Concentrated separator by-product (CSB) is produced when beet molasses goes through an industrial desugaring process. To investigate the nutritional value of CSB as a supplement for grass hay diets (12.5% CP; DM basis), 4 ruminally and duodenally cannulated beef steers (332 +/- 2.3 kg) were used in a 4 x 4 Latin square with a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Factors were intake level: ad libitum (AL) vs. restricted (RE; 1.25% of BW, DM basis) and dietary CSB addition (0 vs. 10%; DM basis). Experimental periods were 21 d in length, with the last 7 d used for collections. By design, intakes of both DM and OM (g/kg of BW) were greater (P < 0.01; 18.8 vs. 13.1 +/- 0.69 and 16.8 vs. 11.7 +/- 0.62, respectively) for animals consuming AL compared with RE diets. Main effect means for intake were not affected by CSB (P = 0.59). However, within AL-fed steers, CSB tended (P = 0.12) to improve DMI (6,018 vs. 6,585 +/- 185 g for 0 and 10% CSB, respectively). Feeding CSB resulted in similar total tract DM and OM digestion compared with controls (P = 0.50 and 0.87, respectively). There were no effects of CSB on apparent total tract NDF (P = 0.27) or ADF (P = 0.35) digestion; however, apparent N absorption increased (P = 0.10) with CSB addition. Total tract NDF, ADF, or N digestion coefficients were not different between AL- and RE-fed steers. Nitrogen intake (P = 0.02), total duodenal N flow (P = 0.02), and feed N escaping to the small intestine (P = 0.02) were increased with CSB addition. Microbial efficiency was unaffected by treatment (P = 0.17). Supplementation with CSB increased the rate of DM disappearance (P = 0.001; 4.9 vs. 6.9 +/- 0.33 %/h). Restricted intake increased the rate of in situ DM disappearance (P = 0.03; 6.4 vs. 5.3 +/- 0.33 %/h) compared with AL-fed steers. Ruminal DM fill was greater (P = 0.01) in AL compared with RE. Total VFA concentrations were greater (P = 0.04) for CSB compared with controls; however, ammonia concentrations were reduced (P = 0.03) with CSB addition. At different levels of dietary intake, supplementing medium-quality forage with 10% CSB increased N intake, small intestinal protein supply, and total ruminal VFA.
当甜菜糖蜜经过工业脱糖过程时会产生浓缩分离器副产品(CSB)。为了研究CSB作为禾本科干草日粮(12.5%粗蛋白;干物质基础)补充料的营养价值,选用4头安装了瘤胃和十二指肠瘘管的肉用公牛(332±2.3千克),采用4×4拉丁方设计,处理采用2×2析因排列。因素包括采食量水平:自由采食(AL)与限饲(RE;体重的1.25%,干物质基础)以及日粮中CSB添加量(0与10%;干物质基础)。试验期为21天,最后7天用于收集数据。按照设计,与限饲日粮相比,自由采食的动物干物质和有机物质摄入量(克/千克体重)更高(P<0.01;分别为18.8对13.1±0.69和16.8对11.7±0.62)。采食量的主效应均值不受CSB影响(P = 0.59)。然而,在自由采食的公牛中,CSB有提高干物质采食量的趋势(P = 0.12)(分别为0和10%CSB时,干物质采食量为6018对6585±185克)。与对照组相比,饲喂CSB导致全消化道干物质和有机物质消化率相似(分别为P = 0.50和0.87)。CSB对表观全消化道中性洗涤纤维(P = 0.27)或酸性洗涤纤维(P = 0.35)消化率没有影响;然而,添加CSB后表观氮吸收增加(P = 0.10)。自由采食和限饲的公牛之间全消化道中性洗涤纤维、酸性洗涤纤维或氮消化系数没有差异。添加CSB后氮摄入量(P = 0.02)、十二指肠总氮流量(P = 0.02)和进入小肠的饲料氮量(P = 0.02)增加。微生物效率不受处理影响(P = 0.17)。添加CSB提高了干物质消失率(P = 0.001;4.9对6.9±0.33%/小时)。与自由采食的公牛相比,限饲提高了原位干物质消失率(P = 0.03;6.4对5.3±0.33%/小时)。自由采食时瘤胃干物质充盈度比限饲时更高(P = 0.01)。与对照组相比,CSB组总挥发性脂肪酸浓度更高(P = 0.04);然而,添加CSB后氨浓度降低(P = 0.03)。在不同采食量水平下,用10%CSB补充中等质量饲草可增加氮摄入量、小肠蛋白质供应和瘤胃总挥发性脂肪酸。
