Project description:Stable long-term methanogenic treatment of pre-acidified dairy effluent at high organic loading rates in upflow reactor with anaerobic magnetite-embedded granular sludge
Project description:Anaerobic digestion is a popular and effective microbial process for waste treatment. The performance of anaerobic digestion processes is contingent on the balance of the microbial food web in utilizing various substrates. Recently, co-digestion, i.e., supplementing the primary substrate with an organic-rich co-substrate has been exploited to improve waste treatment efficiency. Yet the potential effects of elevated organic loading on microbial functional gene community remains elusive. In this study, functional gene array (GeoChip 5.0) was used to assess the response of microbial community to the addition of poultry waste in anaerobic digesters treating dairy manure. Consistent with 16S rRNA gene sequences data, GeoChip data showed that microbial community compositions were significantly shifted in favor of copiotrophic populations by co-digestion, as taxa with higher rRNA gene copy number such as Bacilli were enriched. The acetoclastic methanogen Methanosarcina was also enriched, while Methanosaeta was unaltered but more abundant than Methanosarcina throughout the study period. The microbial functional diversity involved in anaerobic digestion were also increased under co-digestion.
Project description:Supplementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product modulates dairy cows health by reducing incidence and severity of mastitis, one of the most common and economically important diseases of the dairy industry. However, mechanisms remain unclear. We conducted a comprehensive molecular analysis, along with physiological data, on dairy cows supplemented for 45 days with NutriTek, a commercially available S. cerevisiae fermentation product, and then subjected to a mastitis challenge . NutriTek supplementation improved cow’s responses to a mastitis challenge by stimulating influx of immune cells to the mammary gland , enhancing their bactericidal capacity, and protecting mammary tissues from the side effect of an immune response allowing faster and more complete recovery from milk production drop
