Dairy Sheep Grazing Management and Pasture Botanical Composition Affect Milk Macro and Micro Components: A Methodological Approach to Assess the Main Managerial Factors at Farm Level. Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12192675. [PMID: 36230416 PMCID: PMC9559587 DOI: 10.3390/ani12192675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2022] [Revised: 09/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Studies on the management factors that affect milk components at the farm level are important for understanding how to transfer the results from experimental study. Plant phenological stages and partially fresh herbage intakes affect the lactose and milk fatty acid profile. The botanical composition of the grassland partially affects the milk’s phenol content. A few small relationships between plant phenols and milk colour could be of interest to explain the changes in milk colour parameters. Abstract The fatty acid profile, vitamins A and E, cholesterol, antioxidant power colour and the phenols profile of Sarda sheep milk from 11 commercial sheep flocks managed under permanent grassland were investigated. In each farm, the structural and managerial data and milk samples were collected during four periods (sampling dates, SD): January, March, May, and July. Data from the milk composition (fat, protein, casein, lactose, and somatic cell count), 68 fatty acids, 7 phenols, 1 total gallocatechin equivalent, ferric reducing antioxidant power, vitamins A and E, cholesterol, degree of antioxidant protection, and the colour (b *, a * and L *) were analyzed by multivariate factorial analysis using a principal component analysis approach. A proc mixed model for repeated measurement to point out the studied factors affecting significant macro and micro milk composition was also used. Only the first five components were detailed in this paper, with approximately 70% of the explained variance detected. PC1 presented the highest positive loadings for milk lactose, de novo FA synthesis and the BH intermediate, whereas OBCFA had negative loadings values. The PC2, LCFA, UFA, MUFA, vitamins E, and DAP showed positive loadings values, while SFA had a negative value. The PC3 showed a high positive loading for total phenols and non-flavonoids. PC4 presented a high positive loading for the milk macro-composition and negative values for n-3 FAs. The PC5 is characterized by high positive loadings for the a * and L * colour parameters whereas negative loadings were detected for the milk flavonoids content. These preliminary results could help to establish future threshold values for the biomarkers in milk sourced from grazing dairy sheep in natural, permanent pasture-based diets.

Abstract
The lipids in goat milk from Guangdong Province (GGM), Shaanxi Province (SGM), and Inner Mongolia Province (NGM) were analyzed and compared using untargeted lipidomics. A total of 16 lipid sub-classes and 638 lipid molecules were identified in the three groups. The main lipids were diacylglycerol (DG), triacylglycerol (TG), and glycerophosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The contents of glycerophosphatidylcholine (PC), PE, glycerophosphatidylinositol (PI), sphingomyelin (SM), glucosylceramide (GlcCer), lactosylceramide (LacCer), DG, and TG were significantly different (P < 0.05) in three groups. Moreover, 173 significantly different lipids were screened out, and 13 lipid molecules could be applied as potential lipid markers for identifying the geographic region of goat milk. In addition, the related metabolic pathways were also analyzed. A hypothetical scheme was drawn by linking the most relevant metabolic pathways. This work will provide basics for the establishment of the Saanen goat milk traceability system and provide comprehensive lipid information for the goat milk of different regions.

Abstract
Context
The food security of Tunisia is dependent on utilising all of its resources effectively to feed the population. Rangelands used for grazing are subject to continuous degradation, which reduces the availability of feeds to livestock. In the oasis regions, this constraint is attenuated by the systematic use of various by-products of the palm grove. There is a need to constantly search for alternative feed resources to support ruminant-livestock farming in arid regions and, therefore, the products of desert oases need to be exploited
Aims
The present work aimed to determine the effect of the use of local resources of oases on feed intake and milk quality of goats.
Methods
Twenty-four indigenous lactating goats were used to investigate the effect of the substitution of the concentrate feed with alternative feed obtained from oases in Tunisian arid zones. The three study groups in the 60-day trial were as follows: the first group received 0% date waste (WD) + 100% concentrate (CON) + oaten hay; the second group received 50% WD + 30% alfalfa cork (AC) + 20% CON + alfalfa hay; and the third group received 50% WD + 50% AC and no CON + alfalfa hay.
Key results
Feed intake was higher in Group 2 (1167.10 ± 42.8 g DM/day) than in Groups 3 and 1 (1028.9 ± 68.9 and 856.04 ± 58.9 g DM/day respectively. Average daily milk production did not differ among the groups. Dietary fat and crude protein were not affected by the type of ration. The concentrations of saturated fatty acids were similar in the milk of the three groups. In the three groups studied, the ratio n6:n3 (12.80, 8.80 and 6.77) was higher than the recommended value (<5) for human consumption.
Conclusions
The use of WD did not affect milk production but it improved the nutritional quality of milk, especially the composition of fatty acid (ratio n6/n3).
Implications
The use of alternative resources in goat feeding, such as WD and alfalfa cork, can replace the use of market feeds and decrease the costs of animal feed.

Abstract
In ruminant diets, whole oilseeds are potential sources of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which, because they are protected by the intact seed pericarp, may escape rumen biohydrogenation (Murphy et. al., 1990). Some seed coats are highly resistant to microbial and enzymic digestion and seed lipids may therefore be poorly degraded. Mild chemical treatment of oilseeds with sodium hydroxide has been suggested as a way to allow only limited ruminal lipid digestion but more extensive intestinal digestion of seed lipids (Aldrich et. al., 1997). Such treatments may allow the manipulation of milk composition by strategic use of selected oilseeds. Linseed is rich in C18:3n-3, an essential component of a healthy human diet which is normally only present at low levels in cows milk. This study evaluated the effect of inclusion of caustic-treated linseed in dairy cow rations on the protein, fat and fatty acid composition of milk

Abstract
The study tested the hypothesis that certain pastoral forages and olive by-products, available in arid areas, may positively influence fatty acid composition and physicochemical properties of goat's milk. Thirty indigenous goats (body weight = 25.2 kg; age = 4.1 years) were allocated to three groups. During 60 days, the goats received ad libitum either dried olive leaves + Stipa tenacissima (group OL), khortane grass hay (group Ko) or oat hay (control diet, group OH). Milk samples were collected and analysed for total solids, fat, protein, lactose and ash content and fatty acid profile. Average milk yield did not statistically differ among groups. Milk total solids from OL group were higher in comparison with Ko and C groups (15.3, 14.7 and 14.5%, respectively; p < 0.05). Fat content was also higher for the OL group as compared to the other groups (5.44 vs. 5.01 and 4.66%, respectively, for Ko and OH). No significant differences were observed for the milk content of lactose, protein and ash. The percentage of saturated fatty acids of total milk fat was higher in OL and Ko groups compared to the C group (p < 0.001); the milk whereof was characterized by the highest percentage of monounsaturated (p < 0.01) and total unsaturated fatty acids. Milk fat of Ko and C groups showed significantly higher proportions of rumenic (CLA cis-9 trans-11) and vaccenic acids (C18:1 trans-11) compared to OL milk. The feeding system based on Stipa tenacissima and dried olive leaves resulted in the milk lowest proportion of trans-fatty acids and the highest proportion of polyunsaturated ω3-fatty acids (p < 0.05).

Abstract
This study aimed to ascertain the response of goat mammary metabolic pathways to concentrate and lipid feeding in relation to milk fatty acid (FA) composition and secretion. Sixteen midlactation multiparous goats received diets differing in forage-to-concentrate ratio [high forage (HF) 64:36, and low forage (LF) 43:57] supplemented or not with lipids [HF with 130 g/d of oil from whole intact rapeseeds (RS) and LF with 130 g/d of sunflower oil (SO)] in a 4 x 4 Latin square design. Milk yield, milk composition, FA profile, and FA secretion were measured, as well as the expression profiles of key genes in mammary metabolism and of 8,382 genes, using a bovine oligonucleotide microarray. After 3 wk of treatment, milk, lactose, and protein yields were lower with HF-RS than with the other diets, whereas treatment had no effect on milk protein content. Milk fat content was higher with the HF-RS and LF-SO diets than with the HF and LF diets, and SO supplementation increased milk fat yield compared with the LF diet. Decreasing the forage-to-concentrate ratio from 64:36 to 43:57 had a limited effect on goat milk FA concentrations and secretions. Supplementing the LF diet with SO changed almost all the FA concentrations, including decreases in medium-chain saturated FA and large increases in trans C18:1 and C18:2 isomers (particularly trans-11 C18:1 and cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid), without significant changes in C18:0 and cis-9 C18:1, whereas supplementing the HF diet with RS led to a strong decrease in short- and medium-chain saturated FA and a very strong increase in C18:0 and cis-9 C18:1, without significant changes in trans C18:1 and conjugated linoleic acid. Despite the decreases in milk lactose and protein yields observed with HF-RS, and despite the decrease in milk medium-chain FA and the increase in C18 FA secretion with RS or SO supplementation, none of the dietary treatments had any effect on mammary mRNA expression of the key genes involved in lactose (e.g., alpha-lactalbumin), protein (e.g., beta-casein), and lipid metabolism (e.g., lipoprotein lipase) after 3 wk of treatment. In addition, transcriptome analysis did not provide evidence of treatments inducing significant changes in the expression of specific genes in the mammary gland. However, 2-way hierarchical clustering analysis highlighted different global mammary expression profiles between diets, showing that the gene expression profiles corresponding to the same diet were gathered by common groups of genes. This experiment suggests that after 3 wk of dietary treatment, other factors, such as substrate availability for mammary metabolism, could play an important role in contributing to milk FA responses to changes in diet composition in the goat.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to assess the effect of dietary supplementation of cows on pasture with sunflower oil for conjugated linoleic acid (cis-9, trans-11 CLA) enrichment of milk, for the production of CLA-enriched cheese. A group of 40 autumn-calving dairy cows were assigned to either a control group (indoor feeding on grass silage ad libitum and 6 kg/d of a typical indoor concentrate) or an experimental group (on pasture, being fed 6 kg of a supplement containing 100 g/kg of sunflower oil per d). These diets were fed for 16 d, during which time milk was collected for pilot-scale hard cheese manufacture. The pasture-based diet with sunflower oil resulted in a significant effect on the milk fatty acid CLA content. The concentration of cis-9, trans-11 CLA in the milk produced from cows on this diet increased to 2.22 g/100 g of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) after 14 d, compared with 0.46 g/100 g of FAME in milk produced on the control indoor diet. The content of cis-9, trans-11 CLA in the cheese manufactured from the indoor control milk was 0.78 g/100 g of FAME and that from the pasture-based sunflower oil milk was 1.93 g/100 g of FAME. The cheese was assessed during the ripening period and CLA concentrations were stable throughout the 6 mo of ripening. Other cheese variables (microbiology, composition, flavor, free AA) were monitored during the ripening period, and the cheese with the elevated CLA concentrations compared favorably with the control cheese. Thus, a pasture-based diet supplemented with an oil source rich in linoleic acid resulted in an enhanced CLA content of bovine milk fat, compared with an indoor grass silage-based diet.

Abstract
Changing the milk fatty acid composition can improve the nutritional and physical properties of dairy products and their acceptability to consumers. A more healthful milk fatty acid composition can be achieved by altering the cow's diet, for example, by feeding supplemental fish oil (FO) or roasted soybeans (RSB), or by selecting cows with a more unsaturated milk fatty acid composition. We examined whether feeding supplemental FO or RSB to cows that had a more unsaturated milk fatty acid composition acted additively to produce butter with improved fatty acid composition and texture. Using a 3 x 3 Latin square design with 2 replications, we fed diets to multiparous Holstein cows (60 to 200 DIM) chosen for producing either more or less unsaturated milk fatty acid composition (n = 6 for each group) for three 3-wk periods. The control diet contained 3.7% crude fat and the 2 experimental diets contained, on a dry matter basis, 0.8% of additional lipids in the form of 0.9% of FO or 5% of RSB. The milk, collected in the third week of feeding, was used to make butter, which was analyzed for its fatty acid composition and physical properties. Dry matter intake, milk yield, and milk composition were not significantly affected by cow diet or by cow selection. Cows that produced a more unsaturated and healthful milk fat prior to the feeding study, according to a "health-promoting index" [HPI = (sum of % of unsaturated fatty acids)/ (%12:0 + 4 x %14:0 + %16:0)], maintained a higher HPI in their butter during the feeding study than did cows with a low HPI. Milk from cows fed supplemental FO or RSB yielded more unsaturated butters with a higher HPI. This butter also was softer when the cows were fed RSB. Feeding RSB to cows chosen for their high milk HPI yielded the most unsaturated butter with the highest HPI and softest texture. Thus, selecting cows with a more health-promoting milk fatty acid composition and feeding supplemental RSB can be used in combination to produce butter that has a consumer-friendly texture and a healthful fatty acid profile.

Abstract
Eight multiparous Holstein cows averaging 570 +/- 43 kg of body weight and 60 +/- 20 d in milk were used in a double Latin square design with four 21-d experimental periods to determine the effects of feeding ground or whole flaxseed with or without monensin supplementation (0.02% on a dry matter basis) on milk production and composition, feed intake, digestion, blood composition, and fatty acid profile of milk. Intake of dry matter was similar among treatments. Cows fed whole flaxseed had higher digestibility of acid detergent fiber but lower digestibilities of crude protein and ether extract than those fed ground flaxseed; monensin had no effect on digestibility. Milk production tended to be greater for cows fed ground flaxseed (22.8 kg/d) compared with those fed whole flaxseed (21.4 kg/d). Processing of flax-seed had no effect on 4% fat-corrected milk yield and milk protein and lactose concentrations. Monensin supplementation had no effect on milk production but decreased 4% fat-corrected milk yield as a result of a decrease in milk fat concentration. Feeding ground compared with whole flaxseed decreased concentrations of 16:0, 17:0, and cis6-20:4 and increased those of cis6-18:2, cis9, trans11-18:2, and cis3-18:3 in milk fat. As a result, there was a decrease in concentrations of medium-chain and saturated fatty acids and a trend for higher concentrations of long-chain fatty acids in milk fat when feeding ground compared with whole flaxseed. Monensin supplementation increased concentrations of cis9 and trans11-18:2 and decreased concentrations of saturated fatty acids in milk fat. There was an interaction between flaxseed processing and monensin supplementation, with higher milk fat concentration of trans11-18:1 for cows fed ground flaxseed with monensin than for those fed the other diets. Flaxseed processing and monensin supplementation successfully modified the fatty acid composition of milk fat that might favor nutritional value for consumers.

Abstract
The objective was to evaluate the effects of feeding ground canola seed on the fatty acid profile, yield, and composition of milk from dairy cows. Twenty-four multiparous Holstein cows (548.3 +/- 11.9 kg body weight and 28 +/- 9 d in lactation) were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatments: Control (CON) or ground canola seed treatment (GCS) with 14% [of diet dry matter (DM)] of the total ration as ground canola seed containing 34% lipid. Diets contained 20% crude protein, but varied in net energy as a result of fat content differences of 2.5% and 6.4% (DM) for CON and GCS, respectively. Diets were composed of corn, corn silage, alfalfa (50:50 ground hay and haylage, DM basis), soybean and blood meal, and vitamins and minerals. Mechanically extruded canola meal was used in the CON diet to adjust for the protein from canola seed in the GCS diet. Cows were housed in tie-stalls and fed and milked twice daily for 10 wk. The inclusion of ground canola seed did not alter DM intake, weight gain, or body condition score of cows. Milk fat from GCS cows had greater proportions of long-chain fatty acids (> or = 18 carbons) and a lower ratio of n-6 to n-3 fatty acids. Feeding GCS reduced the proportion of short- and medium-chain fatty acids. Milk fat from cows fed GCS had a greater proportion of vaccenic acid and tended to have a higher proportion of cis-9,trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid. Actual and 3.5% fat-corrected milk yields were similar between treatments. The milk fat and protein percentages were lower for GCS cows, but total yield of these components was similar between treatments. Milk urea nitrogen was lower and serum urea nitrogen tended to be lower in cows fed canola seed. Serum glucose, insulin, and nonesterified fatty acids were not altered, but serum triglycerides were higher in GCS cows. Ammonia and total volatile fatty acids tended to be lower in ruminal fluid from GCS cows; rumen pH was unchanged. Feeding canola seed to lactating dairy cows resulted in milk fat with higher proportions of healthful fatty acids without affecting milk yield or composition of milk.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of length of chop of corn silage and forage:concentrate ratio (F:C) on performance and milk fatty acid profiles in dairy cows supplemented with flaxseed. Our hypothesis was that decreasing forage particle length and F:C ratio would increase unsaturated fatty acid flow to the small intestine and subsequent transfer of these unsaturated fatty acids into milk. Eight Holstein cows (648.1 +/- 71.5 kg body weight; 109.6 +/-43.6 days in milk) were used in a replicated 4 x4 Latin square design with 21-d periods and a 2 x2 factorial arrangement of dietary treatments. Dietary factors were: 1) F:C ratios (dry matter basis) of 55:45 and 45:55; and 2) corn silage particle lengths of 9.52 and 19.05 mm. All experimental cows received 1 kg of flaxseed to substitute for 1 kg of a rolled barley grain-based concentrate daily. Diets were fed twice daily as a total mixed ration. Corn silage particle length and F:C ratio had no effect on dry matter intake, milk yield, and milk composition; however, feeding short cut corn silage depressed milk protein yield. Significant particle size xF:C ratio interactions were observed for milk fat proportions of C(16:0), C(18:1) cis-9, and C(18:2) cis-9, trans-11 (a conjugated linoleic acid isomer). At short corn silage particle size, decreasing F:C ratio depressed milk fat proportion of C(16:0). Conversely, feeding short corn silage at high F:C ratio increased the proportion of C(18:1) cis-9 and C(18:2) cis-9, trans-11 in milk fat. The milk fat proportion of C(18:2) trans-10, cis-12, a conjugated linoleic acid isomer that is associated with milk fat depression, was not affected by dietary treatment. Our results show that corn silage particle length and F:C ratio influence milk fatty acid profiles in dairy cows fed supplemental flaxseed as a source of polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Abstract
Effects of a dietary lipid supplement containing calcium salts of fatty acids and methionine hydroxy analogue on plasma prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) metabolite (PGFM) and milk fatty acid profiles were examined in 40 late lactation, nonpregnant, Holstein-Friesian cows for a period of 70 days. Effects on milk production, milk composition, and blood metabolites were also examined. Cows were paired on the basis of lactation number (first lactation, n = 8; second lactation, n = 32) and randomly assigned from within pairs to one of two dietary treatments: unsupplemented control (C) or 400 g per cow per day of the lipid supplement (S). Cows receiving the supplement had higher (P < 0.05) total milk production, total fat production (kg), and total lactose production (kg). Plasma cholesterol was significantly higher (P < 0.01) after 30 days of treatment in cows receiving the supplement. Cows receiving the supplement had lower (P < 0.01) concentrations of short chain milk fatty acids (C4:0 to C14:1) and higher concentrations of long chain fatty acids (C18:1 and C18:2; P < 0.01) than control animals. Oxytocin-induced prostaglandin release on Day 16 postovulation was increased (P < 0.01) in cows receiving the supplement. In conclusion, supplementation with calcium salts of fatty acids and methionine hydroxy analogue significantly increased milk yield and plasma PGFM.

Abstract
Six midlactation Holstein cows were fed a total mixed ration supplemented with either 4.8% canola meal, 3.3% unprotected canola seeds plus 1.5% canola meal, or 4.8% formaldehyde-protected canola seeds, according to a double 3 x 3 Latin square design. Each period lasted 3 wk; experimental analyses were restricted to the last week of each period. Mammary biopsies were taken the last day of each period for gene expression measurements. Milk production and milk protein percentage were reduced by canola seeds, whether protected or unprotected. Protected canola seeds also decreased dry matter intake. Feeding canola seeds reduced the content of C8 to C16 fatty acids in milk and increased the content of oleic acid (C18:1c9). Unprotected canola seeds elevated the concentrations of C18:0. Protected canola seeds increased the C18:2 and C18:3 content, and reduced the C18d:0/C18:1c9 ratio. Similar results were obtained for plasma fatty acids, with some specific features, such as an increased C16:0/C16:1 ratio with protected canola seeds. Canola seeds had no significant effects on insulin, triglycerides, or cholesterol present in serum, but increased the concentration of nonesterified fatty acids; a greater increase was obtained with protected canola seeds. Expression levels of acetyl-CoA carboxylase and delta 9-stearoyl-CoA desaturase genes measured in the mammary gland did not differ significantly between diets. Therefore, the reduced C18s:0/C18:1c9 ratio observed in milk with protected canola seeds was not due to an enhanced expression of the delta-9 desaturase in the mammary gland.

Abstract
Fatty acid composition of plasma triacylglycerides and milk fat was analyzed from Holstein and Jersey cows with control or depleted copper status and fed roasted whole soybeans or tallow. Conjugated linoleic acid in plasma was higher in Jersey cows. Dietary fat source influenced the proportions of all fatty acids in plasma and in milk, except for conjugated linoleic acid in milk. Feeding soybeans increased plasma C14:1, C18:0, C18:2, and conjugated linoleic acid, and decreased C14:0, C16:0, C16:1, and cis- and trans-C18:1 compared with feeding tallow. Low copper diets decreased C18:0 and increased cis- and trans-C18:1, and conjugated linoleic acid in plasma. A fat source x copper status interaction occurred for cis-C18:1 in plasma. Proportions of C4:0 to C14:0 were higher, and cis16:1, cis- and trans-C18:1, and conjugated linoleic acid were lower in milk fat of Jersey compared with Holstein cows. Generally, the effects of copper depletion were less apparent in milk than in plasma. Copper depletion increased C4:0, trans-C18:1, and conjugated linoleic acid, and decreased C16:1 in milk. Feeding whole soybeans increased C4:0 to C14:0, C18:0, C18:2, and C18:3, and decreased C14:1, C16:0, C16:1, and cis- and trans-C18:1 in milk. Breed x fat interactions occurred for C4:0, C14:1, C16:1, and conjugated linoleic acid in milk. Copper status x fat source interaction occurred for trans-C18:1. The breed x copper status interaction was apparent in milk fat for C16:1 and C18:0 and conjugated linoleic acid in milk. Both C18:0 and trans-C18:1 were desaturated by mammary tissue; however, whereas desaturation of C18:0 was linear, desaturation of trans-C18:1 reached a plateau that could have been caused by presence of the trans-10 isomer, which is not desaturated and was not separated from trans-11 C18:1 in our analysis. Comparison of the plasma triacylglycerol fatty acid profile with the milk fat profile was useful to interpret separate events of biohydrogenation in the rumen and desaturation by the mammary gland.

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
Two experiments involving lactating Holstein cows were carried out to quantify the effect of a 550-g supplement of lipids from extruded rapeseed and linseed on milk fatty acid profiles and the susceptibility of milk fat to oxidation. The effect of a daily oral supplement containing 9616 IU of vitamin E (all-rac-alpha-tocopheryl acetate) on milk alpha-tocopherol and protection against oxidation was also evaluated. The intake of oilseeds decreased protein and fat contents in milk, and the proportion of all C18 fatty acids increased. The trans isomers were 2.7 and 10.76% of the milk fatty acids, respectively, for cows fed the control diet and the diet containing extruded rapeseed and linseed. The ratio of oleic to palmitic acid was doubled, and the resistance to oxidation was reduced by 30 to 40% in both experiments. The dietary vitamin E supplement increased the alpha-tocopherol concentration in milk by about 45% and was sufficient to prevent milk fat depression and oxidation. The diet containing oilseeds and supplemented with an adequate amount of vitamin E allowed cows to yield milk that could be used to manufacture butter with high oleic acid content, good spreadability, and resistance to oxidation.

Abstract
Four ruminally fistulated Holstein cows were assigned to one of four total mixed rations (TMR) in a 4 x 4 Latin square with 3-wk periods to investigate the effects of added lipid from nonenzymatically browned soybeans or soybean oil on ruminal metabolism and milk fatty acids. All rations contained 50% forage and 1) 4% added lipid from soybean oil, 2) 4 or 6% added lipid from nonenzymatically browned soybeans, or 3) no added lipid (control). The TMR that contained nonenzymatically browned soybeans increased milk C18:2 by 35% compared with the TMR that contained soybean oil. A lactation trial was conducted in which 60 Holstein cows were assigned to one of five TMR from wk 3 to 18 of lactation. The TMR contained 1) 4.5% added lipid from soybean oil, 2) 1.5% added lipid from nonenzymatically browned soybeans and 3% from soybean oil, 3) 3% added lipid from nonenzymatically browned soybeans and 1.5% from soybean oil, 4) 4.5% added lipid from nonenzymatically browned soybeans, and 5) 4.5% added lipid from Ca salts of long-chain fatty acids. Dry matter intake was reduced by 11% for cows fed the TMR containing soybean oil only compared with that for cows fed the other TMR. Milk C18:2 and C18:3 were increased as the inclusion of nonenzymatically browned soybeans in the TMR increased. All percentages of the nonenzymatically browned soybeans fed to cows resulted in fat-corrected milk yields that were similar to those of cows fed the TMR that contained Ca salts of fatty acids.

Abstract
Nutritional manipulation of the rumen ecosystem provides a strategy to alter the content and composition of milk fat. Dietary fat supplements affect the content and composition of milk fat. The magnitude of changes is influenced by the degree of protection; as protection increases, the deleterious effects fatty acids on microbial activity decreases, and biohydrogenation of C18 unsaturated fatty acids is reduced. In addition, change is influenced by the transfer of dietary fat into milk, which is related to fatty acid composition, degree of ruminal metabolism, and efficiency of digestion. A cascade of metabolic events involving specific nutrients (e.g., trans fatty acids and cyclopropene acids) occurs that regulates the activity of key enzymes in pathways of endogenous fat synthesis within the mammary gland. When cattle are fed oilseeds (e.g., canola and cotton) with > 75% protection from biohydrogenation, the proportion of saturated to unsaturated fatty acids is changed, and the fat content of milk is increased. Human consumption of dairy products containing elevated proportions of C18 mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids reduces the content of cholesterol in plasma low density lipoproteins. These fat-modified dairy products are more susceptible to autoxidation, which can be controlled by including vitamin E in the diet of lactating cow. These products also have much less solid fat, which improves spreadability of butter. By protecting different oilseeds from ruminal metabolism, demands for energy can be satisfied while producing milk fat that can be designed for consumer and manufacturing requirements.

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
Twenty-four multiparous Holstein cows (48 d in lactation) were used in an 8-wk trial employing a completely randomized block design to determine the effect of heat treatment of full fat soybeans on the fatty acid composition of milk fat. Treatments consisted of a total mixed ration supplemented with 1) ground raw, 2) extruded, 3) micronized, or 4) roasted soybeans included at 17.5% of the dry matter of the total mixed ration. Dietary treatment had no effect on body weight, yields of milk or solids-corrected milk, fat percentage, or yield of milk fat or protein. Cows fed ground raw soybeans had a higher dry matter intake and a higher percentage of protein in milk than those fed heat-treated soybeans. The concentrations of saturated fatty acids from C8:0 to C16:0 were lower, and cis-delta-9-C18:1 tended to be higher, in the milk fat of cows fed heat-treated soybeans than in the milk fat of cows fed ground raw soybeans. The concentration of trans-delta-11-C18:1 was lowest for cows fed ground raw soybeans, intermediate for cows fed micronized and roasted soybeans, and highest for cows fed extruded soybeans. Cows fed extruded soybeans had lower concentrations of C18:2 and C18:3 than did cows fed micronized or roasted soybeans; cows fed ground raw soybeans had intermediate concentrations of C18:2 and C18:3.

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.
