Abstract
Using 378,086 lactation records on dairy cattle, environmental factors influencing acetone and ${\beta}$-hydroxybutyrate acid contents in raw milk which are used as ketosis diagnosis indicator traits were analyzed in this experiment. Significance testing was conducted on farm, lactation stage, parity, milking time and month of age by traits. The results of this experiment indicated that there was a highly significant (p < 0.01) difference in all factors and lactation stage was the most significant factor. Linear regression coefficients of month of age on daily milk yields and acetone and ${\beta}$-hydroxybutyrate acid contents were all positive, while their quadratic linear regression coefficients were negative. Least square means for milk yield at second lactation stage (36~65 days) was 19.06kg which was higher than that of late lactation stage by 6.51kg. Least square means for acetone and ${\beta}$-hydroxybutyrate acid contents at the first lactation stage (5~35 days) were highest (0.1929mM/L and 0.0742mM/L, respectively), and there was a trend that they decreased as the milking progressed, but increased slightly at the late stage of milking. However, least square means for acetone and ${\beta}$-hydroxybutyrate acid contents at the first parity were 0.1414mM/L and 0.0522mM/L, respectively, which were higher than the average milk yield after the second parity. Least square means for acetone and ${\beta}$-hydroxybutyrate acid contents of PM milk yield (0.1372mM/L and 0.0534mM/L, respectively) were higher than those of AM milk yield collectively.
본 연구는 젖소의 검정기록, 378,086개를 이용하여 케토시스 진단 지시형질로 이용되는 유량내 아세톤과 ${\beta}$-히드록시부틸산의 함량에 영향을 미치는 환경요인을 분석하였다. 형질별 목장, 비유단계, 산차, 착유시간 및 월령에 대한 유의성 검정 결과 모든 요인들에서 고도의 유의성 (p < 0.01)이 나타났으며, 가장 큰 환경요인은 비유단계였다. 1회 착유량, 아세톤과 ${\beta}$-히드록시부틸산의 함량에 대한 월령의 1차 회귀계수는 모두 정 (+)의 관계, 2차 회귀계수는 부 (-)의 관계를 나타내었으며, 비유 2단계 (36~65일) 비유량의 최소자승평균은 19.06kg으로 비유말기에 비하여 6.51kg 높았다. 아세톤과 ${\beta}$-히드록시부틸산의 함량에 대한 최소자승평균은 비유 1단계 (5~35일)에서 각각 0.1929mM/L과 0.0742mM/L로 가장 높았으며, 착유일수에 따라 감소하다가 비유말기 소폭 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 1산에 대한 아세톤과 ${\beta}$-히드록시부틸산의 함량의 최소자승평균은 각각 0.1414mM/L과 0.0522mM/L로 2차산 이상의 평균보다 높았으며, 오후착유에 대한 아세톤과 ${\beta}$-히드록시부틸산의 함량의 최소자승평균이 각각 0.1372mM/L과 0.0534mM/L로 오전착유보다 일괄적으로 높게 나타났다.
