Components of cholesterol, glucose, minerals (selenium, Ca, p) and vitamin E in blood and milk were collected and analyzed weekly after calving from a total of 78 Holstein cows. In this study, we examined changes of chemical components, correlations among them, and factors affecting the changes. The results were summarized as follows; 1 Average levels of components in blood during 9 weeks after calving were 178.8 mg/dl, 62.3 mg/dl, 8.9 mg/dl, 7.4 mg/dl, 52.2 ng/ml, $10.3{\mu}g/ml$, 16.3 mg/dl, 15.3 ng/dl, and 15.8 mg/dl for cholesterol, glucose, Ca, P, selenium, vitamin E, BUN (blood urea nitrogen), MSe (milk selenium), and MUN (milk urea nitrogen), respectively. 2. The levels of cholesterol, glucose selenium, vitamin E and MSe tended to increase over time after calving. 3. The estimated correlations among components were negative(-) for cholesterol and p, positive for selenium, and BUN and also positive for BUN and MUN. Glucose showed positive correlations with P and MSe. 4. For factors influencing the changes of components, there were significant differences in glucose and selenium for age, in selenium and vitamin E for parity, in glucose and MSe for milk and in all components except Ca and selenium for feeding grass and hay, respectively. In urea nitrogen, age and parity only showed significant difference in MUN. In conclusion, the results were suggested that changes of blood and milk components depend on feeding during the postpartum. Especially, we could ascertain that selenium in blood and milk is the important factor for the dairy cows after parturition.

Four multiparous lactating Holstein cows fitted with rumen cannulae were fed diets varying in the amount and source of rumen-degradable carbohydrates (starch vs. sucrose) to examine their effects on rumen fermentation, nitrogen metabolism and lactation performance. A $4{\times}4$ Latin square with four diets and four periods of 28 days each was employed. Corn starch and sucrose were added to diets and corn starch was replaced with sucrose at 0 (0 S), 2.5 (2.5 S), 5.0 (5.0 S) 7.5% (7.5 S) of diet dry matter in a total mixed ration (TMR) containing 60% concentrate and 40% forage (DM basis). Replacing corn starch with sucrose did not affect (p>0.05) ruminal pH which averaged 6.41, but the ruminal pH for 7.5 S decreased more rapidly at 2 h after morning feeding compared with other treatments. Sucrose reduced ($p{\leq}0.05$) ruminal $NH_3-N$ concentration (13.90 vs. 17.09 mg/dl) but did not affect peptide-N concentration. There was no dietary effect on total volatile fatty acids (110.53 mmol/L) or the acetate to propionate ratio (2.72). No differences (p>0.05) in molar proportion of most of the individual VFA were found among diets, except for the molar proportion of butyrate that was increased ($p{\leq}0.05$) with the inclusion of sucrose. Total branched chain volatile fatty acids tended to increase ($p{\geq}0.051$) for the control treatment (0 S) compared with the 7.5 S treatment. Dry matter intake, body weight changes and digestibility of DM, OM, CP, NDF and ADF were not affected by treatments. Sucrose inclusion in the total mixed ration did not affect milk yield, but increased milk fat and total solid percentage ($p{\leq}0.05$). Sucrose tended ($p{\geq}0.063$) to increase milk protein percentage (3.28 vs. 3.05) and reduced ($p{\leq}0.05$) milk urea nitrogen concentration (12.75 vs. 15.48 mg/dl), suggesting a more efficient utilization of the rapidly available nitrogen components in the diet and hence improving nitrogen metabolism in the rumen.
