Nutritional and metabolic diseases of livestock and poultry
Chapter 1 Overview
Concept: General term for nutritional diseases and metabolic disorders
Characteristics: group onset; local epidemic; incidence rate is related to increasing production performance; no infectivity among individuals; characteristic pathological changes in organ systems, clinical blood and biochemical changes; usually slow onset, long course and lack of characteristic symptoms ;The occurrence of certain nutritional and metabolic diseases is related to genetic factors
Causes: 1. Insufficient intake of nutrients or lack of certain nutrients in the diet; 2. Excessive intake of certain nutrients; 3. Secondary to other non-infectious and infectious diseases that impair digestion, absorption and metabolism. Disease; 4. Unreasonable use of feed additives or unreasonable dietary ratios; 5. Some metabolic diseases are caused by genetic factors; 6. One-sided pursuit of feed conversion rate
Diagnosis: 1. Epidemiological investigation; 2. Examination of clinical symptoms; 3. Examination and analysis of pathology and clinical pathology; 4. Inspection and analysis of feed; 5. Therapeutic diagnosis; 6. Animal experiments
Prevention and treatment: 1. Strengthen feeding management and scientifically allocate diets; 2. Look at the problem from the perspective of animal ecological balance; 3. Establish timely and correct diagnosis of nutritional and metabolic diseases of livestock and poultry; 4. Regularly conduct "metabolic profiling" of certain high-yielding livestock. "Detection; 5. Effectively prevent certain nutritional and metabolic diseases that can be secondary to other infectious diseases.
Metabolomics
Concept: Qualification and quantification of all metabolic components in a specific biological sample under defined conditions
According to different research objects and purposes, it is divided into 4 levels: 1. Metabolite target analysis; 1. Metabolic profiling analysis; 3. Metabolomics; 4: Metabolic fingerprint analysis
Effects of nutrients on immunity
Arginine: necessary for the growth and proliferation of T lymphocytes. Has anti-tumor effect
Methionine: Lymphocytes have special requirements for methionine. The lack of it will hinder the growth and development of rats and cause the thymus and spleen to degenerate.
Lysine: demand is related to the activity of the immune system in livestock and poultry, and is negatively correlated
Threonine: limiting amino acid. Deficiency can cause the production of immunoglobulins and T/B lymphocytes, affecting immune function.
Polyunsaturated fatty acids: immune modulation
VA... slightly
Chapter 2 Diseases related to abnormal metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins
Ketosis in dairy cows
Concept: A systemic dysfunctional metabolic disease caused by carbohydrate and volatile fatty acid metabolism disorders in dairy cows within days to weeks after calving.
Clinical ketosis: above 3.44mmol/L
Subclinical ketosis: 1.72~3.44mmol/L
Epidemiology: It mostly occurs within 3 weeks after calving. It is more common in cows with high milk production. It is more common in winter and spring.
Pathogenesis: Glucose is mainly converted by gluconeogenesis of propionate; grass and green hay feed produce the most propionic acid; the decrease in blood sugar concentration is the central link in the occurrence of ketosis; fatty acids generate triglycerides in the liver
Ketone bodies: beta-hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate, and acetone
Characteristics: Hypoglycemia, hyperketonemia, hyperketonuria, hyperketonia
Causes: 1. High yield of dairy cows, 2. Unbalanced dietary nutrition and insufficient supply, 3. Excessive prenatal obesity of cows
Treatment: 1. Alternative therapy (intravenous injection of 500ml of 50% glucose, feeding propylene glycol or glycerol); 2. Hormone therapy, 3. Other therapies (chloral hydrate)
Prevention: 1. Scientifically control the nutrient supply of cattle throughout the lactation period, and strictly prevent cattle from becoming overweight before the end of lactation; 2. Gradually increase energy supply 4 to 5 weeks before delivery, and gradually increase it until calving and peak lactation periods. ; 3. Concentrated feed should maintain a reasonable ratio of coarse and concentrated feed. The crude protein content in the concentrate should not exceed 16% to 18%, and ground corn is the best carbohydrate; 4. Barley, etc. can be used instead of corn as carbohydrate in the feed, and good quality hay or silage should be provided; 5. In ketosis Feeding sodium propionate during the period of high disease incidence also has a good preventive effect.
