  • Twenty crossbred (Yorkshire ${\times}$ Landrace) gestating sows were used to determine the effects of Moringa Oleifera leaf (MOL) supplementation in lactating sow diets with or without banana peel powder (BPP) on reproductive performance, fecal moisture content, rectal temperature and hormone profile. The treatments were as follows: 1) CON (control diet), 2) M1 (control diet + 0.5% MOL), 3) M2 (control diet + 1.0% MOL), 4) M3 (control diet + 0.75% MOL and 0.75% BPP), and 5) M4 (control diet + 1.5% MOL and 1.5% BPP). The diets was fed from da 107 of gestation to weaning. MOL and BPP supplementation decreased (p < 0.05) the fecal moisture content compared with that of the CON at day 0 and 7 after farrowing, and 1.0% supplementation of MOL also decreased (p < 0.05) the fecal moisture content at day 14 after farrowing. On farrowing day, MOL supplementation decreased (p < 0.05) the blood cortisol and norepinephrine concentrations compared with the CON. In conclusion, the results of this study show that MOL supplementation decreased the fecal moisture content and plasma concentrations of cortisol and norepinephrine, and MOL and BPP supplementation also decreased the fecal moisture content in lactating sows.

  • Juice Valley and Gogu Valley were administered to twelve healthy young volunteers for 4 weeks to study their clinical effects on human intestinal microflora. Changes in fecal microflora, fecal moisture, and fecal pH were observed for Juice Valley intake. Administration of Juice Valley significantly increased numbers of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus from 8.69 and 7.02 to 10.89 and 9.02 (Log CFU/g wet feces), respectively, whereas those of Clostridium perfringens and Escherichia coli decreased. Moisture content of feces increased, and fecal pH decreased after 4 weeks of Juice Valley intake, intake of Gogu Valley slightly increased growth responses of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus and decreased growth responses of C. perfringens and E. coli. Su-mi potato, as a reference, had no effect on Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus numbers. This study confirmed Juice Valley has better effects than Gogu Valley and Su-mi, and has important role on growth promotion and inhibition of human intestinal bacteria.

  • An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of dietary oligosaccharides on performance and intestinal microbial populations of piglets. Ten litters of piglets were assigned to five groups randomly, with two litters per group. The control group was fed with corn-soybean basal diet. Oligosaccharides was added to the basal diet at the level of 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.35% respectively to form four experimental diets. The experiment was conducted with two periods. The first period (suckling period) was from 7 to 28 days of age and the second period (weanling period) was from 28 to 56 days of age. Fresh fecal samples were collected at 21 days of age and assayed for Escherichia coli concentration, pH and moisture content. Three pigs per group were slaughtered at 42 days of age and cecum, colon, and rectum content samples were collected and assayed immediately for Escherichia coli and Bifidobacterium concentration, pH and moisture content. The results showed that dietary oligosacchrides decreased fecal Escherichia coli population and pH significantly (p 0.05), but did not affect performance and fecal moisture content during suckling period. 0.1% oligosaccharides for weanling pigs increased growth and improved feed conversion ratio together with a reduction of diarrhea (p 0.05), but 0.35% oligosaccharides did not affect growth performance. 0.1% and 0.2% oligosaccharides for weanling pigs had a suppression to Escherichia coli colonization in rectum and an enrichment to Bifidobacterium in colon (p 0.05). Oligosaccharides decreased significantly (p<0.05) rectum moisture content, but did not affect cecum, colon and rectum pH.

  • This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of magnesium sulfate ($MgSO_4$) during late gestation and lactation on sow and litter performance, fecal moisture, blood biochemistry parameters, immunoglobulin levels and milk composition in sows. Forty-eight sows ($Yorkshire{\times}Landrace$, 4th to 5th parity) were randomly allocated to 1 of 4 dietary treatments supplemented with 0, 200, 400, or 600 mg/kg $MgSO_4$ (n = 12). The experiment started on day 90 of gestation and continued through day 21 of lactation. Blood samples were collected on day 107 of gestation, day 0 (farrowing) and 21 (weaning) of lactation for the analyses of the blood biochemistry parameters and immunoglobulin levels. The colostrum and milk samples were obtained on day 0 and 14 of lactation, respectively. Fecal samples were collected from the sows on day 107 of gestation as well as day 7 and 20 of lactation to determine fecal moisture content. The results showed that the survival percentage of piglets and the litter weight at weaning were decreased linearly (p<0.05) and other parameters of the sow or litter performance were not influenced (p>0.05) by $MgSO_4$ supplementation. The fecal moisture content of the sows were increased (p<0.05) linearly as dietary $MgSO_4$ increased on day 7 and 20 of lactation. Supplementation with $MgSO_4$ increased the plasma magnesium (Mg) level linearly (p<0.05) and had a trend to increase total protein level (p>0.05 and p<0.10). However, an increase in the dietary $MgSO_4$ level resulted in a linear decrease in the colostrum fat content (p<0.05). Dietary $MgSO_4$ supplementation enhanced the immunoglobulin G (IgG) level (linear, p<0.05) in plasma on day of farrowing and immunoglobulin A (IgA) level in colostrum (quadratic, p<0.05) and milk (linear, p<0.05) of the sows. These results indicated that supplementation with $MgSO_4$ during late gestation and lactation may have the potential to prevent sow constipation, but may also result in some negative effects.

  • Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) 섭취에 의한 장내 유익세균의 증식촉진 효과를 실험적으로 검증하기 위하여 건강한 성인 남자 5명에게 FOS를 4주동안 매일 8g씩 점심 식사 후에 섭취하도록 하였다. 시험 대상자로부터 매주 1회 분변을 수거하여 분변의 pH, 수분함량, Bifidobacteria 수, Lactobacilli 수, Coliforms 수를 측정하여 FOS 섭취에 의한 분변균총과 분변성상의 변화를 알아보았다. FOS의 섭취전 4주간을 control기간(평상시)으로 하였고 FOS 섭취기간과 FOS 섭취중단기간을 각각 4주로 하였다. 평상시 분변 수분함량은 $81.77{\pm}1.93%$이었으며, FOS의 섭취에 의하여 수분함량이 증가하였는데 4주째는 $84.66{\pm}1.00%$로 평상시의 분변 수분함량과 통계적 유의차가 인정되었으며(p<0.05), 이러한 수분함량의 증가현상은 FOS의 섭취를 중단한 후 4주동안 지속되었다. 평상시의 분변 pH는 $6.56{\pm}0.09$이었고 ,FOS의 섭취동안 pH가 유의하게 감소하여 4주후 $6.27{\pm}0.05$이었다. FOS의 계속적인 섭취가 분변의 pH를 현저하게 감소시켰으며 이와같은 분변의 pH 감소는 FOS의 섭취를 중단한 후에도 4주동안 지속되었다. 평상시의 분변 1 g중의 Bifidobacteria수는 $7.88{\pm}1.43(log_{10})$이었으며 FOS섭취에 의하여 2주째에는 $8.67{\pm}1.60$, 4주째에는 $9.22{\pm}0.53$으로서 평상시보다 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하였으나(p<0.05), FOS의 섭취를 중단한 후에는 거의 평상시 수준으로 환원되었다. FOS섭취 전인 평상시의 Lactobacilli수는 $6.76{\pm}1.34$였으나 FOS의 섭취에 의하여 균수가 점차 증가하였는데 3주째에 $7.67{\pm}1.32$, 4주째에 $8.15{\pm}1.05$를 나타내어 평상시 보다 유의하게 증가하였다(p<0.05). 평상시의 Colifoms수는 $6.65{\pm}1.03$이었으며 FOS의 섭취에 의한 통계적 유의성은 없었다.

  • This experiment examined the effects of feeding Aspergillus oryzae (AO) culture to laying hens, on fecal microbial populations, fecal pH and moisture content, egg quality, and metabolizabilities of several nutrients. Sixteen commercial 38-wk-old laying hens were randomly allotted to four diets: control; with 0.15% locally produced AO culture; with 0.3% locally produced AO culture, and; or with 0.3% imported AO. Each treatment consisted of four replicates (cages) containing one bird per cage according to a completely randomized design. After 4 wk, AO were recovered in the feces of birds fed the AO diets, indicating that AO might pass through the fore-gut alive and become active in the hind gut. The number of Lactobacillus spp. in feces was higher in all treated groups than that of the control, indicating that AO would provide a beneficial environment for the Lactobacillus spp. to proliferate in the intestine. The number of fecal E. coli was significantly reduced by the addition of AO. A similar trend was also found for aerobic bacteria. Although not significant, fecal moisture contents tended to be reduced by the addition of AO. Fecal pH was not significantly different among the treatments. The addition of AO did not affect the various economic traits of eggs. Metabolizabilities of gross energy and dry matter measured during the 5th wk were increased by the AO supplementation. It appears that AO culture alone could be used as a probiotic supplement for layers.

  • Effects of Dasom Valley and Bora Valley on fecal microflora, fecal moisture, and fecal pH of twelve healthy human volunteers were investigated. Numbers of Bifidobacterium, Clostridium perfringens, Escherichia coli, and Lactobacillus of control group were $9.24{\pm}0.63$, $4.44{\pm}1.21$, $7.75{\pm}0.38$, and $6.98{\pm}0.81$ (Log CFU/g wet feces), respectively. During administration of Dasom Valley, numbers of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus were $10.70{\pm}0.44$ and $8.84{\pm}0.77$, whereas those of C. perfringens and E. coli were $2.96{\pm}1.50$ and $6.69{\pm}0.29$, respectively. Administration of Dasom Valley significantly increased growth responses of beneficial bacteria, Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, whereas those of harmful bacteria, C. perfringens and E. coli, significantly decreased. Moisture content of feces increased and fecal pH decreased with intake of Dasom Valley. Intake of Bora Valley slightly increased numbers of Bifidbacterium and Lactobacillus and slightly decreased those of C. perfringens and E. coli. Results indicate Dasom Valley has greater intestinal-modulating effect than Bora Valley and Atlantic. Daily intake of Dasom Valley may normalize disturbed physiological functions, resulting in improvement of growth and composition of microbial community within intestinal tract.

  • 저분자 alginate인 HAG-10, HAG-50, HAG-100 및 alginate를 랫드에 장기간 섭취시켰을 때, 분변의 무게와 수분함량, 단백질과 지방함량, pH, VBN 및 단쇄지방산을 측정하여 소화생리특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 검토하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 랫드분변의 무게와 수분함량의 변화는 alginate에서 가장 높은 증가를 보였고, 다음으로 HAG-100, HAG-50이었으며 HAG-10은 투여전과 거의 변화가 없었다. 분변의 단백질과 지방함량은 $5\%$ HAG-50에서 가장 높았고, 그 소화율은 $5\%$$10\%$ HAG-50에서 유의적으로 현저히 저하하였다. 분변의 pH는 $5\%$$10\%$ HAG-50에서 급격하게 저하하였으나, $10\%$ HAG-100과 alginate에서는 오히려 급격히 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. VBN은 $10\%$ HAG-10, HAG-50 모두 그리고 $1\%$$5\%$ HAG-100에서 뚜렷한 저하를 보였으나, $10\%$ HAG-100 및 $5\%$$10\%$ alginate는 반대로 급격히 증가하였다. 단쇄지방산의 변화는 $5\%$$10\%$ HAG-50에서 n-butyric acid가 증가하였고, propionic acid와 acetic acid는 반대로 현저히 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로부터, HAG-50은 랫드 분변의 pH와 VBN을 현저히 저하시켰으며, 단쇄지방산중 n-butyric acid를 증가시키고 propionic acid와 acetic acid를 유의적으로 감소시켰으므로, 랫드의 소화생리특성을 개선시키는 데 있어서 효과적인 저분자 alginate라고 사료된다.

  • 전 세계적으로 가축분뇨를 농경지에 시용하는 것은 작물과 토양에 양분을 공급하는 측면에서 오래 전부터 이용되어 왔으며, 최근 들어서는 자원을 재순환하기 위한 측면으로 이용되고 있다. 그러나, 환경적인 측면에서 가축분뇨를 농경지에 시용하였을 때 미생물적 평가나 규제기준은 비용과 시간이 많이 요구되어 우리나라에서는 이에 대한 연구가 수행되지 못한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구는 밭토양에서 토양수분과 온도조건에 따른 분변성 대장균의 사멸율을 조사하여 분변성 대장균이 외부 환경에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 수준을 평가하고자 수행하였다. 시료는 토양수분조건(10, 35, 65, 80%) 및 온도조건 (20, 25, $30^{\circ}C$)별로 정해진 기간 (3, 7, 14, 21, 28일) 동안 배양되었으며 각각의 시료에 포함된 대장균의 수는 plating method 를 이용하여 측정되었다. 분산분석을 통한 측정자료의 통계분석 결과, 분변성 대장균의 생존에는 토양수분함량과 온도가 주 요인이었는데, 특히 토양수분함량이 감소할수록 그리고 온도가 증가할수록 E. coli의 사멸율은 직선적으로 증가하였다. 또한, 토양수분 조건과 온도조건 중에서 분변성 대장균의 사멸율은 온도조건에 더 상관이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 모든 온도조건에서 10%의 토양수분조건에서 분변성 대장균의 사멸율이 높았다. 이는 토양수분이 E. coli의 사멸에 제한적인 요인으로 작용하였음을 의미한다. 따라서, 본 연구는 가축분뇨를 농경지에 시용할 때 인체의 위해성과 외부 환경의 건전성을 유지하기 위해서는 고온 저습한 토양조건에서 시용하여야 한다는 현실적인 가이드라인을 제시하고자 한다.
