The article considers the influence of compound feeds with different protein levels on hematological and biochemical parameters of trout blood. The purpose of the experiment was to establish the effect of different protein nutrition levels in commercial rainbow trout feeding on hematological and biochemical parameters of their blood. For this purpose, five experimental groups were formed by the method of analogs. The experiment lasted 210 days and was divided into two periods: equalization (10 days) and main (200 days). During the equalization period, the feeding ration was the same for fish in the control and experimental groups. In the main period, the level of protein in experimental feeds for different experimental trout groups ranged from 44 to 52 % per 1 kg. It was found that different levels of rainbow trout’s protein nutrition do not cause significant changes in blood morphological composition. It is proved that rearing trout using compound feeds with a crude protein content of 50 % and 52 % promotes the increase of red blood cells, hemoglobin, white blood cells and phagocytic activity in blood. The use of 44 % and 46 % low crude protein diets in fish feeding reduces the morphological components in blood. As a result of studies on the phagocytic activity of neutrophils in fish blood, a slight increase was revealed under the influence of the studied factor. The analysis of the obtained results showed that with increasing levels of crude protein in the diets of rainbow trout, the concentration of total protein and its fractions in blood serum increased. Accordingly, the amount of total protein in blood of fish in the control group was 60.0 g/L, in the experimental groups – it was within the range of 59.6–65.3 g/L. The increase in the level of rainbow trout’s protein nutrition in the experimental groups 4 and 5 caused an increase in the number of albumins, β-globulins and γ-globulins compared to control. As a result of experimental studies, an increase in the mineral status of rainbow trout blood during use of feeds with the crude protein content of 50–52 % was established. No differences were found during the assessment of trout white blood cell counts.

Hematological And Biochemical Parameters

This study is conducted to evaluate the therapeutic and antioxidant effect of lemon juice on some hematological and biochemical parameters. Thirty female mice used in this study were exposed to oxidative stress through giving them hydrogen peroxide in drinking water for 30 days. Animals randomly distributed over 3 groups, each group contained 10 animals and treated as follows: T1 control group (drinking distilled water only), T2 (0.75% hydrogen peroxide in drinking water) and T3 (0.75% hydrogen peroxide in drinking water with daily drenching with 1 mL lemon juice). At the end of the experiment, blood samples were collected from animals for evaluating the following hematological and biochemical parameters: Haemoglobin concentration (Hb), red blood cells count (RBC), white blood cells count (WBC), packed cell volume (PCV), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), platelet count (PLT), level of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total protein. The results showed that T3 exhibited an enhancement in RBC count, Hb concentration, WBC, lymphocyte and total protein and reduction in the level of AST and ALT compared to T2. These findings clearly revealed the advance protective and antioxidant features of lemon juice on hematological and biochemical parameters of the oxidatively stressed female mice.

Individual Consistency

The milk from twelve individual cows in a mixed herd in Shropshire was sampled twice weekly over a period of 12 weeks, which covered the transition from winter to summer conditions of feeding. Detailed analytical results are tabulated, and certain figures presented in graphical form. In addition, bulk samples of both morning's and evening's milk were obtained and tested for fat and solids-not-fat.On the whole the results show great individual consistency of composition, but an appreciable rise in the crude protein content of the milk from all cows took place in late April and in May, this effect being attributed to the change-over in feeding to an all-grass diet. From a consideration of the figures obtained, it is deduced that:(1) The average composition of mid-lactation milk may differ markedly from cow to cow, but appears to be unchanged by minor alterations in the winter rations, provided these are reasonably satisfactory to begin with. There is, however, a marked increase in total protein resulting from the introduction of spring-grass feeding.(2) The results show that a herd, although well-fed and efficiently managed, may produce milk in the late winter months, and even in the early spring, which is below the legal standard of 8·50% in s.n.f.

Mischkolz, J. M., Schellenberg, M. P. and Lamb, E. G. 2013. Early productivity and crude protein content of establishing forage swards composed of combinations of native grass and legume species in mixed-grassland ecoregions. Can. J. Plant Sci. 93: 445–454. We evaluated the early establishment productivity of forage swards of native, perennial, cool and warm season grasses, and legumes as they have the potential to provide non-invasive, productive, and drought resistant rangelands. Seven species with agronomic potential and a broad native geographic distribution were selected for testing including: nodding brome [Bromus anomalus (Coult.)], blue bunch wheatgrass [Pseudoregneria spicata (Pursh)], western wheatgrass [Pascopyrum smithii (Rydb.)], side oats grama [Bouteloua curtipendula (Michx.)], little blue stem [Schizachyrium scoparium (Michx.)], purple prairie clover [Dalea purpurea (Vent.)], and white prairie clover [Dalea candida (Willd.)]. Forage swards, including all seven monocultures, 21 two-species mixtures and a mixture with all species, were planted in two sites, Saskatoon and Swift Current, Saskatchewan. Western wheatgrass (WWG) had the highest overall plant density and the strongest effect on the forage yield of the forage swards; however, productivity and crude protein content were not reduced when other species were also included in the forage sward. Dalea spp. did not establish as well as the other species, but had the highest crude protein concentrations. This work provides insight into forage sward development at the establishment stage; additional work is required to determine long-term species impacts for well established forage swards.

Dietary Crude Protein

AbstractThis study investigated the effects of 100 g/kg increments of crude protein (approx. 250 (P25) to 550 (P55) g/kg of crude protein) in paired iso-energetic diets on the growth performance of the juvenile Australian short-finned eel (1·83 (s.e. 0·01) g average wet weight). The highest growth response was obtained with treatment P45 followed by P35, P55 and P25. It appeared that food efficiency ratio (FER) increased with increasing crude protein content in low energy diets (treatments P25 and P35). However, 100 g/kg increase in dietary crude protein content (from 450 to 550 kg crude protein per kg diet) in high energy diets resulted in lower FER for treatment P55 than for the treatment P45. The protein efficiency ratio (PER, %) was higher in low protein:low energy diets (treatments P25 and P35) than that of high protein:high energy diets (treatments P45 and P55). The protein productive values (PPV, %) for treatments followed a similar trend to PER in this experiment. The lowest PPV was obtained by the treatment P55 and it was significantly different from that of the other three treatments. A proportional increase in dietary crude protein content in paired iso-energetic diets did not significantly change the whole body protein content. However, a small increase in whole body protein content with increasing dietary crude protein in each group was detected. In conclusion, the present study showed protein sparing effects of lipids and carbohydrates in the diets of the short-finned eel. Further studies specifically investigating the effects of dietary carbohydrate to lipid ratios at different protein levels would improve diet formulation and reduce nutrient impact in intensive recirculation systems.
