Öğe The Effect of Sorghum Grain on Ruminal Fermentation and Some Blood Parameters in Beef Cattle(Medwell Online, 2008) Baran, M. S.; Yokus, B.; Gul, I.; Alp, M.; Sahin, N.In this research, the effect of sorghum in beef cattle mixture feeds as energy source instead of wheat on ruminal fermentation and some blood parameters was investigated. In the experiment, 20 Holstein beef cattle of 1.5 years old, each weighing average 330 kg were used. The trial was done in 2 stages: the first stage was pre-experimental period for 2 weeks and the second stage was the main experimental period for 10 weeks, totally lasting twelve weeks. During the whole experimental period, isocaloric and isonitrogenic 2 diets were used. In control group, mixtures involved 27% wheat, but in experimental group 27% sorghum was used instead of wheat. Dried alfalfa hay was used as roughage. Both rations consisted of 80% concentrated feed and 20% roughage. The differences between the groups for ruminal fermentation parameters; rumen fluid pH, ammonia concentrations, total volatile fatty acids, acetate, propionate, butyrate levels were not significant (p>0.05). In both groups differences, at the beginning and middle of the trial period for blood serum parameters (total protein, glucose, albumin, Ca, Na, P, K, Zn, Cu, Fe, Mg), were not significant, but at the middle and end of the trial, the differences between the groups was significant for blood serum Se levels (p<0.05). Trial results indicated that sorghum grain could be used instead of wheat as an economical energy source in beef cattle rations.Öğe Effects of lamb sex, parity, and birth type on milk yield, lactation length, and milk components in Zom ewes raised under semi-intensive conditions(South African Journal Of Animal Sciences, 2023) Bayril, T.; Akdemir, F.; Baran, M. S.; Orhan, C.; Yildirim, I. H.; Yildiz, A. S.; Celik, R.This study aimed to determine the effects of parity, birth type, and lamb sex on milk yield, lactation length, milking period, and milk components in Zom ewes. In this study, which included 83 Zom ewes, it was observed that birth type affected daily and lactation milk yield, and only parity affected lactation length. The effects of the milking period on milk yield and birth type on milk fat content were marked. The effect of lamb sex on protein, solid non-fat, and lactose contents was substantial, but that of parity and birth type were not statistically significant. There was a negative correlation between lamb sex and solid non-fat, protein, lactose, and density and between fat, protein, and lactose. There was a positive correlation between the fat and solid non-fat content, freezing point, and mineral content. In conclusion, the effect of milking period was statistically significant for milk yield and components. Additionally, the effects of lamb sex on solid non-fat, protein, and lactose contents were found to be substantial.Öğe The Effects of Sorghum Grain on Live Weight Gain, Feed Conversion Ratios and Digestibility of Nutrients in Beef Cattle(Medwell Online, 2008) Baran, M. S.; Demirel, R.; Yokus, B.; Kocabagli, N.In this research, the effect of sorghum in beef cattle mixture feeds as energy source instead of wheat on live weight gain, feed conversion ratio and digestibility of nutrients were investigated. In the experiment, 20 Holstein male beef cattle of 1.5 years old and each weighing average 330 kg were used as animal material. The trial was done in two stages: the first stage was pre-experimental period for 2 weeks and the second stage was the main experimental period for 10 weeks, totally lasting 12 weeks. During the whole experimental period, isocaloric and isonitrogenic 2 diets were used. In control group, feed mixtures involved 27% wheat, but in experimental group, 27% sorghum was used instead of wheat. Dried alfalfa hay was used as roughage. Both rations consisted of 80% concentrated feed and 20% roughage. The differences between the control and treatment groups, in terms of live weight gains, feed intakes, daily live weight gains, feed conversion ratios and digestibility of nutrients, during 84 days of feeding period were not significant (p>0.05). Trial results indicated that sorghum grain could be used instead of wheat as an economical energy source in beef cattle rations.Öğe Effects of Sorghum on Nutrient Digestibility and Some Milk Parameters in Dairy Cow Rations(Medwell Online, 2008) Baran, M. S.; Gul, I.; Demirel, R.In this study, effects of sorghum used instead of corn as an energy source on nutrient digestibility and some milk parameters in dairy cow rations were investigated, During the 20 weeks trial period, four Holstein cows at their first lactation stage were used in 4x4 Latin square design. The trial was consisted of four periods. Each period lasted five weeks of which consisted two weeks pre-experimental period and three weeks main experimental period. Dairy cows were fed with four different rations. Good quality alfalfa was given as roughage to animals. Digestibility of nutrients were determined according to rations, as follows, respectively; dry matter: 69.16, 69.49, 69,74, 70.10%, crude ash: 26.04, 26.31, 26.42, 26.49%; organic matter: 70.35, 70.43, 70.33, 70.48%; crude protein: 69.77, 69.96, 70.20, 70.43%; etherextract: 70.74, 70.86, 71.02, 71.15%; crude fiber: 59.56, 59.75, 59.96, 60.17; Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF): 45.92, 46.03, 46.11, 46.15% and Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF): 4.3.06, 43.17, 43.36, 43.45%. The differences for the digestibility of dry matter, crude ash, organic matter, ADIF and NDF among rations were not significant (p>0.05). However, digestibility of crude protein, ether extract and crude fiber were found significant among rations (p<0.05). According to rations percentages of milk parameters were determined as follows, respectively; dry matter: 13.23, 13.02, 13.05, 13.10%, crude ash: 0.57, 0.56, 0.58, 0.60%, pH: 6.65, 6.65, 6.66, 6.68, density: 1030, 1031, 1031, 1031 and fat-free dry matter: 9.46, 9.29, 9.33, 9.37%. Differences among milk parameters, according to rations were not significant (p>0.05). Trial results indicated that grain sorghum can be used instead of corn as an economical energy source in dairy cow rations.Öğe Feeding Japanese quail diets supplemented with probiotics and enzymes(South African Journal Of Animal Sciences, 2022) Aydin, O. Durna; Yildiz, G.; Merhan, O.; Ulufer, S.; Onk, K.; Baran, M. S.; Kaplan, O.This study assessed the effects of dietary supplementation with probiotics and enzymes on performance, blood antioxidant capacity, and cecal short-chain fatty acid concentration. Two hundred one -day-old quail chicks were randomly divided into four groups, each containing 50 chicks. All the chicks were fed with a basal diet for 35 days. The control group was fed the basal diet, and the experimental groups were fed the basal diet augmented with a commercial probiotic and enzyme supplement at 0.5 g/kg, 1 g/kg and 2 g/kg. At the end of experiment, initial live weight, final live weight, live weight gain and feed intake were affected significantly by the addition of the supplement. However, the supplement did not influence the feed conversion ratio. Increasing the levels of the probiotic and enzyme supplement Diazyme 256 in the diets caused linear and quadratic responses in malondialdehyde, glutathione, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase level. Catalase showed a linear increase with the rise in level of the supplement. However, ceruloplasmin, albumin, total protein and globulin were not affected. Significant linear responses were observed in propionic acid, butyric acid and isocaproic acid with the increasing levels of the supplement. There were no significant differences in acetic acid, isobutyric acid, valeric acid, isovaleric acid, caproic acid, branched chain fatty acids, and short chain fatty acid concentrations for quails fed various levels of the supplement. In conclusion, the supplement Diazyme 256 containing probiotics and enzymes could be used in quail diets to improve growth performance, antioxidant capacity and intestinal health.
