Sivas ili Manda Yetiştiricilerinin Üretim ve Pazarlama Durumu
(Fırat Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 08.10.2021) Özdemir, Gökçe
Hastalıklara dayanıklı olması, niteliksiz kaba yemleri daha iyi sindirebilmesi, farklı yetiştirme sistemlerine kolayca adapte olması gibi önemli avantajlara sahip olan manda, tüketim alışkanlığı ve ürünlerinin kalitesi sebebiyle dünyanın pek çok bölgesinde yetiştirilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Sivas ili Merkez, Şarkışla ve Suşehri ilçelerinde toplam 122 manda yetiştiricisine uygulanan anketin üretim ve pazarlama sorulara ait verileri sunuldu. Katılımcıların, manda ürünlerinin değeri, tüketimi, üretim koşulları ve pazarlama olanakları gibi konularda tutum ve algılarının ortaya konulması amaçlandı. Katılımcıların, manda süt ve süt ürünlerini evlerinin ihtiyacı için kullandıkları, üretim fazlasını ise kendi oluşturdukları çevrelerde pazarladıkları tespit edildi. Yetiştiricilerin, %98.4’ü manda sütü diğer hayvan sütlerinden daha değerli olduğu yönünde, %49.2’si manda eti değeri için olumlu yönde görüş bildirdiler. Katılımcıların, organik üretim konusunda bilgili ve istekli oldukları tespit edildi. Sonuç olarak; manda süt ürünlerinin çeşitlendirilerek ekolojik üretim sistemi içerisinde ürünlerin katma değerin artırılması, manda eti ve ürünlerinin tanıtımının yapılarak yetersiz bilgiyi ve algıyı değiştirecek bir perspektif oluşturulması ile yetiştiricilerin kazancının artırılabileceği düşünülmektedir.
Sivas İli Manda İşletmelerinde Karma Üretim Durumunun ve Yetiştirici Eğitim Gereksinimlerinin Belirlenmesi
(Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 31.12.2021) Özdemir, Gökçe
Manda, süt ve et ürünlerinin kalitesi, sığırlara göre hastalıklara daha dayanıklı olması, kalitesiz kaba yemleri kaliteli süt ve et ürünlerine dönüştürebilmesi, yetiştirme maliyetinin düşük olması gibi nedenlerle ekonomik bir çiftlik hayvanıdır. Bu çalışmada, Sivas ili Merkez, Şarkışla ve Suşehri ilçelerinde 20 köydeki toplam 122 manda yetiştiricisine uygulanan anket verileri sunuldu. Katılımcıların %60’dan fazlasının 15-20 yılı aşkın bir süredir manda yetiştiriciliği ile uğraştıkları belirlenmiştir. Manda yetiştiriciliği dışında katılımcıların, %5.7’si sadece büyükbaş hayvan yetiştiriciliği, %54.9’u kanatlı ve büyükbaş hayvan yetiştiriciliği, %27.9’u bitkisel üretim ve büyükbaş hayvan yetiştiriciliği yaptıklarını ve %7.4’ü sadece bitkisel üretim ile uğraştıklarını beyan etmişlerdir. İşletmelerde montofon, simental ve bunların melezi sığırların yetiştirildiği tespit edildi. Katılımcıların %34.7’sinin manda yetiştiriciliği konusunda il/ilçe müdürlüklerinden bilgi edinirken, yalnızca %2.5 inin doğrudan profesyonel yardım (veteriner hekim, ziraat mühendisi) aldığı belirlendi. Üreticilerin %68.9’u manda yetiştiriciliği hakkında bir eğitim düzenlenirse katılmak istediklerini ifade ettiler. Sonuç olarak; yetiştiricilerin yeterli bir bilgiye ve eğitime ulaşamadıkları, eğitime hevesli oldukları, manda üretimi, verimliliği ve davranışları konularında bilgi birikimlerinin geliştirilmesine yönelik eğitim programlarının düzenlenmesinin faydalı olacağı kanatine varılmıştır.
A Research on Satisfaction Levels of Water Buffalo Breeders in Sivas Province, Türkiye
(Tekirdağ Ziraat Fakültesi Dergisi, 13.03.2024) Özdemir, Gökçe
Buffaloes can adapt to different regional and climatic conditions, yield high quality milk and meat products and are suitable for organic animal husbandry, which provides significant advantages in livestock raising. In this study, a total of 122 buffalo breeders living in the center of Sivas province, Şarkışla and Suşehri districts were examined in terms of age, gender, educational level and satisfaction with breeding buffaloes, reasons for breeding, problems encountered in breeding and expectations using a survey. The participants were mostly middle-aged individuals (89.3%). It was found that 67.2% of them graduated from primary school while 12.3% graduated from high school. It was revealed that the participants were breeding buffaloes in order to meet the daily needs of their homes (29%), were pleased with breeding them (91.8%) and had such positive views that they advised their children to breed buffaloes (62.7%). 64 % of the participants stated that they were satisfied with buffalo breeding for quality of dairy products and the high prices of these products. The buffalo breeders reported their breeding problems as high costs of fodder (35%), low meat price (25%) and the lack of market (10%) while they predicted that the buffalo breeding may become more profitable (95.6%) with the help of solutions to be made by the authorities. In order to achieve this aim, the breeders declared their demands to increase prices of their products sold in the market (34.4%), and loan limits for purchasing fodder and husbandry (33.7%). A significant relationship was found between the participants’ gender and the views that their work could be made profitable (p<0.001). It was also revealed that there was a significant relationship between the satisfaction level of the participants and recommending breeding buffaloes to their children (p<0.05) and the views that their work could be made profitable (p<0.001). When theproblems of buffalo breeders in Sivas province, expectations from the authorities and solutions to be offered areconsidered as a whole, it can be interpreted that increasing the quality of production, preference of consciousbreeding practices in animal selection, pricing that will guarantee production and developing new marketingopportunities will be beneficial to overcoming problems.
The Examining the Structural and Technical Characteristics of the Water Buffalo Farms in Sivas Province from the Perspective of Animal Welfare
(Journal of the Hellenic Veterinary Medical Society, 16.10.2023) Özdemir, Gökçe
In Turkey, water buffalo husbandry is conducted generally by using the traditional methods in shelters designed for cattle. The present study reports the data of the items of a questionnaire, which was conducted with 122 water buffalo breeders which are located in Central, Şarkışla, and Suşehri districts of Sivas province, regarding the structural and technical aspects of shelters such as shelter location, shelter type, building material, ventilation, and lighting. It was determined that, among the water buffalo breeders in Sivas province, the shelters were generally (73.5%) located nearby the house, that the building materials used in construction of the shelters were stone in 55.4%, concrete in 21.5% and briquette in 16.5% (p<0.0001), and that the floor materials used were concrete in 99.2% (p<0.05), whereas the roofing material was sheet metal/eternit in 80% (p<0.0001). It was found that water buffalos and cattle were held together in closed tethered systems (95.8%) and the space needs of animals were met by using chains of 40-60cm in length (63.1%). In conclusion, considering the animal welfare and behaviors, it was concluded that the infrastructural improvements to ensure the standardization in water buffalo shelters should be prioritized, that the old shelters should be re-organized, and that the watering systems in shelters should be analyzed.

(Revista Brasileira de Ciência Avícola, 11.07.2023) Gümüş Recep; Özbilgin Abdullah; Gelen Urçar Sevda; Kara Kanber
This study was conducted in order to determine the effects ofdifferent doses of resveratrol and curcumin added to the diet of broilerson the fatty acid profile of drumstick meat, and the microbial load andphysicochemical criteria in drumstick and breast meat. In the study, atotal of 200 male broiler chicks at the age of one days were equallydistributed into five groups. The treatments consisted of a basal diet(Control) and the treatments, which added the following amounts ofadditives to the basal control diet: (R250) 250 mg kg-1 resveratrol, (R500)500 mg kg -1 resveratrol, (C250) 250 mg kg -1 curcumin, and (C500)500 mg kg -1 curcumin. It was found that resveratrol and curcuminsignificantly decreased the counts of total mesophilic aerobic bacteria(TMAB) (8th day), Lactobacillus spp. (6th day) and Lactococcus spp.(8th day) in drumstick meat. In breast meat, decreases were observed inthe counts of Micrococcus/Staphylococcus (4th day) in the C500 group,and Enterobacteriaceae (8th day) in the R500 and C500 groups. TheTBARS value in drumstick meat decreased significantly in the R250,R500 and C500 groups on the zeroth day. Myristic acid, myristoleicacid, γ-linolenic acid, unsaturated fatty acids (ΣUFA), and medium chainfatty acids (MCFA) percentages of total fatty acids in drumstick meatwere found to increase in the R250 group according to other groups.In conclusion, it was observed that resveratrol and curcumin addedto the diet at variable levels affected the meat in terms of microbialand fatty acid profiles, while the effect was limited effectiveness onphysicochemical parameters

(Tropical Animal Health and Production, 26.04.2023) Özbilgin Abdullah; Kara KAnber
This study aims to investigate the effects of lavender essential oil on performance, egg quality parameters in quails, malon-dialdehyde (MDA) in fresh and stored (28 days at +4°C) eggs, and individual and total fatty acids. To this end, 100 femalequails (Coturnix coturnix Japonica) which were 5 weeks old with an average weight of 224 g were used. The study lasted45 days, including 10 days of introduction and 35 days of study. Quails were fed ad libitum with four different treatments.Four groups were formed as control groups (0g lavender essential oil/kg feed), Lav125 (125mg lavender essential oil/kgfeed), Lav250 (250mg lavender essential oil/kg feed), and Lav500 (500mg lavender essential oil/kg feed). There were fivesubgroups under each group and five quails in each subgroup. Feed consumption and egg weight parameters increased inLav500 group compared to the control group (p<0.05). The highest egg yield compared to the control group was determinedin Lav500 group (p>0.05), and the highest egg mass compared to the control group was determined in Lav125 group. Thehighest feed conversion ratio compared to the control group was in Lav250 group (p>0.05). In addition, egg white heightand Haugh Unit (HU) compared to the control group were the highest in Lav500 group (p<0.05). The MDA concentrationdecreased in Lav125 and Lav250 group in fresh and in Lav500 group in stored eggs (at +4C for 28 days) compared to thecontrol group (p<0.05). Omega 3 fatty acids in fresh and stored eggs were higher in lavender groups compared to the controlgroup (p<0.05). However, the concentration of omega 9 (oleic acid) fatty acid decreased in the lavender groups compared tothe control group (p<0.05). As a result, it was found that adding lavender essential oil to the diet leads to an increase in bodyweight, egg yield, egg mass, egg weight, egg white height, HU, omega 3 fatty acids, and a decrease in MDA concentration.

(Journal of Advances in VetBio Science and Techniques, 30.08.2023) Özbilgin Abdullah; Gümüş Recep; Ekici Mehmet; Ercan Nazlı
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of resveratrol used in adding it todrinking water. The study was carried out with 24 Wistar albino male 20 days rats for40 days. The study design was determined as one control and two trial groups (eachgroup with 2 parallels and each parallel with 4 rats). The first group was given a basalration and drinking water. The second group was given the basal ration and drinkingwater with 10 mg/kg resveratrol; and the third group was given the basal ration anddrinking water 20 mg/kg resveratrol. In serum biochemistry parameters, significantdecreases were observed in serum Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) enzyme activity,blood urea nitrogen (BUN), albumin, total protein and globulin concentrations andincrease in albumin/globulin ratio in groups given resveratrol (p<0.05). Regardless ofthe dose, an increase in the concentration of glutathione (GSH) from the antioxidantparameters was observed in the liver; In the kidney, an increase was observed in theRes10 group. In addition, a decrease in muscle superoxide dismutase (SOD) activityand an increase in muscle and kidney catalase (CAT) activity were observed. A decreasewas observed in malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations, which is a parameter of lipidperoxidation in the kidney. As a result, it was determined in the present study thatresveratrol has antioxidant effects regardless of the way of use, and it was concludedthat this additive can be used for various purposes.

(Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 08.04.2023) Özbilgin Abdullah; Özgür Aykut; Başbuğ Onur
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of flavonoid, which is a product ofcitrus production, on blood parameters and HSP 70 concentration in quails applied atthermoneutral and heat stress. In this study, 160 quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica,male), 6 wk old and 150-200 g live weight, were housed in cages for 1 wk of exercise and5 wk of trial period. The study design consists of 4 groups of 40 animals and 4 subgroupswith 10 animals in each group. Thermoneutral (24 ± 0.1 o C) groups are NC (0 ghesperidin/kg basal feed) and NHES3 (3 g hesperidin /kg basal feed) and heat stress (34± 0.1 oC) groups are HC (0 g hesperidin/kg basal feed) and HHES3 (3 g hesperidin /kgbasal feed) were randomly generated. In the case of heat stress, pO2, pH, HCO3, Clconcentrations decreased in the HHES3 group compared to the HC group (P<0.05). ALPenzyme concentration showed a significant decrease in the HHES3 group compared tothe HC group in the heat stress condition. Heat shock protein (HSP70) protein levelincreased in blood serum, kidney, liver and thigh tissues in HC group with cellular stressduring heat stress; however, HSP70 concentration decreased significantly in the HHES3 group. As a result, positive effects of hesperidin supplementation in the diet were foundin both heat stress and thermoneutral conditions.
Effects of Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia) Essential Oil on Fattening Performance, Meat Quality, Serum Antioxidant Enzymes, Gut Microbiota and Intestinal Histomorphology in Japanese Quails
(Revista Brasileira de Ciência Avícola, 31.07.2023) Özbilgin Abdullah; Moğulkoç Mahmut Niyazi; Kara Kanber; Gelen Urçar Sevda; Karataş Özhan; Özbek Ülger Dilara
This study examined the effects of lavender essential oil on performance,meat quality, microbial load, fatty acid profile and gut microbiota in quails.In the study, 200 quails (Coturnix coturnix Japonica) were divided into 4groups and 5 subgroups. The groups consisted of a control group (0 mg/kg feed) and three lavender essential oil groups, namely Lav125 (125mg/kg feed), Lav250 (250 mg/kg feed), and Lav500 (500 mg/kg feed).In terms of body weight change, Lav500 group had the best results afterthe control group (p>0.05). It was observed that, compared to the controlgroup, pH levels were high (p<0.05) in Lav250 and Lav500 groups on the9th day of storage. The effect of storage time on malondialdehyde (MDA)was used as a parameter of lipid peroxidation in meat, and the Lav250and Lav500 groups presented lower concentrations as compared to thecontrol group (p<0.05). In this study, the addition of lavender essential oilto the diet enriched the concentrations of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturatedfatty acids (PUFA). Moreover, the height of villi in the duodenum andjejunum, and consequently absorption, increased significantly in theLav500 group as compared to the control group. The concentration ofMDA, a blood serum antioxidant enzyme, decreased with the addition oflavender oil. Additionally, lavender essential oil added to quail diets wasobserved to increase the number of Lactobacillus spp. (probiotic bacteria)colonies (p<0.05)

(Instituto de Tecnologia do Paraná-Tecpar, 2023) İmik, Halit; Terim Kapakin, Kübra Asena; Karabulutlu, Özlem; Gümüş, Recep; Çomaklı, Selim; Özkaraca, Mustafa
This study was aimed at determining the effects of corn and wheat glutens on the histopathological and immunohistochemical structure of the ovarian tissue, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, and lipid profile in rats. Twenty-day-old 24 female Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to three groups, and were raised until 185 days of age. Three study groups, named as Wheat, Corn and Soybean Groups, were established and fed on wheat gluten, corn gluten and soybean meal, respectively, as a protein source. At the end of the trial, ovarian tissue specimens and serum samples were taken from the animals, and analyzed. Compared to Soybean Group, in Wheat Group, of the ovarian histopathological parameters investigated, values pertaining to the primordial, primary, secondary, and Graafian follicles and corpora lutea (CL) were numerically smaller, and for the immunohistochemical parameters investigated, in the transglutaminase 2 (TGM2), gliadin, IgA, IgM, CD4 and CD8 were immunopositivity higher (P>0.05). It was determined that, in Wheat Group, ovarian tissue LH levels had significantly decreased, whilst serum FSH levels had significantly increased (P<0.05). Wheat Group also displayed reduced ovarian tissue cholesterol levels and increased serum monoacylglycerol levels (P<0.05). In result, it was ascertained that wheat and corn glutens had limited effects on the histopathological and immunohistochemical structure of the ovarian tissue, but showed distinct effects on ovarian tissue LH and serum FSH levels.
Effects of dietary thyme and rosemary essential oils on biochemical parameters, anti-oxidant metabolism, small intestinal morphology and myofiber structure of superficial pectoral and biceps femoris muscles in broilers
(Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Urmia University, Urmia, Iran, 2023) Gümüş, Recep; Kara, Adem; Özkanlar, Seçkin; İmik, Halit; Aydemir Celep, Nevra
This study was aimed at determining the effects of dietary supplementation with thyme essential oil (TEO) and rosemary essential oil (REO) on blood parameters, the anti-oxidant metabolism in the liver, breast and drumstick muscle tissues, the morphology of the small intestine, and the myofibril structure of the superficial pectoral and biceps femoris muscles. For this purpose, 400 three-day-old male Ross 308 chicks were used. Five groups, each comprising 80 broilers, were established. The control group was fed on a basal diet alone and groups thyme1, thyme-2, rosemary-1 and rosemary-2 received basal diets supplemented with 0.15 g kg-1 of TEO, 0.30 g kg-1 of TEO, 0.10 g kg-1 of REO and 0.20 g kg-1 of REO, respectively. The serum total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein levels were decreased significantly in group thyme-1. Dietary TEO and REO significantly increased glutathione levels in all tissues. Drumstick catalase activity was significantly increased in groups thyme-1, thyme-2 and rosemary-2. Superoxide dismutase activity was significantly increased in the breast muscle of all groups that received dietary TEO and REO. Histomorphometrical analyses demonstrated that dietary supplementation with TEO and REO increased both crypt depth and villus height in the small intestine. In result, the tested doses of dietary TEO and REO were ascertained to improve the intestinal morphology and to increase the anti-oxidant metabolism mainly in the breast muscle, the drumstick muscle and liver.
Effects of dietary thyme and rosemary essential oils on performance parameters with lipid oxidation, water activity, pH, colour and microbial quality of breast and drumstick meats in broiler chickens
(Archives Animal Breeding, 2023) Gümüş, Recep; Urçar Gelen, Sevda
This study was aimed at determining the effects of different doses of thyme essential oil (TEO) and rosemary essential oil (REO) incorporated into broiler rations on performance parameters, including body weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion rate, as well as on the quality criteria of breast and drumstick meat. The study material comprised of 400 three-day-old male Ross 308 chicks, which were assigned to five groups, each of 80 broilers. Each group was divided into four sub-groups of 20 animals. In this study, the feed rations provided to the control group and groups TEO-150, TEO-300, REO-100 and REO-200 were supplemented with 0, 150 mg kg−1 TEO, 300 mg kg−1 TEO, 100 mg kg−1 REO and 200 mg kg−1 REO, respectively. Fattening performance parameters were statistically similar in the control group and all trial groups (P > 0.05). It was determined that, while dietary supplementation with TEO and REO significantly reduced total mesophilic aerobic bacteria (TMAB) counts throughout storage in drumstick meat and on days 0 and 8 of storage in breast meat (P < 0.01), it showed variable effects on other microbial counts and during other time points in both breast meat and drumstick meat. Dietary supplementation with TEO and REO was ascertained not to affect the pH value of breast and drumstick meat and to show limited and variable effects on colour parameters and water activity throughout the storage period of breast and drumstick meat. In all groups supplemented with TEO and REO, the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) levels of drumstick meat were observed to have significantly decreased on days 0, 2 and 4 of storage (P < 0.01). As a result, dietary supplementation with TEO and REO was determined to have a limited effect on performance parameters, but to improve the microbial quality of meat.

Zavot cattle genetic characterization using microsatellites
(Springer Nature, 27.10.2022) Kuru, Buket BOĞA; Kırmızıbayrak, Turgut; Özşensoy, Yusuf
This study aimed to reveal the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationship between intra- and inter-breeds of Zavot cattle raised locally in and around Kars province, Türkiye. A total of 209 [Zavot (ZAV) n = 49, Eastern Anatolian Red (EAR) n = 40, Simmental (SIM) n = 40, Brown-Swiss (BS) n = 40, and Holstein (HOLS) n = 40] non-related cattle without any clinical health problems were evaluated. Using the standard phenol–chloroform method, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was isolated from blood samples and amplified by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using 19 bovine-specific microsatellite markers. A capillary electrophoresis process was applied to the denatured PCR products. A total of 274 different alleles were identified, with an average of 10.29 and an average of effective alleles of 5.38. According to the genetic distance matrix between populations, the largest genetic distance was found between ZAV-HOLS (0.358) populations, while ZAV - EAR populations were located at the same roots. The largest FST value (0.072) was found among ZAV-HOLS populations. According to the factorial correspondence analysis (FCA) graph, each population was located separately but also showed a mixture, especially the ZAV, EAR, and BS populations. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) values were the lowest (0.44) for the BM2113 marker and the highest (0.92) for the TGLA53 marker. In conclusion, ZAV cattle bred in the Kars region were found to be completely separate from the BS and SIM breeds which were claimed to have contributed to the formation of the ZAV breed. Since currently the native breeds, which are symbolic of the region, inbreeding cannot be prevented, an increase in studies devoted to the protection of these breeds and the establishment of pure herds will be useful for the future of native cattle in Türkiye.
Genetic polymorphism and antioxidant activity in interventions of tobacco-related diseases of the abdominal aorta
(TerMedia, 01.07.2022) Türker, Fevzi Sarper; Doğan, Ayşe; Özşensoy, Yusuf
Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the genetic polymorphisms of some antioxidant enzymes together with oxidative stress and the response of some antioxidant enzymes against this situation in vascular and endovascular interventions performed for diseases of the infrarenal abdominal aorta. Material and methods: Twenty-four current or ex-smoker patients (eight aortoiliac occlusive disease (AOD), 16 abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)) who were operated were included in this pilot study. Malonyl dialdehyde (MDA) levels, as an indicator of oxidative stress, reduced glutathione, catalase and superoxide dismutase enzymes, which are indicators of antioxidant status, which were measured in aortofemoral bypass in AODs, and in endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysms repairs in the preoperative, operative, and postoperative periods. Genetic polymorphisms of these antioxidant enzymes developing a response to the damage in the preoperative blood samples were determined by using the PCR-RFLP method. Results: The lack of a significant increase of MDA (nmol/ml preoperative: 2.57 ±0.19, operative: 2.59 ±0.21, postoperative: 2.64 ±0.22, p = 0.63) in the oxidative damage in the operative and postoperative periods compared to the preoperative period prevented the damage and was thought to be associated with the elevation of some effective antioxidant parameters in the operative and postoperative periods. Conclusions: It may be thought that both types of interventions are quite reliable in terms of oxidative damage and, accordingly, the effect of the procedure- associated oxidative damage in the postoperative complications is low or ineffective. Two genotypes were obtained in each of the three gene areas of the patients, and no statistical significance was determined between the genotypes (p > 0.05).
Effects of plantago species herbage and silage on in vitro ruminal fermentation and microbiome
(İtalian journal of animal science, 04.11.2022) Kanber Kara; Sena Yılmaz; Süleyman Ercüment Önel; Abdullah Özbilgin
The present study aimed to compare the nutrient composition, in vitro ruminal fermentation values and microbiome in the ruminal fermentation of herbage and silage of the Plantago media, P. major and P. lanceolata species. The lactic acid (LA) content of P. lanceolata silage was higher than those of other plantago silages (p < 0.05). The α-linolenic, w-3, polyunsaturated (PUFA), medium chain (MCFA) and long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) of plantago silages were lower than those of plantago herbages (p < 0.05). The neutral detergent fibre (NDF) and acid detergent fibre (ADF) contents, total gas and methane production, metabolic energy (ME) and organic matter digestion (OMD) values and ammonia-nitrogen concentration in the in vitro fermentation fluid of P. major silage were lower than those of other plantago silages (p < 0.05). The in vitro ruminal methane production and community of archaea Methanobrevibacter in the microbiome of P. major herbage were higher than that of P. media and P. lanceolata herbages. The ensiling process significantly increased the in vitro total gas production, acetic acid concentration and Prevotellaceae bacteria of P. media and P. lanceolate compared their herbages. As a result, P. lanceolata and P. media silages provided high-quality silage fermentation; the nutrient composition was not lost to a great extent in the silage environment and the ruminal fibrolytic bacterial composition was positively affected. Plantago major silage could not provide a good silage quality and the in vitro ruminal fermentation and ruminal fibrolytic bacteria community value were negatively affected.
Effect of Citrus Flavonoid on Storage Time and Meat Quality of Pharaoh Quail (Coturnix Pharaoh)
(Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2022) Abdullah Özbilgin; Kanber Kara; Sevda Urçar Gelen
This study investigates the effects of Hesperidin added to quail ration at different rates on some microbiological and physicochemical, lipid peroxidation, and lipid profiles in thigh meat. The current study had a duration of 35 days and used Pharaoh quails (Coturnix Pharaoh). The grouping was done in three treatment groups: Control, HES500, and HES1000 (each group was divided into five subgroups), and 0, 500, and 1000 mg/kg of Hesperidin was added to the basal diet of the groups, respectively. Adding Hesperidin and storage time affected the pH parameter in meat. It affected colour parameters depending upon the added Hesperidin (p<0.05). There was a significant difference in the number of total mesophilic aerobic bacteria (TMAB) in comparison with the control group according to the storage time (p<0.05). Palmitic, α-linolenic, oleic acid, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids, which are among the individual fatty acids, differed between the control, HES500 and HES1000 groups (p<0.05). Hesperidin addition reduced lipid peroxidation on the 3rd, 5th, and 7th days of storage (p<0.05). Consequently, in direct proportion to the hypothesis at the beginning of the study, it was specified that adding Hesperidin reduced its concentration on lipid oxidation and had a positive effect on meat quality in terms of colour parameters.
