Comparison of Metabolic Profile in Gurcu Goats Depending on Feeding Periods

Abstract

 In the purpose of this research is to determine the metabolic profile of the Gurcu goat during the feeding period in local conditions. In this research, 30 Gurcu goats, which are kept in the Kafkas University Veterinary Faculty farm, were used. During the grass and pasture feeding, the animals were fed by grazing in the natural meadows and pasture. And also before and after the grass and pasture, they were fed with grasses that were dried by mowing from these area. Crucial metabolic values were measured by taking blood samples from goats before grass and pasture feeding, during grass and pasture feeding, and post grass and pasture feeding. When the results from collected samples during these different feeding intervals are analyzed, significant differences in NEFA, BHBA, total cholesterol, and urea were observed (P <0.01). However, there were no significant differences in albumin and globulin values (P> 0.05). With this research, it has been concluded that depending on the nutritional conditions, changes may occur in the metabolic profile of the Gurcu goat depending on the nutritional conditions. It is also concluded that the data obtained from this research can be used as a reference work for the breed.

Gürcü Keçilerinde Metabolik Profilin Beslenme Dönemlerine Göre Karşılaştırılması

Öz

Çalışmada Gürcü keçisinin yöresel şartlarda beslenme dönemlerindeki metabolik profilinin belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Çalışmada Kafkas Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi uygulama çiftliğinde barındırılan 30 adet Gürcü keçisi kullanıldı. Hayvanlar çayır-mera beslemesi döneminde doğal çayır ve merada otlatılarak, mera dönemi öncesi ve sonrasında ise otlatıldığı alan biçilerek kurutulan çayır-mera otlarıyla beslendi. Keçilerden çayır-mera öncesi, çayır-mera dönemi ve çayır-mera sonrası besleme dönemlerinde kanlar alınarak bazı metabolik parametreler ölçüldü. Elde edilen analiz sonuçlarında esterleşmemiş yağ asidi (NEFA), β-hidroksi bütirik asit (BHBA), total kolesterol ve üre değerlerinde beslenme dönemleri arasındaki farklılıklar önemli bulundu (P<0.01). Albumin ve globulin değerlerinde ise önemli bir farklılık gözlenmedi (P>0.05). Çalışma sonunda beslenme şartlarına bağlı olarak Gürcü keçisinin metabolik profilinde değişiklikler meydana gelebileceği ve elde edilen verilerin ırk için referans olarak kullanılabileceği sonucuna varıldı.
