The effects of monensin, Tween 80 and exogenous fibrolytic enzymes on ruminal fermentation and animal performance were studied in vitro and in vivo. In Expt 1, the effects of the surfactant Tween 80 (0.2% wt/wt, DM basis) on ruminal fermentation of alfalfa, corn and orchardgrass silages were investigated using in vitro gas production techniques. Tween 80 did not affect (p>0.05) cumulative gas production at 24 h, but it reduced (p<0.05) the lag in fermentation of all three silages. With corn silage and orchardgrass silage, gas production rates and concentrations of total volatile fatty acids (VFA) were increased (p<0.05) by Tween 80; with alfalfa silage, they were reduced (p<0.05). Tween 80 increased (p<0.05) the proportion of propionate in total VFA, and reduced (p<0.05) acetate to propionate ratios (A:P) with all three silages. In Expt 2, exogenous fibrolytic enzymes (E; at 0, 37.5 or 75 g/tonne DM), monensin (M; at 0 or 25 ppm and Tween 80 (T; at 0 or 2 L/tonne DM) were added alone or in combination to backgrounding and finishing diets fed to 320 crossbred steers in a feeding trial with a $3{\times}2{\times}$2 factorial arrangement of treatments. The backgrounding and finishing diets contained barley grain and barley silage in ratios of 57.8:42.2 and 93.5:6.5 (DM basis), respectively. Added alone, none of the additives affected DM intake (p>0.1) in the backgrounding or in the finishing period, but interactive $M{\times}T$ effects were observed in the finishing period (p=0.02) and overall (p=0.04). In the finishing period, T without M tended to reduce DM intake (p=0.11), but T with M increased (p=0.05) DM intake. Monensin increased average daily gain (ADG) during backgrounding (p=0.07) and finishing (p=0.01), and this ionophore also improved overall feed efficiency (p=0.02). Warm carcass weight was increased (p<0.001) by M, but dressing percentage was reduced (p=0.07). In the backgrounding period, T increased ADG by 7% (p=0.06). Enzymes increased (p=0.07) ADG by 5 and 6% (low and high application rates, respectively) during backgrounding, but did not affect (p>0.10) ADG during finishing, or overall feed efficiency. Whereas T enhanced the positive effects of M on ADG during backgrounding (p=0.04) and overall (p=0.05), it had no impact (p>0.1) on the effects of E. Interactions between M and T suggest that the surfactant may have potential for enhancing the positive effects of monensin on beef production, but this requires further research.

This study was conducted to assess the potential of using NIRS to accurately determine the chemical composition and fermentation parameters in fresh coarse sorghum and sudangrass silage. Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) has been increasingly used as a rapid and accurate method to analyze the quality of cereals and dried animal forage. However, silage analysis by NIRS has a limitation in analyzing dried and ground samples in farm-scale applications because the fermentative products are lost during the drying process. Fresh coarse silage samples were scanned at 1 nm intervals over the wavelength range of 680~2500 nm, and the optical data were obtained as log 1/Reflectance (log 1/R). The spectral data were regressed, using partial least squares (PLS) multivariate analysis in conjunction with first and second order derivatization, with a scatter correction procedure (standard normal variate and detrend (SNV&D)) to reduce the effect of extraneous noise. The optimum calibrations were selected on the basis of minimizing the standard error of cross validation (SECV). The results of this study showed that NIRS predicted the chemical constituents with a high degree of accuracy (i.e. the correlation coefficient of cross validation ($R^2{_{cv}}$) ranged from 0.86~0.96), except for crude ash which had an $R^2{_{cv}}$ of 0.68. Comparison of the mathematical treatments for raw spectra showed that the second-order derivatization procedure produced the best result for all the treatments, except for neutral detergent fiber (NDF). The best mathematical treatment for moisture, acid detergent fiber (ADF), crude protein (CP) and pH was 2,16,16 respectively while the best mathematical treatment for crude ash, lactic acid and total acid was 2,8,8 respectively. The calibrations of fermentation products produced poorer calibrations (RPD < 2.5) with acetic and butyric acid. The pH, lactic acid and total acids were predicted with considerable accuracy at $R^2{_{cv}}$ 0.72~0.77. This study indicated that NIRS calibrations based on fresh coarse sorghum and sudangrass silage spectra have the capability of assessing the forage quality control

Objective: The primary goal was to identify the effectiveness of chemical or biological additives in delaying the deterioration of early-harvested wilted rye silage after exposure to air. Methods: Rye harvested as a whole plant at the early heading stage was wilted for 24 h. The wilted forage was divided into treatments including sodium diacetate (SDA) at 3 (SDA3) and 6 g/kg (SDA6), Lactobacillus plantarum (LP), L. buchneri (LB), or their equal mixture (LP+LB) at 1×10⁶ colony-forming unit/g fresh matter. Results: After 60 d of conservation in 20-L silos, lactic acid was greater in LP and LP+LB silages than other treatments (102 vs 90.2 g/kg dry matter [DM]). Acetic acid was greatest in SDA6 (32.0 g/kg DM) followed by LB (26.1 g/kg DM) and was lowest in LP treatment (4.73 g/kg DM). Silage pH was lower with microbial inoculation and the lowest and highest values were observed in LP and untreated silages, respectively. After 60 d, neutral detergent fiber concentration was lowest in SDA6 silages, resulting in the greatest in vitro DM digestibility (846 g/kg DM). Aerobic stability was longest in SDA6 (176 h) followed by LB treatment (134 h). Instability after aerobiosis was greatest in LP silages (68 h), about 8 h less than untreated silages. After aerobic exposure, yeast and mold numbers were lowest in SDA6 silages, resulting in DM loss minimization. Exhaustion of acetic acid and lactic acid after aerobic exposure was lowest with SDA6 but greatest with untreated and LP silages. Conclusion: Treatment of early-cut wilted rye forage with SDA at 6 g/kg resulted in silages with higher feeding value and fermentation quality, and substantially delayed deterioration after aerobic exposure, potentially qualifying SDA at this load for promotion of silage quality and delaying aerobic spoilage of early-harvested (low DM) rye forage.

The pH value of grass silages is one important parameter to determine the quality of the forages. In an attempt to use NIRS spectra taken for other quality parameter of grass silage it has been shown that a good correlation between NIR spectra of the dried forage and pH value of the fresh forage could be determined. Further investigations revealed that the B coefficients of the pH value calibration were almost the same as the B coefficients of the sugar calibration multiplied with -1. And indead the pH value - in the fresh sample material - of the calibration set is strongly correlated with the sugar concentration - in the dried sample material. It is concluded that next to scientific tools in research the scientist and the user of NTRS equippment has to scrutinze his own work. Examples are given. NIRS is a powerfull technique, but pitfalls are present in surplus.

This study was carried out to investigate the incorporation effect of green manure crops (GMC) such as the hairy vetch on improvement of soil environment in reclaimed land during silage corn cultivation over the past two years. Plots consisted of conventional fertilization (CF) and incorporation of GMC were divided by addition rate of nitrogen fertilizer (100 kg $ha^{-1}$) with 30 - 100% of non nitrogen fertilization (NNF). Soil physico-chemical properties and growth and yield potential of silage corn were examined. The tested soils showed strong alkali and saline properties with low contents of organic matter and available phosphate while contents of exchangeable sodium and magnesium were high. Soil salinity increased during cultivation of summer crop. However, corn was not affected by salt content. The fresh weight of GMC at incorporation time was 18,345 kg $ha^{-1}$. Content of total nitrogen was 3.09% and the C/N ratio was 12.8 at incorporation time. Fresh and dry matter yield of silage corn were higher in the order of N30% reduction, CF, N50% reduction, N70% reduction, N100% reduction and NNF. Fresh and dry matter yield potential of silage corn for N30% reduction were comparable to those of CF. Bulk density of the soil decreased with incorporation of GMC, while porosity was increased. The soil pH decreased while content of exchangeable calcium, available phosphate, and organic matter increased. Also contents of exchangeable sodium and potassium decreased with incorporation of GMC. The data indicate that incorporation of hairy vetch can improve soil physical and chemical properties and reduce nitrogen fertilizer application especially for alkali saline reclaimed soil such as Saemangeum reclaimed land.

본 시험은 1998 년 축산기술연구소 초지사료과 시험포장에서 호밀 라운드베일 사일리지 제조시 수확시 숙기별로 발효가 진행됨에 따라 사일리지의 품질에 미치는 영향을 비교하기 위하여 수행되었다. 시험 설계는 분할구 배치법으로 주구는 수잉기, 출수기 및 개화기에 수확하는 수확시 숙기를 두고 세구로는 발효 경과 일수 (1, 2, 3. 5, 10, 30, 45 및 60 일)를 두고 3 반복으로 수행하였으며 라운드베일 사일리지 제조시 호밀은 수잉기에는 1일, 출수기 및 개화기에는 0.5일간 예건하였다. 최종 pH는 개화기 > 수잉기 > 출수기의 순으로 나타났으며 개화기는 pH의 감소가 발효초기에 일어났으나 수잉기와 출수기는 1~2일 늦어짐을 알 수 있었다. 암모니아태 질소 함량은 수잉기에서 놀은 비율로 나타났고 발효가 진행됨에 따라 증가되었다. 그러나 출수기에서는 발효 30일째까지 감소한 후 45일이후에 다시 증가하였다. 발효단계별 온도에 있어서 내부온도는 기상의 영향을 받지 않고 초기 3$0^{\circ}C$ 부근까지 상승한 후 계속 감소하였으나 외부온도는 10일 후부터 기상에 따라 변화하는 경향을 보여주었다. 초산 함량은 5일째까지는 수확시 숙기에 따른 차이가 없었으나 10일 후부터는 수잉기에서 높아졌으며 낙산 함량도 수잉기는 5일째, 출수기는 10일 후부터 발생되었으며 젖산 함량은 초기 l~2% 내외에서 6~8% 내외까지 지속적으로 증가되었다. 젖산균수는 출수기와 개화기는 5일째 그리고 수잉기는 10일째에 가장 높은 수치를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 호밀 라운드베일 사일리지의 발효는 초기 5일 이내에 대부분이 일어나며 따라서 초기 발효조건을 맞추는 것이 고품질 사일리지를 제조할 수 있는 가장 효과적인 방법이라 할 수 있다. 종이라 판단된다.세포 모두에서 endogenous RXR의 발현이 일어남을 확인하였고 RXR expression plasmid를 transfection시켰을 때 두 세포 모두에서 단백질의 발현이 현저하게 증가되었다. Constitutive Androstane Receptor (CAR)에 의한 CYP2B의 PBRU 활성효과를 다르게 분화된 세포에서 차이가 일어나는지를 비교하기 위하여 CAR에 의해 매개되는 PBRU의 transactivation효과를 Hep G2와 COS세포에서 조사하였다. Hep G2 세포에서는 transfection된 CAR의 발현에 의해 firefly luciferase 보고단백질의 활성이 약 12배 증가하였다. CAR 발현유전자를 15 ng transfection하였을 때 주어진 보고유전자의 양에 대하여 최대반응을 나타내었고 CYP2B1PBRU가 제거된 CYP2C1 promotor/firefly luciferase를 보고유전자로 사용하였을 때는 CAR에 의한 luciferase의 활성이 나타나지 않았다. Hep G2와는 달리, COS세포에서는 transfection된 CAR의 발현이 PBRU에 의한 firefly luciferase보고단백질의 발현에 영향을 주지 못하였다. 이러한 결과들은 분화된 세포의 종류에 따라서 constitutive androstane receptor의 CYP2BPBRU 활성효과가 다르게 나타날 수 있음을 제시할 뿐만 아니라, 간세포에서 Phenobarbital에 의한 PBRU의 활성유도에 영향을 주는 endogenous 매개 인자들 중 CAR와 RXR과는 다른 전사조절인자들이 필요로 하며 이러한 인자들의 발현이 콩팥 세포에서는 다르게 존재함을 시사한다.", including parameters affecting the

Livestock production costs are heavily influenced by the cost of feed, The use of domestically grown forages is more desirable for livestock feed production. As part of this study, triticale, which is an extremely palatable and easily cultivable crop in Korea, was used to produce low moisture silage bales with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and then stored for different periods. We examined the nutrient content of silage, such as crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF), as well as their organic acids, including lactic acid, acetic acid, butyric acid, at different storage periods. The nutrient content of silages, such as crude protein, ADF, and NDF, did not change significantly throughout storage periods. Organic acid data indicated that lactic acid concentrations increased with increasing moisture contents and storage periods up to nine months. However, further extending storage to 12 months resulted in a reduction in the lactic acid content of all silages as well as an increase in their pH. Based on the present results, it suggested that the production of low moisture silage with the LAB may be able to preserve and maintain its quality without altering its nutritional composition. Also, the lactate content of the silage remained significant for at least nine months.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding glucose (G), sorbic acid (S), pre-fermented juice of epiphytic lactic acid bacteria (FJLB) and their combinations on the fermentation qualities and residual mono-and di-saccharides compositions of guineagrass silage. The additives used in this experiment were 1% glucose, 0.1% sorbic acid and FJLB at a theoretical application rate of 9.0${\times}$105 CFU $g^{-1}$ on the fresh weight basis of guineagrass, respectively. There was a total of eight treatments in this experiment: (1) C (without additives), (2) FJLB, (3) S, (4) G, (5) FJLB+S, (6) FJLB+G, (7) S+G, (8) FJLB+S+G. After 30 days of storage, the silos were opened for chemical analyses. Based on the results, all additives were efficient in improving the fermentation quality of guineagrass silage. This was well indicated by significantly (p<0.05) lower pH and BA content and significantly (p<0.05) higher LA content in the treated silages except for the FJLB than in the C. However, there was only a slight increase in LA for the FJLB as compared with the C, which might be due to the low WSC content of the original guineagrass (34.4 g $kg^{-1}$). When the FJLB+S and FJLB+G were added, there were significant (p<0.05) decreases in pH and significant (p<0.05) increases in LA as compared with the FJLB alone. This indicated that the G, S and FJLB were of synergestic effects on the silage fermentation quality. The G combination treatments including the G alone showed large improvements in the fermentation quality as compared with the treatments without the G. This suggested that adding fermentable substrates (G) to plant materials such as guineagrass, which contain low WSC, intermediate population of epiphytic LAB, CP and DM content, is more important and efficient for improving the fermentation quality of silages than adding a number of species of domestic LAB (FJLB) and aerobic bacteria inhibitor (S).

본 연구에서는 타피오카 주정박에 인삼박을 혼합하여 사일리지를 제조하였을 때, 사일리지의 품질 (시험 I)과 건물 섭취량 및 소화율 (시험 II)에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 사일리지 조제시 수분함량을 낮추기 위하여 소맥피를 10% 수준으로 첨가하였으며, 인삼박의 혼합비율은 원물기준으로 0, 15 및 30% 수준 (3 처리)으로 하였다. 처리당 5반복으로 20kg 씩 비닐백에 넣고 공기를 배제하여 포장한 후 $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$에서 30일간 숙성시켜 공시하였다. 시험 II의 소화 시험에서는 10개월령의 재래산양 수컷 12두 (평균체중 14 kg)를 공시하여서 처리당 4반복이 되게 하였다. 7일 동안의 적응기간을 거친 후, 5일간 소화율을 조사하였던 바, 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 인삼박의 혼합 비율이 증가함에 따라 조단백질, NDF 및 ADF의 양이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 특히 인삼박 30% 첨가구는 인상박 무첨가구와 인삼박 15% 침가구에 비하여 유의하게 높은 결과를 나타내었다 (P<0.05). 그리고 조지방 함량과 hemicellulose 함량은 처리구간에 유의한 차이가 인정되지 않았다. 2. pH는 인삼박을 혼합하므로서 유의하게 감소하였으며, 인삼박 처리구간에 는 유의한 차이가 인정되지 않았다. 젖산 함량은 인삼박 혼합비율이 증가함에 따라 유의하게 많아졌으며(P<0.05), 총산도 인삼박 첨가구가 무첨가구에 비하여 유의하게 많은 결과를 나타냈다. 초산은 인삼박 30% 첨가구가 유의하게 적었다. 한편 낙산은 인삼박 첨가구가 무첨가구에 비하여 유의하게 적었다(P<0.05). 3. 사일리지의 섭취량은 인삼박 첨가구가 무첨가구 보다 유의하게 많았다. 건물 소화율은 인삼박을 많이 혼합할수록 증가하였다. 위의 결과로 볼 때 주정박에 인삼박을 혼합하여 사일리지를 조제하는 것은 주정박 만으로 조제할 때 보다 더 좋은 품질의 사일리지를 만들 수 있으며, 기타 유사 재료에 대해서도 광범위한 적용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.
