본 시험은 반추위 누관이 시술된 한우 수소 3두를 이용하여 쌀, 옥수수 및 보리의 in situ 분해율과 in vitro 시험으로서 영양소 분해율, 미생물 성장량, pH 변화 및 gas 발생량을 비교분석함으로써 쌀의 사료적 이용성을 평가해 보고자 수행되었다.In situ 건물 및 유기물 소실율은 반추위내 24시간 발효 시, 보리와 쌀은 거의 대부분이 소실된 반면, 옥수수는 약 67%만 소실되어 분해 속도가 매우 느린 것으로 나타났다. 수용성 물질인 ‘a’ 부분은 옥수수, 쌀, 보리 순으로 많았으며, 천천히 분해되는 ‘b’ 부분은 ‘a’ 부분과 정 반대의 경향으로서 ‘b’ 부분의 분해 상수(‘c’ 부분)로부터 시간당 건물과 유기물의 분해속도는 보리의 경우 각각 38.3%, 37.2%로서 쌀(7.7%, 5.6%)이나 옥수수(4.1%, 1.3%)에 비해 매우 빠르게 일어났다. In vitro 건물 및 유기물 분해율은 in situ 분해율에 비해 수준은 현저히 낮았으나, 보리, 쌀, 옥수수 순으로 높아 곡류 간 순서는 일치하였다. In vitro 미생물 성장은 쌀이 옥수수나 보리보다 상대적으로 낮았으나, 가스 발생량은 높게 나타났으며, pH는 발효시간에 따른 저하속도가 쌀에서 가장 느린 것으로 나타났다. 발효시간에 따른 미생물 성장량은 발효 12시간까지 높아졌다가 이후로 감소하였고, 배양액의 pH는 발효초기에는 높았다가 이후로 점차 감소하였으며, gas 발생량은 발효 9시간까지는 빠르게 증가하였다가 이후로 증가폭이 둔화되었다.이상의 결과에서 반추위내 건물과 유기물의 분해율과 발효시간의 경과에 따른 pH의 저하속도 등을 고려하면, 쌀은 옥수수와 함께 반추위내 발효 안정을 위한 에너지원으로서 사용 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The objective of the trial was to study the relationship between the methane ($CH_4$) production and the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) carbohydrate fractions of feeds for cattle and the suitability of CNCPS carbohydrate fractions as the dietary variables in modeling the $CH_4$ production in rumen fermentation. Forty-five rations for cattle with the concentrate/roughage ratios of 10:90, 20:80, 30:70, 40:60, and 50:50 were formulated as feed samples. The Menke and Steingass's gas test was used for the measurement of $CH_4$ production. The feed samples were incubated for 48 h and the $CH_4$ production was analyzed using gas chromatography. Statistical analysis indicated that the $CH_4$ production (mL) was closely correlated with the CNCPS carbohydrate fractions (g), i.e. CA (sugars); $CB_1$ (starch and pectin); $CB_2$ (available cell wall) in a multiple linear pattern: $CH_4=(89.16{\pm}14.93)$ $CA+(124.10{\pm}13.90)$ $CB_1+(30.58{\pm}11.72)$ $CB_2+(3.28{\pm}7.19)$, $R^2=0.81$, p<0.0001, n = 45. Validation of the model using 10 rations indicated that the $CH_4$ production of the rations for cattle could accurately be predicted based on the CNCPS carbohydrate fractions. The trial indicated that the CNCPS carbohydrate fractions CA, $CB_1$ and $CB_2$ were suitable dietary variables for predicting the $CH_4$ production in rumen fermentation in vitro.

비이온성 계면활성제(non-ionic surfactant: NIS) Tween 80의 첨가가 gas 발생량, 각종 기질의 건물 소화율, 섬유소 분해효소의 활력, 미생물 성장률 그리고 미생물의 기질 부착성에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 볏짚, 알팔파 건초, filter paper 그리고 톨페스큐 건초를 공시하여 in vitro시험을 수행하였다. NIS Tween 80을 0.05% (v/v) 수준으로 배지에 첨가하였을 때, in vitro 건물 소화율, cumulative gas 생성량, 미생물 성장량 그리고 섬유소 분해효소의 활력 등 조사항목 모두가 모든 공시된 기질에서 유의적 (P<0.05)으로 증가하였다. 볏짚, 알팔파 건초, filter paper 및 톨페스큐 건초로부터 발생된 in vitro 48시간 배양후의 가스량이 NIS의 첨가로 인하여 무처리구에 비하여 각각 274.8, 235.2, 231.1 및 719.5%가 유의적(P<0.05)으로 증가하였다. Tween 80을 0.05% 수준으로 알팔파 건초 기질에 첨가하여 배양 36시간 후에 섬유소 분해효소의 활력을 측정하였을 때, Avicelase의 경우는 무첨가구와 비교하여 변화가 없었지만 CMCase, xylanase 및 amylase의 활력은 무처리구에 비해 각각 38.1, 121.4 및 38.2%가 증가하였다. 이러한 결과들은 호기성 미생물에서와는 달리 Tween 80을 0.05% 수준으로 배지에 첨가하면 혐기성 미생물의 성장률을 감소시키지 않고 오히려 증가시키며 여러 종류의 섬유소 분해효소의 분비가 촉진될 수 있다는 것을 시사하는 것이다. 전자현미경(SEM) 관찰결과 NIS Tween 80의 첨가가 미생물의 기질 부착성을 증가시키지는 못하였다. 따라서 NIS Tween 80의 첨가로 가스발생량과 in vitro건물 소화율 그리고 섬유소 분해효소의 활력이 증가한 이유는 미생물의 기질 부착성 때문이 아니라는 것을 알 수 있다.. 결론적으로, 불감체중손실과 온열 생리 요인들 간에는 약한 상관이 존재했으나, 피험자들이 온열 쾌적을 유지하는 경우 착용한 의복 종류 및 노출 기온에 상관없이 불감체중손실량은 좁은 범위를 유지했다.것으로 판단된다.$4^{\circ}C$로 저장한 경우 치커리 고유의 초록색과 아삭한 조직감을 유지하고 있어 저온냉수 세척과 tray 포장이 세척 청경채의 선도 유지에 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.>$2.0{\sim}1459.4ppm(303.1{\pm}324.2)$으로 나타났다.다. 4. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 위생교육 매뉴얼을 개발하였다. 위생교육 내용은 4가지 원칙 -개인위생확보, 교차오염방지, 시간온도관리, 냉장관리- 으로 구성하였고, 8영역으로 세분화하였다. 교육 설계방식은 강의식 교육을 위주로 하고, 주제별로, 실연식 교육, 시청각 교육, 토의식 교육을 위한 강의 자료를 마련하였다. 이상의 결과에서 보여 준 레스토랑에서 식중독 예방을 위한 위생관리 활동 내용으로 실천율이 낮은 활동을 규명하고 이 활동에 대한 지속적인 모니터링과 개선활동을 전개한다면 레스토랑의 식중독 예방에 크게 도움일 될 것으로 사료된다. 또한 본 연구에서 개발된 위생교육 자료를 활용한다면, 외식업체의 전반적인 위생수준을 향상시키고 식품의 안전성을 확보하는데 크게 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 최근에 외식업계에서 발생되고 있는 식중독 사고는 이상 기후의 영향이나 시설미비도 그 원인이겠지만, 무엇보다도 중요한 요인은 경영층의 위생에 관한 인식부족, 교육 프로그램의 부재로 사료된다. 그러므로 양적으로 과포화상태에 이르고 있는 외식업계의 질적인 향상을 위해서는 외식업체는 위생교육의 지속적인 실천과 모니터링을 강화하고, 그 결과를 인사고과시스템에 반영하는 통합적인 노력이 요구된다.야 하고, 검사관리를 통해 원재료와 최종제품의 안전성이 확보되어야 한다. 납품업체들의 검사관리 수행도를 높이기 위해서는 검사시설의 구비와 장비의

Thirty-five available feeds were fermented in vitro in order to investigate their soluble total organic carbon (TOCs) and methane ($CH_4$) production rate. A fermentation reactor was designed to capture the $CH_4$ gas emitted and to collect liquor from the reactor during in vitro fermentation. The results showed that $CH_4$ production rate greatly varied among feeds with different ingredients. The lowest $CH_4$-producing feeds were corn gluten feed, brewer's grain, and orchard grass among the energy, protein, and forage feed groups, respectively. Significant differences (p<0.05) were found in digestibility, soluble total organic carbon (TOCs), and $CH_4$ emissions among feeds, during 48 h of in vitro fermentation. Digestibility and TOCs was not found to be related due to different fermentation pattern of each but TOCs production was directly proportional to $CH_4$ production (y = 0.0076x, $r^2$ = 0.83). From this in vitro study, TOCs production could be used as an indirect index for estimation of $CH_4$ emission from feed ingredients.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the nutritive value of selected fruits (pods and seeds) and leaves of acacia tree species namely; Acacia nubica (nubica), Acacia tortilis (tortilis) and Acacia brevispica (brevispica), Acacia reficiens (reficiens) and Acacia senegal (senegal). A wide variability in chemical composition, polyphenolics and gas production was recorded. The crude protein (CP) ranged from 131 to 238 g/kg DM. Neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF) and lignin (ADL) were higher in senegal and significantly different (p<0.05) from other species. The nitrogen bound to fiber tended to be higher in leaves than the fruits, ranging from 2.6 to 11.3 g/kg NDF and 1.6 to 3.2 g/kg ADF. The leaves of reficiens and senegal had higher concentrations of total extractable phenolics (TEPH), total extractable tannins (TET) and total condensed tannins (TCT), but lower in NDF, ADF and ADL than the fruits of nubica, tortilis and brevispica. Mineral concentrations varied among species; all were relatively poor in phosphorus, moderate in calcium and magnesium, and rich in microelements. A significant (p<0.05) variation in gas production after 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h was recorded between species. Nubica had the highest (p<0.05) rate of gas production (0.0925) while the highest potential gas production was recorded in tortilis. A strong negative correlation between TEPH and TET with gas production after 24, 48, 72 and 96 was established (r=-0.72 to -0.82). Crude protein and TCT correlated negatively but also weakly with gas production characteristics. Organic matter digestibility calculated from gas production after 48 h (OMD48) ranged between 465 g/kg DM in reficiens and 611 g/kg DM in tortilis. The results of this study indicate that acacia species have the potential to be used as feed supplements.

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of maturity stage on the nutritive value of wild mustard straw in terms of chemical composition, in situ, in vitro dry matter degradability and calculated ME. The nutritive values of wild mustard, Sinapsis arvensis hays harvested at three stages were evaluated by chemical composition, in vitro gas production and in situ dry matter degradation methods. Gas production or dry matter (DM) degradation were determined at 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h and their kinetics were described using the equation p = a+b(1-e$^{-ct}$). Maturity had a significant effect on both the chemical composition and degradability of wild mustard. Neutral detergent fibre (NDF) and acid detergent fibre (ADF) (p<0.001) increased with increasing maturity whereas the crude protein (CP) (p<0.001) decreased. The gas produced after 96 h incubation ranged between 64.7 and 81.5 ml per 0.200 g of dry matter. The gas production (ml) at all incubation times and estimated parameters decreased with increasing maturity of wild mustard. The gas production at all incubation times and estimated parameters (a, b (a+b), metabolizable energy (ME) and organic matter digestibility (OMD)) were negatively correlated with NDF and ADF. The DM disappearance after 96 h incubation ranged between 50.8 and 76.1%. The in situ DM disappearance at all incubation times and estimated parameters decreased with increasing maturity of wild mustard. The in situ dry matter disappearance at all incubation times and some estimated parameters (c, a, b and effective dry matter degradability (EDMD)) were negatively correlated with NDF and ADF but positively correlated with CP. The nutritive value of wild mustard continually changed as it matured. Wild mustard, harvested at the proper stage of maturity offers considerable potential as a high quality forage for ruminants during the winter feeding period. The present study showed that if higher quality forage is an objective, wild mustard should be harvested at the early flowering stage.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of banana flower powder (BAFLOP) supplementation on gas production kinetics and rumen fermentation efficiency in in vitro incubation with different ratios of roughage to concentrate in swamp buffalo and cattle rumen fluid. Two male, rumen fistulated dairy steers and swamp buffaloes were used as rumen fluid donors. The treatments were arranged according to a $2{\times}2{\times}3$ factorial arrangement in a Completely randomized design by using two ratios of roughage to concentrate (R:C; 75:25 and 25:75) and 3 levels of BAFLOP supplementation (0, 2 and 4% of dietary substrate) into two different kinds of rumen fluid (beef cattle and swamp buffalo). Under this investigation, the results revealed that the rumen ecology was affected by R:C ratio. The pH declined as a result of using high concentrate ratio; however, supplementation of BAFLOP could buffer the pH which led to an improvement of ruminal efficiency. BAFLOP supplementation affected acetic acid (C2) when the proportion of concentrate was increased. However, there were no effect on total volatile fatty acid (TVFA) and butyric acid (C4) by BAFLOP supplementation. The microbial community was affected by BAFLOP supplementation, especially the bacterial population. As revealed by real-time PCR, the populations of F. succinogenes and R. albus were reduced by the high concentrate treatments while that of R. flavafaciens were increased. The populations of three dominant cellulolytic bacteria were enhanced by BAFLOP supplementation, especially on high concentrate diet. BAFLOP supplementation did not influence the ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3$-N) concentration, while R:C did. In addition, the in vitro digestibility was improved by either R:C or BAFLOP supplementation. The BAFLOP supplementation showed an effect on gas production kinetics, except for the gas production rate constant for the insoluble fraction (c), while treatments with high concentrate ratio resulted in the highest values. In addition, BAFLOP tended to increase gas production. Based on this study, it could be concluded that R:C had an effect on rumen ecology both in buffalo and cattle rumen fluid and hence, BAFLOP could be used as a rumen buffering agent for enhancing rumen ecology fed on high concentrate diet. It is recommended that level of BAFLOP supplementation should be at 2 to 4% of total dry matter of substrate. However, in vivo trials should be subsequently conducted to investigate the effect of BAFLOP in high concentrate diets on rumen ecology as well as ruminant production.

The objective of this study was to determine the roughage to concentrate (R:C) ratio with rain tree pod meal (RPM) supplementation on in vitro fermentation using gas production technique. The experiment design was a 6${\times}$4 factorial arrangement in a CRD. Factor A was 6 levels of R:C ratio (100:0, 80:20, 60:40, 40:60, 20:80 and 0:100) and factor B was 4 levels of RPM (0, 4, 8 and 12 mg). It was found that gas kinetic, extent rate (c) was linearly increased (p<0.01) with an increasing level of concentrate while cumulative gas production (96 h) was higher in R:C of 40:60. In addition, interaction of R:C ratio and RPM level affected $NH_3-N$ and IVDMD and were highest in R:C of 0:100 with 0, 4 mg of RPM and 40:60 with 8 mg of RPM, respectively. Moreover, interaction of R:C ratio and RPM level significantly increased total volatile fatty acids and propionate concentration whereas lower acetate, acetate to propionate ratios and $CH_4$ production in R:C of 20:80 with 8 mg of RPM. Moreover, the two factors, R:C ratio and RPM level influenced the protozoal population and the percentage of methanogens in the total bacteria population. In addition, the use of real-time PCR found that a high level of concentrate in the diet remarkably decreased three cellulolytic bacteria numbers (F. succinogenes, R. flavefaciens and R. albus). Based on this study, it is suggested that the ratio of R:C at 40:60 and RPM level at 12 mg could improve ruminal fluid fermentation in terms of reducing fermentation losses, thus improving VFA profiles and ruminal ecology.

국내산 고간류의 영양학적 평가는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구는 압력센서를 이용하여 국내산 고간류의 가스발생량과 반추위발효산물과의 상관관계를 비교하고자 실시하였다. 가스발생량 측정장치는 압력센서, AD board, LED 모니터 및 real-time graphics가 설치된 컴퓨터로 구성되었다. 가스발생량과 건물소화율은 지수방정식 Pt = a + b ($1-e^{-ct}$)을 기초로 추정하였다.초기 가스발생량은 볏짚이 가장 높았으며 보리짚, 밀짚순이었다. 시간당 분해상수는 3.8, 2.5, 2.5%$h^{－1}$로서 볏짚, 보리짚, 밀짚순이었다. 전체 휘발성 지방산은 초기 12시간에 유의한 차이가 있었지만 배양 72시간 이후의 농도는 세 처리구에서 비슷한 결과를 나타냈다. 가스발생량과 건물소화율의 상관지수($r^2$)는 0.76-0.83으로 밀접한 관계가 있었으며 또한 휘발성지방산과 가스발생량의 상관지수는 0.91-0.98로 매우 밀접한 관계가 있었다. 따라서 가스발생량, 건물소화율 및 휘발성 지방산의 단일상관관계는 고간류의 in vivo 소화율에서도 유사할 것으로 보인다.

Objective: The present study was conducted to examine the gas production, fermentation characteristics, nutrient degradation, and methanogenic community composition of a rumen fluid culture with Broussonetia papyrifera (B. papyrifera) subjected to ensiling or steam explosion (SE) pretreatment. Methods: Fresh B. papyrifera was collected and pretreated by ensiling or SE, which was then fermented with ruminal fluids as ensiled B. papyrifera group, steam-exploded B. papyrifera group, and untreated B. papyrifera group. The gas and methane production, fermentation characteristics, nutrient degradation, and methanogenic community were determined during the fermentation. Results: Cumulative methane production was significantly improved with SE pretreatment compared with ensiled or untreated biomass accompanied with more volatile fatty acids production. After 72 h incubation, SE and ensiling pretreatments decreased the acid detergent fiber contents by 39.4% and 22.9%, and neutral detergent fiber contents by 10.6% and 47.2%, respectively. Changes of methanogenic diversity and abundance of methanogenic archaea corresponded to the variations in fermentation pattern and methane production. Conclusion: Compared with ensiling pretreatment, SE can be a promising technique for the efficient utilization of B. papyrifera, which would contribute to sustainable livestock production systems.
