) and evaluated by in-sacco technique. The above dietary combinations were also evaluated by changing the roughage to concentrate ratio to 60:40. The digestion kinetics for DM and CP revealed that FWS:DPD had the highest, whereas, the FWS:M-DMC had the lowest rapidly soluble fraction. The potentially degradable fraction was found to be maximum in FWS:M and minimum in FWS:DPD dietary combinations. The higher degradation rate of FWS:DRB and FWS:UBM combinations was responsible for their significantly (p<0.05) higher effective degradability as compared to other combinations. The highest undegradable fraction noted in FWS:M-UBM-DPD followed by FWS:DMC was responsible for high rumen fill values. The FWS:DRB, FWS:UBM and FWS:DPD combinations had higher potential for DM intake. The dietary combination with higher concentrate level (60:40) was responsible for higher potentially degradable fraction, which was degraded at a faster rate resulting in significantly higher effective degradability as compared to the corresponding dietary combination with low concentrate level (70:30). The low undegradable fraction in the high concentrate diet was responsible for low rumen fill values, which predicted of high potential for DM intake. Out of 24 dietary combinations, FWS with either of UBM, DRB, DMC, Maize, M-DMC or DPD in 70:30 ratio supplemented with minerals and vitamin A in comparison to conventional feeding practice (roughage and concentrate mixture) could be exploited as complete feed for different categories of ruminants.

Sources of energy and rumen undegradable protein (RUP) have been used to meet nutrient requirements for high producing dairy cows. However studies for manipulation the levels of energy and RUP in diets have been mainly achieved using dairy cows at early-lactation period. The objective of this study thus, was to investigate the effects of different energy and rumen undegradable protein (RUP) levels on dry matter intake and milk yield in Holstein cows at mid-lactation period. Basal diet was prepared as TMR to meet nutrient requirements for dairy cows at mid-lactation according to NRC recommendation. Cows of control group (Con) were fed only basal diets while ground corn (0.5 kg/d), heat-treated soybean meal (0.5 kg/d), and their mixture (0.25 kg of each supplements/d) were added to diets for cows of treatment groups (T1, T2, and T3 respectively) to modulate the level of energy and RUP contents in diets. Addition of energy or RUP source in basal TMR did not affect in total DMI while TMR intake tended to be higher in Con compared to T3. Cows fed T3 diets tended to show increased milk yield and MUN content than those of Con. Cows for T2 as well as T3 had lower ADG (P<0.05) compared with those of Con. We concluded that the addition of RUP source in diets for dairy cows on mid-lactation period might cause the decrement of DMI and ADG.

The effect of three varying ratios (high, medium and low) of Rumen Degradable Protein (RDP) to Undegradable Dietary Protein (UDP) of 37:63, 52:48 and 70:30 in iso-nitrogenous and iso-caloric concentrate mixtures on rumen fermentation profile was studied using rumen fistulated Jersey crossbred cows. Rumen pH and ammonia nitrogen concentration were found to be lower with a concentrate mixture containing a higher UDP level of 63.38% when compared with those having medium and low UDP levels of 47.55 and 29.75%, respectively, at all post feeding intervals. Total volatile fatty acid concentration as well as concentrations of individual fatty acids viz., acetate, propionate and butyrate were also found higher in animals fed concentrate mixture with the highest UDP level.

본 연구는 반추가축에 급여되는 사료원 중 종류별, 수준별 lignosulfonate 처리 대두박의 반추위 내 undegradable protein (UDP) 효율을 알아보기 위하여 실험 I 에서 전체 4종의 lignosulfonate (Desulfonated, Na, Ca, Solution)를 각각 수준별 (2, 4, 8%)로 처리하여 전체 12종의 lignosulfoanted soybeanmeal (LSBM)에 대한 반추위 내 미생물 발효 특성의 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 in vitro 시험이 실시되었다. 실험 H에서는 실험 I 에서 대두박의 단백질 보호 효과가 가장 높은 LSBM Na 2% 처리구와 LSBM Solution (LSBM Sol) 2% 처리구 그리고 열처리 LSBM (LSBM Heat) 2%를 이용하여 rumen simulation continuous culture (RSCC) system을 이용한 반추위 내 미생물 발효 특성에 대한 연구가 실시되었다. 시험 I in vitro 시험에서 모든 LSBM 처리구에서 전체 배양시간 평균 pH수준, gas 생성량, $NH_3$-N 농도, 건물소화율, VFA 생성량 그리고 ADF 소화율은 배양시간이 지남에 따라 대조구에 비해 낮은 결과를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 반추위 내 미생물단백질 합성량은 대조구가 LSMB 처리구 보다 통계적으로 높은 결과를 나타내었으며 (p<0.05), LSBM 수준이 증가할수록 반추위 내 미생물 단백질 합성량은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. UDP 함량은 대조구보다 LSBM 처리구에서 높은 결과를 나타내었으며(p<0.05), 특히 LSBM Sol 처리구는 대조구에 비해 각각 2%, 4% 그리고 8% 처리군에서 11.18%, 11.54% 그리고 29.11%의 UDP 함량이 증가 하였다. 시험 II는 RSCC system을 이용하여 반추위 내 미생물 발효특성에 대한 시험이 실시되었다. 시험사료는 대조구와 In vitro 시험 중 대조구와 UDP 효과가 높은 LSBM Na 2%, LSBM Sol 2% 그리고 LSBM Heat 2% 처리한 사료 4처리 4반복($4{\times}4$ Latin squire)에 의해 15일간 시험이 실시되었으며, 배양 마지막 3일 동안의 sample을 이용하여 분석을 실시하였다. 전체 배양 기간 중 모든 처리구에서 적응기간 동안 불규칙적인 반추위 미생물 발효 특성을 보였으나 배양 12일 이후 안정된 발효특성을 나타내었다. Sampling 기간 동안의 각 처리간의 평균 pH는 모든 LSBM 처리구에서 대조구보다 높았다(p<0.05). $NH_3$-N 함량, VFA 함량 그리고 반추위 내 미생물 단백질 합성량은 LSBM 처리구가 대조구에 비해 낮은 결과를 나타내었다(p<0.05). UDP 함량은 대조구, LSBM Heat 2%, LSBM Na 2% 그리고 LSBM Sol 2%에서 각 41.55, 43.49, 45.28 그리고 43.52%로 모든 LSBM 처리구가 대조구에 비해 유의하게 높은 경향을 나타내였다(p<0.05). 시험 I과 시험II에서 UDP 함량은 LSBM 처리구에서 lignosulfonate 처리 수준이 증가할수록 증가하는 경향을 나타내었고, 모든 LSBM 처리구는 대조구에 비해 높은 UDP 함량을 나타내었다. 이와 같은 결과는 사료원으로써 대두박에 대한 lignosulfonate 처리가 coating 작용과 열처리에 의한 물리 화학적 효과로 인하여 대두박의 단백질 분해율을 저해 시킨 것으로 사료된다. 그러나 LSBM 처리군 중 건물소화율과 반추위 내 미생물단백질 합성량은 LSBM 2% 처리구에서 가장 높은 결과를 나타내였다. 따라서, 반추가축 사료내 LSBM 첨가가 In vitro와 RSCC system을 이용한 반추위내 미생물발효 특성 시험에서 반추위 내에서 by-pass protein 함량을 증가시키는 결과를 나타내었으며, 추후 착유우를 이용한 LSBM 급여를 시험을 통하여 유단백질 증진효과에 대하여 추가적인 평가가 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Background: The continuing growth of the ethanol industry has generated large amounts of various distillers grains co-products. These are characterized by a wide variation in chemical composition and ruminal degradability. Therefore, their precise formulation in the ruminant diet requires the systematic evaluation of their degradation profiles in the rumen. Methods: Three distillers grains plus soluble co-products (DDGS) namely, corn DDGS, high-protein corn DDGS (HP-DDGS), and wheat DDGS, were subjected to an in situ trial to determine the degradation kinetics of the dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP). Soybean meal (SBM), a feed with highly degradable protein in the rumen, was included as the fourth feed. The four feeds were incubated in duplicate at each time point in the rumen of three ruminally cannulated Hanwoo cattle for 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 h. Results: Wheat DDGS had the highest filterable and soluble A fraction of its DM (37.2 %), but the lowest degradable B (49.5 %; P < 0.001) and an undegradable C fraction (13.3 %; P < 0.001). The filterable and soluble A fraction of CP was greatest with wheat DDGS, intermediate with corn DDGS, and lowest with HP-DDGS and SBM; however, the undegradable C fraction of CP was the greatest with HP-DDGS (41.2 %), intermediate with corn DDGS (2.7 %), and lowest with wheat DDGS and SMB (average 4.3 %). The degradation rate of degradable B fraction ($%\;h^{-1}$) was ranked from highest to lowest as follows for 1) DM: SBM (13.3), wheat DDGS (9.1), and corn DDGS and HP-DDGS (average 5.2); 2) CP: SBM (17.6), wheat DDGS (11.6), and corn DDGS and HP-DDGS (average 4.4). The in situ effective degradability of CP, assuming a passage rate of $0.06h^{-1}$, was the highest (P < 0.001) for SBM (73.9 %) and wheat DDGS (71.2 %), intermediate for corn DDGS (42.5 %), and the lowest for HP-DDGS (28.6 %), which suggests that corn DDGS and HP-DDGS are a good source of undegraded intake protein for ruminants. Conclusions: This study provided a comparative estimate of ruminal DM and CP degradation characteristics for three DDGS co-products and SBM, which might be useful for their inclusion in the diet according to the ruminally undegraded to degraded intake protein ratio.
