The experimental results show that temperature influences the SEU cross section on the rising portion of the cross-sectional curve(such as the chlorine ion incident). SEU cross section increases 257 %when the temperature increases from 215 to 353 K. One of the possible reasons for this is that it is due to the variation in upset voltage induced by changing temperature.展开更多

This study investigated the effects of fermented cottonseed meal（FCSM） on lipid metabolites, lipid metabolism-related gene expression in liver tissues and abdominal adipose tissues, and hepatic metabolomic profiling...This study investigated the effects of fermented cottonseed meal（FCSM） on lipid metabolites, lipid metabolism-related gene expression in liver tissues and abdominal adipose tissues, and hepatic metabolomic profiling in broiler chickens. One hundred and eighty 21-d-old broiler chickens were randomly divided into three diet groups with six replicates of 10 birds in each group. The three diets consisted of a control diet supplemented with unfermented cottonseed meal, an experimental diet of cottonseed meal fermented by Candida tropicalis, and a second experimental diet of cottonseed meal fermented by C. tropicalis plus Saccharomyces cerevisae. The results showed that FCSM intake significantly decreased the levels of abdominal fat and hepatic triglycerides（P〈0.05 for both）. Dietary FCSM supplementation down-regulated the m RNA expression of fatty acid synthase and acetyl Co A carboxylase in liver tissues and the lipoprotein lipase expression in abdominal fat tissues（P〈0.05 for both）. FCSM intake resulted in significant metabolic changes of multiple pathways in the liver involving the tricarboxylic acid cycle, synthesis of fatty acids, and the metabolism of glycerolipid and amino acids. These findings indicated that FCSM regulated lipid metabolism by increasing or decreasing the expression of the lipid-related gene and by altering multiple endogenous metabolites. Lipid metabolism regulation is a complex process, this discovery provided new essential information about the effects of FCSM diets in broiler chickens and demonstrated the great potential of nutrimetabolomics in researching complex nutrients added to animal diets.展开更多
