The aim of the study was to assess the information content of volatile fatty acid parameters for the differential diagnosis of infected and sterile pancreatic necrosis. The work is based on the results of examination and treatment of 34 patients with pancreatic necrosis. The analysis of concentrations of volatile fatty acids: acetic, propionic, butyric and isovaleric was carried out on an automated gas chromatograph «Crystallux-4000» with a capillary column «HP-FFAP» and flame ionization detector. The indicators of acetic, propionic, butyric, isovaleric acid and the sum of volatile fatty acids are statistically significantly higher in patients with infected pancreatic necrosis compared with the indicators of volatile fatty acids in patients with sterile pancreatic necrosis. Volatile fatty acid values can be used for the differential diagnosis of infected and sterile pancreatic necrosis

The aim of the study was to assess the informative value of volatile fatty acid parameters for the differential diagnosis of infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN), complicated by retroperitoneal cellulitis. The work was based on the results of examination and treatment of 44 patients with infected pancreatic necrosis. The analysis of concentrations of volatile fatty acids: acetic, propionic, butyric and isovalerianic was carried out on a Kristallux-4000 automated gas chromatograph with an HP-FFAP capillary column and a flame ionization detector. The indicators of acetic acid and the amount of volatile fatty acids were statistically significantly higher in patients with infected pancreatic necrosis with total retroperitoneal phlegmons in comparison with the indicators of volatile fatty acids in patients with infected pancreatic necrosis with paracolic phlegmons and in comparison with indicators of volatile fatty acids in patients with infected pancreatic necrosis phlegmons. The indicators of acetic acid and the amount of VFA can be used as additional criteria for the differential diagnosis of IPN complicated by phlegmons of the retroperitoneal tissue.

Relevance. The informative value of the content of volatile fatty acids (VFA) in the fistulous drainage from pancreas not been studied in the diagnosis of pancreonecrosis (PN). The informative value of the indices of the content of VFA in the blood has not been studied sufficiently in the diagnosis of PN. Aim of the study is to compare the content of VFA in the blood and in the fistulous drainage from pancreas in patients with pancreatic necrosis. Materials and methods. Samples of blood and fistulous drainage from pancreas isolated from patients with a confirmed diagnosis of PN were studied (n = 18). There was analysis of the concentrations of VFA: acetic, propionic, butyric and isovaleric acids by gas-liquid chromatography on an automated gas chromatograph "Crystallux-4000" with a capillary column "HP-FFAP" Agilent Technologies and a flame ionization detector. The anaerobic index and sum of VFA were calculated. Results. Higher values of the content of acetic, propionic and butyric acids, the sum of VFA and lower values of the content of isovaleric acid and anaerobic index were found in patients with PN in comparison with those of practically healthy donors. Higher values of the content of acetic, propionic and isovaleric acid, the sum of VFA and anaerobic index were noted in the fistulous drainage from pancreas in comparison with the same parameters in blood in patients with PN. The correlation of pairwise conjugated parameters of the content of propionic and isovaleric acids, anaerobic index and the sum of VFA in fistulous drainage from pancreas and blood are discovered in patients with PN. Conclusions. The concentration of acetic, propionic and isovaleric acids, the sum of VFA were higher in the fistulous drainage from pancreas than in the blood in patients with PN. The analysis of the parameters of the VFA can be used as additional criteria for the early diagnosis of PN.

l(a). Volatile fatty acid (VFA) production (moles/12 hr) by two sheep fed at 2-hourly intervals on a constant ration containing equal parts of wheaten hay and lucerne hay, showed no significant difference between the sheep or between day-time and night-time values. The precision with which production could be measured over a series of 12-hr periods is given. The quantities of VFA produced in the rumen on successive days varied considerably; the extent of this variation was similar to that occurring in the quantities of faeces passed. (b) Production remained much the same whether the sheep were fed at intervals of 1, 2, or 12 hr. (c) The energy of the VFA produced in the rumen was equivalent to about 54% of the digestible energy of the diet. 2. Similar amounts of VFA were produced from two different mixtures of wheaten hay and lucerne hay, and from lucerne hay alone. 3. A modification in the procedure for measuring VFA production was tested and found to be satisfactory. The necessary apparatus could be readily carried on the back of a freely moving sheep.

1. The total capacities of homogenates of bovine liver and rumen epithelium to activate acetate, propionate and butyrate were determined. 2. Activating capacities were assayed by measuring the rate of formation of the corresponding CoA esters. The methods used for determining the concentrations of the CoA esters allowed the CoA esters of acetate, propionate and butyrate to be distinguished. It was thus possible to investigate the effect of the presence of a second volatile fatty acid on the rate at which a given volatile fatty acid was activated. 3. The propionate-activating capacity in rumen epithelium was decreased by about 87% in the presence of butyrate, the acetate-activating capacity in liver was decreased by about 55% in the presence of either propionate or butyrate, and the butyrate-activating capacity in liver was decreased by about 40–50% in the presence of propionate. 4. All three activating capacities in liver appeared to be located in the mitochondrial matrix and membrane. The three activating capacities had similar locations to each other in rumen epithelium as well, although in this case activity was more evenly divided between the mitochondria and the cytoplasm. 5. The relative activating capacities towards the volatile fatty acids in the two tissues, together with the ability of one volatile fatty acid to inhibit the activation of another volatile fatty acid, appear to ensure that butyrate is mainly metabolized in the rumen epithelium and that propionate is metabolized in the liver.

1. The findings presented in two previous papers on the yields of volatile fatty acids, obtained by the action of rumen liquor in the artificial rumen, from fresh grass, dried grass and the water-soluble and water-insoluble separates of the latter, have been amplified by a consideration of the acids similarly obtained from specimens of chemically prepared crude fibre and cellulose, from four of the dried grass specimens.2. The proportions of different volatile fatty acids from grass crude fibre and grass cellulose resemble those obtained from cellulose powder, propionic acid being produced in greatest relative yield.3. A general review of these latter findings, in relation to those already presented, has been given.

The Individual

Sheep were fed on either lucerne chaff, high wheat grain, or high maize grain rations. Analyses were made on digesta from the rumen and large intestines of cannulated and slaughtered animals. The results for the large intestine showed that, when equal quantities of dry matter are given, the composition of the ration can affect the pH, the water content, and the total dry matter of the digesta; diet can also affect the total quantities of volatile fatty acid and ammonia in the organ.The proportions of the individual volatile fatty acids in the caecal fluid were not affected by the different diets fed in this experiment. The data did not suggest any consistent pattern in the pH or in the concentrations of ammonia and volatile fatty acid in the caecal fluid during the 24 hr between feeds.

1. A method of obtaining dialysed samples from the caecum of the conscious rabbit is described.2. Values for total volatile fatty acid content and for molar proportions of individual volatile fatty acids in dialysate samples were in good agreement with those obtained from caecal material.3. The volatile fatty acid level in the caecum throughout the day was determined using two groups of animals, one group fed ad lib. and the other group on a restricted food intake. These results indicated a marked diurnal fluctuation in volatile fatty acid level in the caecum of rabbits fed once/d which was not evident in those fed ad lib.

Cannulated cows were allocated to a cross-over design to evaluate the technique for determination of volatile fatty acid (VFA) clearance by infusion of marker solution into intact ruminal digesta, and verify the technique sensibility to the variation in the diet. Animals received diet of forage or forage plus concentrate and infusion of valeric acid and Cr-EDTA solution into intact or evacuated ruminal digesta. The total fractional rate of VFA clearance (FRVFAC) was estimated by the exponential decay of valerate over time. The passage FRVFAC to the omasum was assumed as the decay in ruminal Cr concentration and the absorption FRVFAC was estimated by the difference. The total FRVFAC and absorption did not differ between techniques. The passage FRVFAC, however, was lower when the marker solution was added into the evacuated digesta, probably reflecting the destabilization of the rumen environment during the evacuation and the largest volume of fluid observed in animals with evacuated digesta. In conclusion, the infusion of marker solution into intact digesta with homogenization performed by ruminal motility could be usable for the VFA ruminal clearance determination since it seems to cause lesser disturbance in the ruminal environment.
