Effects of feeding whole-cracked rapeseeds, nitrate, and 3-nitrooxypropanol on composition and functional properties of the milk fat fraction from Danish Holstein cows.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the individual and combined effects of supplementing fat with whole-cracked rapeseed (FAT), nitrate (NITRATE), and 3-nitrooxypropanol (3-NOP) on compositional and functional properties of milk fat. An 8 × 8 incomplete Latin square design was conducted with 48 lactating Danish Holstein cows over 6 periods of 21 d each. Eight diets were 2 × 2 × 2 factorially arranged: FAT (30 or 63 g crude fat/kg DM), NITRATE (0 or 10 g nitrate/kg DM), and 3-NOP (0 or 80 mg 3-NOP/kg DM), and cows were fed ad libitum. Milk samples were analyzed for general composition, fatty acids (FA) and thermal properties of milk fat. Milk fat content was decreased by supplementing fat but increased by 3-NOP. The changes in FA composition were mainly driven by the FAT × 3-NOP interaction. Fat supplementation shifted milk FA composition toward a lower content of SFA and greater contents of MUFA and PUFA, whereas these effects became smaller in combination with 3-NOP. However, 3-NOP had no effects on SFA, MUFA, or PUFA in low-fat diets. Fat supplementation lowered solid-fat content in milk fat because of the decreased SFA content. The onset crystallization temperature of milk fat was decreased by 3-NOP when supplemented in low-fat diets. According to the FAT × 3-NOP interaction, supplementation of fat without 3-NOP shifted the peak temperature of the low-melting fraction of milk fat toward low temperature as a result of a decreased proportion of C16:0 and increased proportions of C18:1 cis-9, C18:1 trans-11, C18:2 cis-9, and CLA cis-9,trans-11. In conclusion, no additive effects were observed among FAT, NITRATE, and 3-NOP on chemical and thermal properties of milk fat, and fat supplementation largely changed milk FA composition, which in turn affected the thermal properties of milk fat.

Abstract
Worldwide milk production is predominantly founded on indoor, high-concentrate feeding systems, whereas pasture-based feeding systems are most common in New Zealand and Ireland but have received greater attention recently in countries utilizing conventional systems. Consumer interest in 'pasture-fed' dairy products has also increased, arising from environmental, ethical, and nutritional concerns. A substantial body of research exists describing the effect of different feeding strategies on the composition of milk, with several recent studies focusing on the comparison of pasture- and concentrate-based feeding regimes. Significant variation is typically observed in the gross composition of milk produced from different supplemental feeds, but various changes in the discrete composition of macromolecular components in milk have also been associated with dietary influence, particularly in relation to the fatty acid profile. Changes in milk composition have also been shown to have implications for milk and dairy product processability, functionality and sensory properties. Methods to determine the traceability of dairy products or verify marketing claims such as 'pasture-fed' have also been established, based on compositional variation due to diet. This review explores the effects of feed types on milk composition and quality, along with the ultimate effect of diet-induced changes on milk and dairy product functionality, with particular emphasis placed on pasture- and concentrate-based feeding systems.

Abstract
Heat-treated rapeseed was supplemented to indoor fed yaks in winter to test the effect on dry matter intake (DMI), body mass change, and meat quality. Sixteen 3-year-old yak steers (124 ± 15.3 kg) were divided randomly into two groups and were offered either heat-treated rapeseed (HTR) or rapeseed meal (CONT). The yaks were allowed 14 days for adjustment and measurements were made over 120 d. There was no difference in DMI between groups (p = 0.67), but average daily gain tended to be higher (p < 0.056) and feed to gain ratio tended to be lower (p = 0.050) in HTR than in CONT yaks. Meat from HTR yaks was more tender (p = 0.006), had higher intramuscular fat (p = 0.013), and had lower cholesterol content (p = 0.009) than from CONT yaks. In addition, the atherogenic index was lower (0.37 vs. 0.43; p = 0.049), the PUFA:SFA ratio was higher (0.55 vs. 0.37; p = 0.049), and the n-6:n-3 (n-6 PUFA to n-3 PUFA) ratio was lower (2.76 vs. 4.78; p = 0.003) in HTR than in CONT yaks, which all favoured the HTR yaks. Meat from HTR yaks met human health standards of a PUFA:SFA ratio of above 0.4 and n-6:n-3 ratio of less than 4, whereas meat from CONT yaks just missed these standards.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of level of 1) pregrazing herbage mass (HM) and 2) level of daily herbage allowance (DHA) on the performance and fatty acid (FA) composition of milk from grazing dairy cows. Sixty-eight Holstein-Friesian dairy cows were allocated to either a high or low pregrazing HM (1,700 vs. 2,400 kg of DM/ha; >40 mm), and within HM treatment, cows were further allocated to either a high or low DHA (16 vs. 20 kg of DM/d per cow; >40 mm) in a 2 x 2 factorial design. Pregrazing HM did not affect dry matter intake (17.5 +/- 0.75 kg/d), milk production (22.1 +/- 0.99 kg/d), milk composition (milk fat, 3.88 +/- 0.114%; milk protein, 3.28 +/- 0.051%), body weight (525 +/- 16 kg), or body condition score (2.65 +/- 0.064). Increasing DHA increased dry matter intake (+1.5 kg/d) but did not affect any other variable measured. Cows grazing the low HM or high DHA had a higher daily intake of total FA (+0.12 and +0.09 kg/d, respectively, for the low HM and high DHA), alpha-linolenic acid (LNA; +0.08 and +0.05 kg/d, respectively, for the low HM and high DHA), and linoleic acid (+0.01 for both the low HM and high DHA) compared with either the high HM or low DHA. Milk conjugated linoleic acid (cis-9, trans-11 isomer) was not affected by treatment (13.0 +/- 0.77 g/kg of total FA); however, large variation was recorded between individual animals (range from 5.9 to 20.6 g/kg of total FA). Milk concentrations of LNA were higher for animals offered the low HM (5.3 g/kg of total FA), but across treatments, milk concentrations of LNA were low (4.9 +/- 0.33 g/kg of total FA). The present study indicates that changes in HM and DHA do not have a great effect on the milk FA composition of grazing dairy cows. Further enhancement of the beneficial FA content in milk purely from changes in grazing strategy may be difficult when pasture quality is already high.

Abstract
Literature with data from dairy cows on pasture was reviewed to evaluate the effects of supplementation on intake, milk production and composition, and ruminal and postruminal digestion. Low dry matter intake (DMI) of pasture has been identified as a major factor limiting milk production by high producing dairy cows. Pasture DMI in grazing cows is a function of grazing time, biting rate, and bite mass. Concentrate supplementation did not affect biting rate (58 bites/min) or bite mass (0.47 g of DM/bite) but reduced grazing time 12 min/d per kilogram of concentrate compared with unsupplemented cows (574 min/d). Substitution rate, or the reduction in pasture DMI per kilogram of concentrate, is a factor which may explain the variation in milk response to supplementation. A negative relationship exists between substitution rate and milk response; the lower the substitution rate the higher the milk response to supplements. Milk production increases linearly as the amount of concentrate increases from 1.2 to 10 kg DM/d, with an overall milk response of 1 kg milk/kg concentrate. Compared with pasture-only diets, increasing the amount of concentrate supplementation up to 10 kg DM/d increased total DMI 24%, milk production 22%, and milk protein percentage 4%, but reduced milk fat percentage 6%. Compared with dry ground corn, supplementation with nonforage fiber sources or processed corn did not affect total DMI, milk production, or milk composition. Replacing ruminal degradable protein sources with ruminal undegradable protein sources in concentrates did not consistently affect milk production or composition. Forage supplementation did not affect production when substitution rate was high. Fat supplementation increased milk production by 6%, without affecting milk fat and protein content. Increasing concentrate from 1.1 to 10 kg DM/d reduced ruminal pH 0.08 and NH3-N concentration 6.59 mg/dl, compared with pasture-only diets. Replacing dry corn by high moisture corn, steam-flaked or steam-rolled corn, barley, or fiber-based concentrates reduced ruminal NH3-N concentration 4.36 mg/dl. Supplementation did not affect in situ pasture digestion, except for a reduction in rate of degradation when high amounts of concentrate were supplemented. Supplementation with energy concentrates reduced digestibility of neutral detergent fiber and intake of N but did not affect digestibility of organic matter or flow of microbial N.

Abstract
Twenty multiparous Holstein cows were used in a 16-wk trial. A block of 10 cows received a control diet, based on corn silage, and the other block of 10 cows successively received four diets with 1) an extruded blend of canola meal and canola seeds, 2) canola meal and whole canola seeds, 3) canola meal and ground canola seeds, or 4) canola meal and calcium salts of canola oil fatty acids. Canola fat represented about 2% of dietary dry matter. Compared to control cows, treated cows had similar dry matter intake, milk production, and daily milk output of true protein or fat. Protein contents of milk was decreased by all treatments, with a lower effect of extruded or whole canola seeds. Milk fat contents was lowered by all treatments, extruded seeds and calcium salts resulting in most important effects. All treatments lowered the percentage of fatty acids with 12 to 16 carbons in milk fat, increased C18:0 and cis-C18:1 percentages, and the proportion of liquid fat in butter between 0 and 12 degrees C. Calcium salts and, to a lesser extent extruded seeds, resulted in most important improvements of milk fatty acid profile and butter softness, whereas whole seeds had low effects.

Abstract
Beef and dairy products suffer from a negative health image, related to the nature of their lipid fraction. Rumen lipid metabolism involves the presence of saturated lipids in ruminant tissues. Lipolysis, fatty acid biohydrogenation and formation of microbial fatty acids in the rumen and their effects on rumen outflow of fatty acids are discussed. Special emphasis is given to the formation of trans-fatty acids and the possibilities of decreasing biohydrogenation. Small differences in intestinal digestibilities of fatty acids are mentioned, followed by a discussion on transfer of absorbed fatty acids into milk and adipose tissue lipids. The preferential retention of polyunsaturated fatty acids as well as the balance between synthesis and incorporation of fatty acids in tissues is described. Dietary means for the modification of milk fat are listed, with special emphasis on the possibilities for enrichment in polyunsaturated fatty acids and the presence of conjugated linoleic acids. A description of the nature and development of fat depots in beef cattle is followed by a discussion of breed, conformation and feed effects on adipose tissue distribution and fatty acid composition. Special emphasis is given to the very lean Belgian Blue double-muscled breed. The review ends with a consideration of the limits to the modification of ruminant fats, involving considerations of consumer acceptance as well as animal welfare and environmental effects.

Abstract
Cows on pasture were fed full fat soybeans (toasted, flaked, and pelleted) or ground full fat rapeseeds to investigate effects on cis-9, trans-11-octadecadienoic acid in milk. Three herds of 16 cows each that were on pasture were fed 3.1 kg/d of unmolassed beet pulp (control), 3.0 kg/d of rapeseed concentrate, or 3.1 kg/d of a soybean supplement. The concentration of cis-9, trans-11-octadecadienoic acid in the milk of cows fed the rapeseed and soybean supplements was significantly higher than in the milk of cows fed the control diet during the feeding trial. Over the trial, the cis-9, trans-11-octadecadienoic acid concentration in the milk of individual cows varied from 6.8 to 25.7 mg/g of fat in the control herd, from 10.6 to 33.5 mg/g of fat in the herd fed the rapeseed concentrate, and from 8.8 to 30.5 mg/g of fat in the herd fed the soybean supplement. The concentration of cis-9, cis-12-octadecadienoic acid, the substrate for cis-9, trans-11-octadecadienoic acid synthesis in the rumen, was 4.9 g/100 g of fatty acid methyl esters in the milk fat of cows fed the soybean supplement, 2.5 g/100 g of fatty acid methyl esters in the milk fat of cows fed the rapeseed concentrate, and 2.3 g/100 g of fatty acid methyl esters in the milk fat of the control cows. Milk yield and milk constituent yields were not affected by supplementation of either full fat soybeans or rapeseeds compared with controls, but milk protein concentration was significantly reduced by both oilseed supplements.

Abstract
The predominant fatty acids in milk are the long-chain fatty acids myristic, palmitic and stearic. These saturated fatty acids account for 75% of the total fatty acids, with a further 21% occurring as monounsaturated fatty acids of which the most prevalent is oleic acid. Only 4 g/100 g of the milk fatty acids are polyunsaturated, occurring mainly as linoleic and linolenic acids. All milk fatty acids are derived, almost equally, from either de novo synthesis or directly from preformed fatty acids in the diet. There are four main dietary sources of fatty acids: forages, oilseeds, fish oil and fat supplements. The digestive tract exerts a profound influence on the fate of dietary fatty acids. The short-chain saturated free fatty acids are absorbed through the walls of the rumen or abomasum into the bloodstream. The medium- and longer-chain saturated fatty acids pass into the small intestine, diffuse across the membrane wall where they are incorporated into lipoproteins and enter the bloodstream via the lymphatic system. The majority of unsaturated fatty acids are extensively hydrogenated in the rumen. However, recent work has shown that the levels of certain saturated fatty acids can be reduced and the levels of oleic, linoleic and linolenic fatty acids increased by feeding oilseeds rich in mono- or polyunsaturated fatty acids. In addition, work reported here has confirmed that eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids can be transferred to milk when a diet containing fish oil is fed, but the transfer efficiencies are low.

Abstract
In two experiments (E 1, E 2) two different basic diets were fed to 36 diary cows with addition of 1 or 2 kg of full fat soya beans (SB) or without SB for six weeks. The cows were fed individually. The basic diet consisted of 49% grass silage, 23% maize silage and 21% hay, supplemented with 7% manioc (% DM) in E 1 and of grass, supplemented with 2.0 kg maize silage, 3.0 kg hay and 1.5 kg manioc (kg DM/cow.d) in E 2. The basic diet used in E 1 and the grass in E 2 were offered ad libitum. Further a mixture of 1 kg SB, soya bean meal and manioc (Treatment 1), a mixture of 2 kg SB and manioc (Treatment 2) and a mixture of soya bean meal and manioc (Treatment 3, control), respectively, was supplemented to achieve diets with equivalent concentrations of energy and protein. Depending on the daily milk yield a concentrate was fed to high yielding cows (> 21.5 kg milk in E 1 and > 25.0 kg milk in E 2, respectively). The addition of 1 kg SB increased the forage intake in both experiments by 1.2-1.5 kg DM/cow.d significantly, while the addition of 2 kg SB increased the forage intake only in E1 to the same extent. The mean total DMI was 19.2 kg in E 1 and 17.7 kg in E 2, respectively. The daily milk yield was not influenced by addition of SB. The average milk yield was 28.8 kg and 26.7 kg in E 1 and E 2, respectively. The milk fat content increased significantly in E 1 by 0.3-0.4% with no respect to the amount of the supplied SB (4.11% vs. 3.74%). In E 2 the milk fat content increased only slightly (3.84% vs. 3.74%). Milk protein content was not influenced in E 1, but decreased in E 2 after addition of 2 kg SB.
