Abstract
摘要
Glycerol can be derived from the production of biodiesel. It is a glucogenic substance similar to propylene glycol, which has been used effectively to prevent ketosis in high yielding dairy cows. This study was conducted to evaluate the potential of glycerol of three different purities in diets for ruminats. Energy concentrations of glycerols and of glycerol containing diets were determined in vitro and in vivo as related to different types of concentrates, i. e., high in starch versus low in starch. Glycerols at concentrations of up to 10% of total diet dry matter were compared with starch as rapidly fermentable carbohydrate source as related to estimates of ruminal fermentation, microbial biomass production, and nutrient digestibilities in steers at 85% of ad libitum intake. Additionally, we evaluated the physical, chemical and hygienic qualities of concentrate pellets containing glycerol of different purities at different concentrations and stored under different environmental conditions.
Pellet quality, in particular hygienic quality, was positively influenced by glycerol. Estimated energy concentrations from digestibility trials in vivo were 8.3 and 9.5 MJ net energy for lactation/kg of glycerol when glycerol was fed in combination with a high and a low starch concentrate, respectively. From the in vivo data it can be concluded that glycerol of different purities can replace rapidly fermentable starches in diets for ruminants up to concentrations of 10% of diet dry matter without negatively affecting feed and water intake, ruminal nutrient degradation and whole-tract nutrient digestibilities. Rumen microbial biomass production was not different among the diets containing starch or glycerol. The glucose precursor glycerol may improve energy supply to high yielding dairy cows, both before and after calving and thereby have an impact on health and performance during the entire lactation.
