Microalgae biomass is regarded as a promising feedstock for biodiesel production. The biomass lipid content and fatty acids composition are among the main selective criteria when screening microalgae strains for biodiesel production. In this study, three strains of Chlorella microalgae (C. kessleri, C. sorokiniana, C. vulgaris) were cultivated nutrient media with different nitrogen contents, and on a medium with the addition of dairy wastewater. Moreover, microalgae grown on dairy wastewater allowed the removal of azote and phosphorous...

BACKGROUND: Including seaweed in cattle feed has gained increased interest, but it is important to take into account that the concentration of toxic metals, especially arsenic, is high in seaweed. This study investigated the arsenic species in milk from seaweed-fed cows. RESULTS: Total arsenic in milk of control diets (9.3 ± 1.0 μg As kg-1 , n = 4, dry mass) were significantly higher than seaweed-based diet (high-seaweed diet: 7...

Probiotic-containing fermented dairy foods have the potential to benefit human health, but the importance of the dairy matrix for efficacy remains unclear. We investigated the capacity of Lacticaseibacillus casei BL23 in phosphate-buffered saline (BL23-PBS), BL23-fermented milk (BL23-milk), and milk to modify intestinal and behavioral responses in a Dextran Sodium Sulfate (DSS, 3% w/v) mouse model of colitis. Significant sex-dependent differences were found such that female mice exhibited more severe colitis, greater weight loss, and higher mortality rates...

Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl) phosphite (AO168), an organophosphite antioxidant, can be oxidized to tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl) phosphate (AO168 = O) during the production, processing, and application of plastics. AO168 = O can be further transformed to bis(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl) phosphate and 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol. Here, we discovered the contamination of AO168 and its transformation products in dairy products for the first time. More samples contained AO168 (mean concentration: 8...

Continuous application of dairy manure to soils can lead to excessive phosphorus (P) accumulation (legacy P), which requires understanding for managing nutrient availability and leaching. This study was conducted in Kimberly, ID, where dairy manure or conventional fertilizer was applied to calcareous soil plots under continuous crop rotations for 8 years (2013-2020), followed by 2 years with no amendment. To understand legacy P behavior in the soils, total P, organic/inorganic P, and plant-available Olsen bicarbonate P and Truog extraction measurements were made from surface and subsurface samples...

To investigate the difference between rumen-protected niacin (RPN) and rumen-protected nicotinamide (RPM) in the transcriptome of genes relating to the lipid metabolism of the liver of periparturient dairy cows, 10 healthy Chinese Holstein cows were randomly divided into two groups and fed diets supplemented with 18.4 g/d RPN or 18.7 g/d RPM, respectively. The experiment lasted from 14 days before to 21 days after parturition. Liver biopsies were taken 21 days postpartum for transcriptomic sequencing. In addition, human LO2 cells were cultured in a medium containing 1...

Novel insights into the stability of milk and milk products during storage and processing result from describing caseins near neutral pH as hydrophilic, intrinsically disordered, proteins. Casein solubility is strongly influenced by pH and multivalent ion binding. Solubility is high at neutral pH or above but decreases as casein net charge approaches zero, allowing a condensed casein phase or gel to form then increases at lower pH. Of particular importance for casein micelle stability near neutral pH is the proportion of free caseins in the micelle (i...

Microalgae biotechnology is hampered by the high production costs and the massive usage of water during large-volume cultivations. These drawbacks can be softened by the production of high-value compounds and by adopting metabolic engineering strategies to improve their performances and productivity. Today, the most sustainable approach is the exploitation of industrial wastewaters for microalgae cultivation, which couples valuable biomass production with water resource recovery. Among the food processing sectors, the dairy industry generates the largest volume of wastewaters through the manufacturing process...

The periparturient period is characterized by the increased demand for calcium (Ca) in dairy cows. This has resulted in the utilization of several different prepartal nutritional strategies to prevent hypocalcemia postpartum. The objective of our study was to determine the effects of feeding synthetic zeolite A (XZ), a negative dietary cation-anion difference (DCAD) diet, or a positive DCAD diet (CON) during the close-up period on peripartal mineral dynamics and hormones involved in calcium metabolism. To this end, one hundred and 21 multiparous Holstein cows, blocked by lactation number and expected due date were enrolled at 254 d of gestation and randomly assigned to 1 of 3 prepartum diets: CON (+190 mEq/kg; n = 40), -DCAD (-65 mEq/kg; n = 41), or a diet supplemented with sodium aluminum silicate (XZ; +278 mEq/kg, fed at 3...

Introduction: High concentrations of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) is the key of characteristic of fatty liver in dairy cows. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of high concentration of NEFA on lipid metabolism in hepatocytes through the lipidomic approach and molecular biology techniques. Methods: Stimulate AML-12 cells with different concentrations of NEFA, observe the cellular lipid accumulation, and select 0.6 mM NEFA stimulation concentration for subsequent experiments...

Historical applications of manures and fertilizers at rates exceeding crop P removal in the Mid-Atlantic region (United States) have resulted in decades of increased water quality degradation from P losses in agricultural runoff. As such, many growers in this region face restrictions on future P applications. An improved understanding of the fate, transformations, and availability of P is needed to manage P-enriched soils. We paired chemical extractions (i.e., Mehlich-3, water extractable P, and chemical fractionation) with nondestructive methods (i...

The composition of milk lipids varies across different ethnic sources. The lipidome profiles of Chinese Han human milk (HHM) and Chinese Korean human milk (KHM) were investigated in this study. A total of 741 lipids were identified in HHM and KHM. Twenty-eight differentially expressed lipids (DELs) were screened between the 2 milk groups; among these, 6 triacylglycerols (TGs), 13 diacylglycerols (DGs), 7 free fatty acids (FFAs), and 1 monoglyceride (MG) were upregulated in KHM. Carnitine (CAR) was upregulated in HHM...

We designed and constructed a green and sustainable bioprocess to efficiently coproduce D -tagatose, bioethanol, and microbial protein from whey powder. First, a one-pot biosynthesis process involving lactose hydrolysis and D -galactose redox reactions for D -tagatose production was established in vitro via a three-enzyme cascade. Second, a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-dependent galactitol dehydrogenase mutant, D36A/I37R, based on the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent polyol dehydrogenase from Paracoccus denitrificans was created through rational design and screening...

Liver abscesses (LA) resulting from bacterial infection in cattle pose a significant global challenge to beef and dairy industries. Economic losses from liver discounts at slaughter and reduced animal performance drive the need for effective mitigation strategies. Tylosin phosphate supplementation is widely used to reduce LA occurrence, but concerns over antimicrobial overuse emphasize the urgency to explore alternative approaches. Understanding the microbial ecology of LA is crucial to this, and we hypothesised that a reduced timeframe of tylosin delivery would alter LA microbiomes...

Through its influence on the gut microbiota, feeding of Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation products (SCFP) has been a successful strategy to enhance the health of dairy cows during periods of physiological stresses. Although production and metabolic outcomes from feeding SCFP are well-known, combined impacts on the ruminal microbiota and metabolome during gut barrier challenges remain unclear. To address this gap in knowledge, multiparous Holstein cows (97.1 ± 7.6 DIM; n = 8/group) fed a control diet (CON) or CON plus 19 g/d SCFP for 9 wk were subjected to a feed restriction (FR) challenge for 5 d, during which they were fed 40% of their ad-libitum intake from the 7 d before FR...

Mycoplasma bovis is a major cause of bovine mastitis. Intermittent shedding of the organism for many months is a feature of cows with intramammary infection. A dairy farm in Japan experienced a mastitis outbreak caused by M. bovis in 2016, as well as 2 additional outbreaks and 1 case in 2020-2021. The causative strains in the 3 outbreaks shared a common and identical genetic feature, the insertion of a transposase gene at the same site within the phosphate acetyltransferase-2 gene. Additionally, all isolates were genotyped to closely related sequence types (ST21 and ST141) by multilocus sequence typing, and had similar pulsopatterns by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis...

Semen production and quality are closely correlated with different environmental factors in bovines, particularly for the buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bulls reared under tropical and sub-tropical conditions. Factors including DNA methylation patterns, an intricate process in sperm cells, have an impact on the production of quality semen in buffalo bulls under abiotic stress conditions. The present study was conducted to identify DNA methylome signatures for semen quality in Murrah buffalo bulls, acclaimed as a major dairy breed globally, under summer heat stress...

Mastitis is an inflammation of the mammary gland commonly caused by bacteria or fungi. Staphylococcus aureus is a major bacterium that causes mastitis in dairy cows. Non-aureus staphylococci are also increasingly reported, with Staphylococcus chromogenes being the most common species. Current staphylococcal mastitis control programs are not fully effective, and treatment with antibiotics is not sustainable. Non-antibiotic sustainable control tools, such as effective vaccines, are critically needed. We previously developed S...

A series of technologies have been employed in pilot-scale to process digestate, i.e. the byproduct remaining after the anaerobic digestion of agricultural and other wastes, with the aim of recovering nutrients and reducing the load of solids and organics from it, hence improving the quality of digestate for potential subsequent reuse. In this case the digestate originated from a mixture of dairy and animal wastes and a small amount of agricultural wastes. It was processed by the application of several treatments, applied in series, i...

In this study, the effect of modified areca husk fibre biochar (MAFB-AlCl3 ) on dairy sludge conditioning and dewatering along with raw and modified coconut shell biochar (MCSB-FeCl3 ) was investigated. Further, MgO impregnated biochars of areca husk fibre and coconut shells was carried out to evaluate the performance on phosphate recovery from the diary sludge. The enhancement in sludge dewatering with MAFB-AlCl3 were evaluated experimentally and significant reduction of capillary suction time (CST) (51.6 %), moisture content (18%), zeta potential (1...
