Changes in mastitis-causing pathogens, pH and water content in composted manure solids (CMS) prepared from digested slurry were evaluated during turning at 2-day intervals for 8 days (C1-C4). The numbers of streptococci, coagulase-negative staphylococci and coliforms were 2.6 × 10 , 1.7 × 10 and 1.0 × 10 colony-forming units (cfu)/g in CMS (C4) (summer), and these counts were markedly lower (P < 0.05) than those in CMS (C0 and C1). The bacterial counts ranged from 10 to 1.7 × 10 cfu/g in CMS (C4) (summer) and were within approved levels, <1 × 10 cfu/g, indicating a minimal mastitis risk. The temperatures in CMS (C1-C4) increased to 63°C-74°C in summer and 67°C-70°C in winter. The mean pH values in CMS (C0-C4) were 9.2 in summer and 8.7 in winter, and water contents ranged from 61.7% to 69.6% in summer and 73.2% to 66.2% in winter. The significant decrease of pathogenic bacteria in CMS appears to be closely related to temperature >63°C for 8 days, pH 8.7-9.2, and water content 62% to 73%. This study demonstrates that prepared CMS has value as a recycled material with the potential to alleviate udder health issues in dairy cows.
对由消化后的粪浆制备的堆肥固体(CMS)中引起乳腺炎的病原体、pH值和水分含量的变化进行了评估,在8天内每隔2天进行一次翻堆(C1 - C4)。夏季CMS(C4)中链球菌、凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌和大肠菌群的数量分别为2.6×10、1.7×10和1.0×10菌落形成单位(cfu)/克,这些计数显著低于(P < 0.05)CMS(C0和C1)中的计数。夏季CMS(C4)中的细菌计数范围为10至1.7×10 cfu/克,处于批准水平<1×10 cfu/克以内,表明乳腺炎风险极小。CMS(C1 - C4)中的温度在夏季升至63°C - 74°C,冬季升至67°C - 70°C。CMS(C0 - C4)的平均pH值夏季为9.2,冬季为8.7,夏季水分含量范围为61.7%至69.6%,冬季为73.2%至66.2%。CMS中病原菌的显著减少似乎与8天内温度>63°C、pH值8.7 - 9.2以及水分含量62%至73%密切相关。本研究表明,制备的CMS作为一种可回收材料具有价值,有可能缓解奶牛的乳房健康问题。
