Apart from milk somatic cell count(SCC) and somatic cell score(SCS), serum cytokines such as interleukin-17(IL-17) and interleukin-4(IL-4) may also be potential indicators for bovine mastitis. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) in bovine IL-17 F and IL-17 A genes on SCC, SCS and serum cytokines in Chinese Holstein and Inner-Mongolia Sanhe cattle, and to compare the m RNA expression variations of the cows with different genotypes.Results: A total of 464 lactating cows(337 Holstein and 127 Inner-Mongolia Sanhe cattle) were screened for SNPs identification and the data were analyzed using fixed effects of herd, parity, season and year of calving by general linear model procedure. The results revealed that SNP g.24392436 C > T in IL-17 F and SNP g.24345410 A > G in IL-17 A showed significant effects on SCC and IL-4 in Holstein(n = 337) and on IL-17 and IL-4 in Sanhe cattle(n = 127). The homozygous GG genotype of SNP g.24345410 A > G had significantly higher m RNA expression compared with the heterozygous AG genotype.Conclusions: The results indicate that IL-17 F and IL-17 A could be powerful candidate genes of mastitis resistance and the significant SNPs might be useful genetic markers against mastitis in both dairy and dual purpose cattle.展开更多
In this work,the solubility data and liquid-phase mass transfer coefficients of hydrogen(H2),methane(CH4)and their mixtures in vacuum gas oil(VGO)at temperatures(353.15-453.15 K)and pressures(1-7 MPa)were measured,whi...In this work,the solubility data and liquid-phase mass transfer coefficients of hydrogen(H2),methane(CH4)and their mixtures in vacuum gas oil(VGO)at temperatures(353.15-453.15 K)and pressures(1-7 MPa)were measured,which are necessary for catalytic cracking process simulation and design.The solubility of H2 and CH4 in VGO increases with the increase of pressure,but decreases with the increase of temperature.Henry’s constants of H2 and CH4 follow the relation of In H=-413.05/T+5.27 and In H=-990.67/T+5.87,respectively.The molar fractions of H2 and system pressures at different equilibrium time were measured to estimate the liquid-phase mass transfer coefficients.The results showed that with the increase of pressure,the liquid-phase mass transfer coefficients increase.Furthermore,the solubility of H2 and CH4 in VGO was predicted by the predictive COSMO-RS model,and the predicted values agree well with experimental data.In addition,the gas-liquid equilibrium(GLE)for H2+CH4+VGO system at different feeding gas ratios in volume fraction(i.e.,H285%+CH415%and H290%+CH410%)was measured.The selectivity of H2 to CH4 predicted by the COSMO-RS model agrees well with experimental data.This work provides the basic thermodynamic and dynamic data for fuel oil catalytic cracking processes.展开更多
