Dr. Zimmerman presented a Real Science Lecture webinar on December 12th, 2023, titled “Not All Rumen-Protected Products Are Created Equal.” You can find the webinar recording at balchem.com/realscience.  Clay outlines four attributes of a good rumen-encapsulated product. They are feed and TMR stable, ruminal stable, nutrient bioavailability, and good efficacy biologically in the animal.  (6:21)Kari describes a TMR stability test that Balchem has been perfecting based on a paper published in 2016. One to two grams of a rumen-protected product (based on the nutrient composition) is mixed with a half pound of TMR in a Ziploc bag, then the mixture incubates for 0, 6, 12 or 24 hours (based on feeding 1x, 2x, or 3x per day). Once a sample is finished incubating, it's placed in a strainer bag in one liter of distilled water for one minute. Then, the amount of nutrient that was leached into the distilled water is measured. She describes some of the observations and trends they've seen from using this technique on different products. (8:24)Mark asks about the impact of abrasion during the mixing process on encap stability. Kari describes a mineral mix technique using a small ribbon and paddle mixer. In this case, 5-10 pounds of encap product are mixed with 90-95 pounds of a mineral mix for three minutes. Then a sample is analyzed for damage to the encap. Clay does not recommend pelleting any encapsulated product because that will only reduce efficacy. It may not be 100% damage, but it will be significant. (12:41)Scott asks about the freeze-thaw stability of encapsulates. Clay mentions that all of Balchem's encapsulated products are freeze-thaw stable. If a product is not, there will be cracks in the coating and some ruminal stability will be lost. (19:34)When it comes to ruminal stability, matrix encapsulates tend to have lower stability in the rumen, but it varies widely. Some have no ruminal stability; some lose less than 10% in the rumen. Encapsulation is a complex process and there are tradeoffs between some of the steps. For example, between TMR stability or rumen stability and bioavailability, the goal is to find the perfect mix of these to make a high-efficacy product on the farm. Kari describes a rumen stability test that can be conducted on-farm for protected choline and lysine products. Mark describes in situ experiments for rumen stability testing using small Dacron bags in rumen-cannulated animals. He mentions that creating an encap with high rumen stability and high intestinal digestibility is key.  (19:58)Bioavailability is key, but methodologies for assessing bioavailability are a limitation. Kari and Mark discuss the pros and cons of various in situ/in vivo techniques, including mobile bag, abomasal pulse dose, and stable isotope. (29:25)Clay mentions that in vitro techniques are a key piece to product development and testing, but may give erroneous results compared to in vivo testing. Kari describes an experiment she conducted with Mark comparing in vivo and in vitro techniques. She suggests that there may be an argument for creating specific in vitro tests built for different types of protected products.  For example, for a pH-sensitive product, a step mimicking abomasal enzymes would be important. For a fat-coated product, a step mimicking intestinal enzymes for fat breakdown would be important. Clay cautions that a product with only in vitro data should be regarded with skepticism. (44:25)Biological response in the animal is the key final step. Ultimately, you want independent, peer-reviewed data to prove the efficacy of a product. Mark reminds the audience that even if animals don't respond to a product, there are a host of different issues that could be causing that unrelated to the product being tested. Things like water quality, water quantity, stress, cow comfort - there's a whole laundry list of things to consider. (50:39)In closing, Kari recommends that when picking an encap product, ask for the research that hits the four pillars: TMR stability, rumen stability, bioavailability, and animal performance. Mark suggests that you can't make a bad encap good, but you can make a good encap bad if you aren't careful. Clay agrees that the more data, the better. Lastly, we need more work on the feed stability pillar which has been overlooked. It is a critical piece to encap products being effective in the field.

This episode comes to you from the 2024 Tri-State Dairy Nutrition Conference, where Balchem sponsored a Real Science symposium titled “New Discussions in Amino Acid Nutrition.” Each of our guests presented at the symposium, and their presentations can be found at balchem.com/realsciencemediaDr. Van Amburgh presented “Amino Acid Nutrition for Maximizing Milk Component Yield.” When considering nitrogen efficiency, we generally compare intake nitrogen, which includes non-protein nitrogen, against milk nitrogen. In high producing cows, aggregate amino acid values are running about 70 to 73% efficiency. But when we work that up to total intake nitrogen, then we're down to 30 to 35% efficiency range. How do we reconcile ruminal nitrogen requirements to a point where we can optimize the capture of recycled nitrogen and reduce the amount of nitrogen that's being excreted in the urine? (2:27)Dr. Hanigan presented “Understanding Amino Acid Bioavailability.” Our current methods for measuring bioavailability don't all have the same precision. One of the classic methods, intestinal disappearance, has very low precision. Methods that rely on dilution of a marker or a label in blood or milk have much higher precision. Dr. Hanigan's lab has worked to modify a carbon-13 labeled amino acid method to allow for evaluating changes in the supply of amino acids in the diet.  (5:01)Dr. Lee presented “Current Understandings of Lysine Nutrition in Dairy Cattle.” Rumen-protected lysine has more variable responses than rumen-protected methionine or histidine. Amino acid requirements were developed based on the role of amino acids as the building blocks of protein. But there are many roles of amino acids which may influence their requirements. Dr. Lee suggests including that type of information in our modeling may increase the consistency of responses to feeding rumen-protected lysine. (11:24)Dr. Hristov presented “Histidine: A Limiting Amino Acid for Dairy Cows.” His group has worked with rumen-protected histidine to develop a dataset to define requirements. Microbial protein has considerably less histidine than methionine yet they are secreted at about the same level in milk and are metabolized similarly. All this together points to a higher histidine requirement. (18:02)The panelists agree that the advent of genomics have resulted in a rapid change in high producing cows and with that, their amino acid requirements (and other nutrients) are also changing. It's a challenge for feeding and nutrition programs to keep up with rapid genetic change. (21:02)A question was posed by the audience about how Dr. Van Amburgh used amino acids to increase butter fat. In the research he presented, the diets did not overfeed fat and fed a blend of fatty acids, and also increased the sugar and pulled back the starch. (28:35)A discussion of histidine follows, including its unique body reserves, its role in hemoglobin concentrations, and its potential impacts on metabolic energy efficiency (34:08)Dr. Zimmerman asks about plasma histidine in very early lactation cows. Dr. Hristov is currently conducting a fresh cow experiment to assess this. His hypothesis is that because of low dry matter intake and high metabolic demand for amino acids, there will be a response to histidine supplementation. Dr. Lee agrees and feels that the fresh cow stage may be one of the most practical ways we can utilize rumen-protected histidine (39:39)A question from the audience about the use of blood meal in lower protein diets sparks a spirited discussion among the panelists. (41:55)In closing, each panelist provides a takeaway. Responses range from bioavailability of rumen-protected products to challenges to progress for ruminant amino acid research to comparing biological potential and economic response.

According to the National Weather Service, there could be another round of patchy fog before 9 a.m. in the Cedar Rapids area, so be careful on your morning commute. After this it will be a high of 29 degrees with sunny skies and a calm wind. It will become increasingly cloudy Tuesday night into Wednesday, and cloudy it is predicted to remain for several days after. Iowa reported 42 more deaths from COVID-19 on Monday, bringing the state's death toll to 3,992 so far. Hospitalizations and new cases have continued to drop, which continues a good news trend in the state. One thing to watch out for is a high positivity rate, still, with approximately 44 percent of those tested for the novel coronavirus coming out positive on Monday. The boom in cases and hospitalizations that followed late last year coincided with Iowa having one of the highest positivity rates in the nation in October and November. Police announced Monday that an 18-year-old woman who was shot on Dec. 22 in southwest Cedar Rapids was declared “legally deceased” four days later — on Dec. 26. The Cedar Rapids Police Department identified the woman as Marisa Doolin of Cedar Rapids. Doolin was found at 3:25 p.m. Dec. 22 in a second-floor apartment at 2110 Westdale Dr. SW, police said. Investigators said she had sustained a life-threatening gunshot wound. No arrests have been made, police said, and an investigation is ongoing. The police department also released the identity of the first recorded homicide in Cedar Rapids in 2021. Police identified Sunday's fatal shooting victim who was declared dead at Mercy Medical Center as Jayson Lee Jones, 21, of Cedar Rapids. According to police, Jones was shot at a residence at 818 11th Ave. SE. Jones was taken by private vehicle to the hospital at about 2:16 a.m., where he was pronounced dead a short time later. Police have not released details as to what happened leading up to the shooting, but an investigation is underway. To celebrate the 2020 centennial of the Iowa state park system, the Department of Natural Resources planted at least 100,000 trees last year , nearly triple the number planted in a typical year. The milestone planting commemorated not only the 100th anniversary of the state park system, but also the centennial of the National Association of State Foresters. Members of the association participated in the 2020 Centennial Challenge to plant millions of trees across the United States. The native Iowa trees were supplied by the https://nursery.iowadnr.gov/ (State Forest Nursery) and planted in Iowa's four state forests, dozens of wildlife management areas and 23 of its state parks, according to Emma Hanigan, urban forestry coordinator. In addition to DNR funds, the plantings were aided by a grant from the Arbor Day Foundation. Hanigan estimated the grant covered the internal production costs of about 55,200 seedlings.

If you know an entrepreneur, they'll tell you that being in business for yourself is a pretty lonely existence.  Many people say they want to own their own business, but only a small fraction of people actually do, so it's difficult to find other entrepreneurs who understand the struggle.   For this reason, we are using the platform of our podcast to connect with and give exposure to entrepreneurs in our community that we vibe with.  This week, we highlight Daniel Johnson, one half of the Hanigan and Johnson orthodontics practice in our local community.   Through his practice, Daniel recently built a commercial building from the ground up.  Daniel also tells his personal story, touching on his missionary work in South America, his military service, and how he found his partner to start his practice shortly after orthodontics school.   Karen and Daniel have a number of things in common, which we explore in the episode.  They are both triathletes, and they both use their businesses as a vehicle to give back to the communities they serve.   You can find Hanigan & Johnson at www.straighttooth.com or you can call the office at 832-777-7001.

Alex talks about another busy week for the Red Sox inside this edition of "Without a Curse," as the team continues to wheel and deal. Will Middlebrooks was shipped to the Padres for back-up catcher Ryan Hanigan last week, and Alex says the trade is far more about what Middlebrooks wasn't in Boston than what Hanigan could be. Even with the scarcity of power in baseball, the Red Sox traded Middlebrooks for a spare part. That's a damning commentary on him. Alex also looks at the state of the Red Sox entering 2015, and tries to determine whether this is a playoff team as currently constructed. The Padres' aggressiveness is discussed in the "Around the League" segment along with the implications of the U.S.' normalized relations with Cuba for MLB. Will Cuba become another Dominican Republic? Thanks for listening to the show for all of 2014. This is a labor of love, and listeners like you make all of the work worth it.
