<strong>Physiology</strong><br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>Pigs</strong><br />

10–6 was prepared from the content and homogenate. E.<br />

coli was counted on MacConkey agar. Data were analyzed<br />

by 2 × 3 × 2 factorial including the effects <strong>of</strong> culture (content<br />

or homogenate), E. coli strain and site <strong>of</strong> SI with GLM<br />

procedure. t-test was used to analyze the effect <strong>of</strong> genotype<br />

in F4-inoculated culture. The binding <strong>of</strong> E. coli on the tissue<br />

was 10 × higher (P < 0.001) for F4 than F18. F18 was<br />

higher (P < 0.05) in mid-SI, whereas no difference between<br />

sites <strong>of</strong> SI was seen for F4. Fewer (P < 0.001) bacteria<br />

bound in the control and they associated more (P = 0.10) at<br />

distal- than mid-SI. No effect <strong>of</strong> genotype in F4-inoculated<br />

culture was seen. The results suggest that ex vivo model<br />

might be feasible to investigate the ETEC association to the<br />

gut epithelium <strong>of</strong> pigs.<br />

3036 Porcine gut microbial metagenomic library for<br />

mining novel cellulases established from grower pigs<br />

fed cellulose-supplemented high-fat diets. W. Wang, T.<br />

Porcine gut microbiome is a novel genomic resource for<br />

screening novel cellulose-degrading enzymes. A plasmid<br />

metagenomic expression library was constructed from the<br />

hind-gut microbiota <strong>of</strong> grower Yorkshire pigs (25–40 kg) fed<br />

a high-fat basal diet supplemented with 10% Solka-Floc for<br />

28 d. Fresh large intestinal digesta samples were collected<br />

and flash-frozen in liquid N2 and stored under −80°C.<br />

Metagenomic DNA was extracted, mechanically sheared<br />

and cleaned to remove smaller DNA fragments ( 0.05) by hydrolysates treated with corolase<br />

for either 10 or 60 min. Additionally, the hydrolysate not<br />

treated with corolase had a pro-inflammatory effect<br />

on macrophages via PGE 2 stimulation (P < 0.05). In<br />

conclusion, casein hydrolysates produced by pepsin and<br />

corolase treatment downregulated the transcription levels<br />

<strong>of</strong> TGF-β, COX-2 and NFκB.<br />

Key words: cell culture, gene expression, hydrolysates<br />

3038 Growth performance and preference studies to<br />

evaluate solvent-extracted Brassica napus or Brassica<br />

juncea canola meal fed to weaned pigs. J. L. Landero* 1 ,<br />

Conventional dark-seeded (B. napus) canola meal (CM)<br />

and novel yellow-seeded (B. juncea) CM can potentially<br />

replace soybean meal (SBM) in pig diets. Napus and<br />

juncea CM contain 3.8 and 10.8 μmol glucosinolates/g,<br />

respectively, and 3-fold more ADF than SBM (NRC, 1998)<br />

that may affect feed preference and feed intake. Previously<br />

in Exp. 1 and 2, growth performance was evaluated using<br />

220 weaned pigs by replacing dietary SBM with 0, 5, 10, 15<br />

and 20% napus CM (Exp. 1) or 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24% juncea<br />

CM (Exp. 2) for 28 d. In Exp. 3 and 4, preference for diets<br />

containing 20% <strong>of</strong> the 3 feedstuffs was evaluated using 216
