Betaine increases net portal absorption of volatile fatty acids in Iberian pigs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Betaine is an osmolyte with the potential to increase volatile fatty acids (VFAs) production and hence improve intestinal health.The present study investigated how betaine affects portal arterial concentrations net absorption (NPA) of VFA in growing Iberian pigs. Eight 30 kg BW barrows indwelling catheters vein, ileal vein carotid artery were randomly assigned a control diet or supplemented 0.5% betaine. Para-aminohippuric acid was infused into as marker determine blood flow using dilution method. Blood samples simultaneously taken from at −60, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300 360 min after feeding 1 200 g diet. The NPA (acetate, propionate, butyrate, valerate, isobutyrate caproate) determined by multiplying porto-arterial plasma concentration differences flow. increased acetate (1.44 fold; P < 0.001) total (0.55 while decreased propionate (−0.38 0.05) valerate (−1.46 compared Estimated heat potentially derived accounted for 0.20–0.27 metabolizable energy maintenance. Acetate most estimated (0.83–0.89). Regarding bacterial communities, apparently did not change DNA abundance fecal bacteria, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Enterobacteriaceae, Bacteroides Clostridium clusters I, IV XIV. In conclusion, appearance VFA, contributing cover maintenance requirements.

The Absorption of Soluble, Volatile Fatty Acids*
Experimental investigations show clearly that the absorption and metabolism of the short chain, water-soluble fatty acids differ in some way from those of the long chain fatty acids insoluble in water. Experiments by Lebedeff (1883), Leube (1895), Zunts (1901), and Eckstein (1929) show no evidence of the butyryl radical in the deposited fat when fed either as a fat or in the form of tributyrin....
متن کاملThe absorption of volatile fatty acids from the rumen.
The fermentation of carbohydrates in the rumen of sheep is known to lead to the formation of large amounts of the lower fatty acids. The important part that these acids assume in the metabolism of ruminants has been remarked upon (Marston, 1939, 1946). While it is believed that acetic, propionic and butyric acids are the main fatty acid products of the fermentation, there is no certain knowledg...
متن کاملNet portal absorption of lactate and volatile fatty acids in steers experiencing glucose-induced acidosis or fed a 70% concentrate diet ad libitum.
Five crossbred steers (347 kg) were surgically fitted with rumen fistulae, hepatic portal, abdominal aorta and mesenteric catheters to measure organic acid absorption from the gut during acute [intraruminal glucose, 12 g/kg body weight (G)] or subacute [ad libitum 70% concentrate diet (C)] acidosis. Samples were taken at time 0, then every 2 h for 48 h after a switch from an alfalfa diet to C, ...
متن کاملPostprandial PYY increase by resistant starch supplementation is independent of net portal appearance of short-chain fatty acids in pigs
Increased dietary fiber (DF) fermentation and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production may stimulate peptide tyrosine-tyrosine (PYY) secretion. In this study, the effects of hindgut SCFA production on postprandial PYY plasma levels were assessed using different experimental diets in a porto-arterial catheterized pig model. The pigs were fed experimental diets varying in source and levels of DF ...
متن کاملTHE ABSORPTION OF VOLATILE FATTY ACIDS FROM THE RUMEN II. THE INFLUENCE OF pH ON ABSORPTION
In a previous paper the relative rates of absorption of acetic acid and propionic acid through the rumen wall were discussed (Gray, 1947a). While the manuscript was being prepared, Danielli, Hitchcock, Marshall & Phillipson (1945) described a series of experiments from which it was evident that the lower homologues of the fatty acids are absorbed through the rumen wall at different rates when t...
