Authors: Verdier Thomas , Balthazard Lesmie , Montibus Mathilde , Magniont Camille , Evon Philippe , Bertron Alexandra
Published: August 2020

In the indoor environment, the growth of microorganisms on building materials leads to the deterioration of both the materials and indoor air quality. As bio-based building materials usually contain cellulose or derivatives, they are likely to be much more sensitive to such degradation. Using glycerol esters could be a way to protect bio-based materials from microorganisms. Indeed, previous studies have highlighted the significant antimicrobial effect of glycerol esters and they are commonly used in the food industry as antimicrobial agents. In addition, as glycerol is a valuable by-product of the agroindustry, it would be an eco-friendly alternative, consistent with human health, to the classic ways of protecting bio-based materials against microorganisms. This study is part of a project that aims to (a) assess the hygrothermal performances and reaction to fire of sunflower panels and (b) study the antimicrobial efficiency of glycerol esters for the protection of such bio-based materials from microbial proliferation. The materials presented physical, thermal and hygroscopic properties similar to those of bio-based materials such as wood or hemp, encouraging their use as insulation materials. In addition, the glycerol esters showed significant antimicrobial effects but also a susceptibility to flammability. One unanticipated finding was that the untreated insulation material made of sunflower pith was classified as non-flammable.
Nephron Progenitor Maintenance Is Controlled through Fibroblast Growth Factors and Sprouty1 Interaction
Authors: Huh Sung-Ho , Ha Ligyeom , Jang Hee-Seong
Published: August 2020

Significance Statement

Nephrons are derived from nephron progenitor cells. Nephron progenitors are depleted during kidney development, which makes the kidney unable to regenerate nephrons. Therefore, understanding the signaling molecules that regulate nephron progenitor cell generation and maintenance is of great interest for kidney regeneration. Sprouty1 regulates nephron progenitor maintenance by inhibiting Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling. Deletion of Sprouty1 rescues renal agenesis and nephron progenitor depletion in Fgf9/20 loss-of-function kidneys. Deletion of one copy of Fgf8 further decreases FGF signaling, which blocks kidneys’ response to Sprouty1, resulting in failure of nephron progenitor maintenance. This study thus identifies the reciprocal functioning of FGF-Sprouty1 signaling during nephron progenitor development.

Background

Nephron progenitor cells (NPCs) give rise to all segments of functional nephrons and are of great interest due to their potential as a source for novel treatment strategies for kidney disease. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling plays pivotal roles in generating and maintaining NPCs during kidney development, but little is known about the molecule(s) regulating FGF signaling during nephron development. Sprouty 1 (SPRY1) is an antagonist of receptor tyrosine kinases. Although SPRY1 antagonizes Ret-GDNF signaling, which modulates renal branching, its role in NPCs is not known.

Methods

Spry1, Fgf9, and Fgf20 compound mutant animals were used to evaluate kidney phenotypes in mice to understand whether SPRY1 modulates FGF signaling in NPCs and whether FGF8 functions with FGF9 and FGF20 in maintaining NPCs.

Results

Loss of one copy of Spry1 counters effects of the loss of Fgf9 and Fgf20, rescuing bilateral renal agenesis premature NPC differentiation, NPC proliferation, and cell death defects. In the absence of SPRY1, FGF9, and FGF20, another FGF ligand, FGF8, promotes nephrogenesis. Deleting both Fgf8 and Fgf20 results in kidney agenesis, defects in NPC proliferation, and cell death. Deleting one copy of Fgf8 reversed the effect of deleting one copy of Spry1, which rescued the renal agenesis due to loss of Fgf9 and Fgf20.

Conclusions

SPRY1 expressed in NPCs modulates the activity of FGF signaling and regulates NPC stemness. These findings indicate the importance of the balance between positive and negative signals during NPC maintenance.
Molecular characterization using SSR markers in 50 shrub pea genotypes (Pisum sativum L.) from the GRICAND Collection, Colombia
Authors: Duque-Zapata Juan Diego , Muñoz Jaime Eduardo , Checa-Coral Oscar
Published: August 2020

The pea (Pisum sativum L.) is one of the more important legume crops produced globally. We studied the structure and genetic diversity in a collection of 50 pea accessions with 16 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, whose average polymorphic information content (PIC) was 0.62. The SSR markers amplified a total of 28 alleles with an average of 4 alleles per locus, with locus AB71 and D21 amplifying the largest number of alleles (6). The observed heterozygosity (Ho) was 0.09±0.08 and the expected heterozygosity (He) was 0.42, indicating an elevated level of inbreeding (Fis = 0.60). The genetic relationships were inferred with a similarity index (DICE) and a bayesian analysis (STRUCTURE), detecting 2 clusters for the genotypes, with a high similarity of the morphological characteristics of each genotype. The results of this study will be useful for the creation of future breeding programs.The pea (Pisum sativum L.) is one of the more important legume crops produced globally.

Published: August 2020

One of the main difficulties in the organic, no-tillage system is weed management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the association between mechanical and cultural control methods (reduction of spacing and consortium with Canavalia ensiformis DC) on weed phytosociology and grain yield in maize with the organic, no-tillage system. The experiment design was a randomized complete block design with four replications, in a 2×3×2 factorial scheme, where the factors were, first factor: presence and absence of C. ensiformis; second factor: three weed management methods (without control, mowing and weeding), and third factor: two maize spacings (0.4 and 0.8 m). We evaluated the phytosociology of the weed community in maize stages V4 and V8, maize yield and dry matter of C. ensiformis. In the V4 stage, 21 weed species were identified, which were reduced to 16 species in V8. Cyperus rotundus presented a higher IR (Importance Value Index) in V4, and Panicum maximum had the highest IR in V8, independent of management. The C. ensiformis consortium with maize with 0.8 m spacing and weeding provided a higher grain yield.

Published: August 2020

The tomato crop has a high productive potential that can be depleted by biotic and abiotic stresses. Increased plant resilience to stress conditions has been reported with foliar applications of soil-mineral compounds; however, it is necessary to better understand how plants react to the use of this compound. Thus, this study evaluated the effect of foliar applications of a soil-mineral compound on the physiological and growth attributes of tomato plants. This experiment was carried out in Lagoa Formosa/MG during 2016. Different rates of the soil-mineral compound were used during the crop cycle, forming four distinct managements. The management consisted of different doses of the mineral compound in four stages after transplanting the tomato seedlings. The experiment design used randomized blocks. The following physiological evaluations were performed: total soluble protein, hydrogen peroxide, nitrate reductase enzyme activity, urease, superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase, phenylalanine ammonia lyase, and lipid peroxidation (LP). The growth assessments were plant biomass and yield. Foliar applications of the soil-mineral compound increased the activity of the SOD enzyme by 4.17 and 6.25%. The use of the soil-mineral compound also increased the LP activity and reduced the antioxidant enzyme activity. The foliar application of the soil-mineral compost at doses of 0.5, 0.750, 1.0 and 1.0 kg ha-1 at 15, 25, 40 and 60 days after transplanting, respectively, increased the yield of the table tomatoes by 20%.

Published: August 2020

This study aimed to evaluate the growth and quality of lisianthus cultivated in different rice husk substrates. The evaluated substrates were: carbonized rice husk (CRH; 100%); raw rice husk (RRH; 100%); CRH (70%) + S10 Beifort® commercial organic compost (30%); and RRH (70%) + S10 Beifort® commercial organic compost (30%). Plant dry mass (DM) production and partitioning, plant leaf area and shoot/root DM ratio were analyzed. Quality parameters of the flower stems were also evaluated (length; diameter and number of flowers and buds). The RRH substrate at 100% reduced plant growth and prevented flower development. This modified dry mass partitioning among the plant organs. The substrates RRH + S10 and CRH provided quality flower stems. Thus, both substrates can be used to produce cut lisianthus flowers in recirculating nutrient systems. However, the RRH + S10 substrate stood out because it increased plant growth. This result is ascribed to the improvement of the physical and chemical properties of substrate RRH + S10 as a result of the presence of both the organic compost, which benefited the water holding capacity, and the RRH, which guaranteed high porosity to the substrate.
Damage levels caused by Capulinia linarosae Kondo & Gullan (Hemiptera: Eriococcidae) on guava crops under two agronomic management practices in the south of lake Maracaibo, Venezuela
Authors: Redondo-Méndez Jean Franco , Molina-Molina Misael
Published: August 2020

The objective of the present study was to test the hypothesis of no difference in the level of damage caused by the guava cottony scale Capulinia linarosae (Hemiptera: Eriococcidae) in two guava crops under different agronomic management practices: a crop whose management practices tend to be organic (PUA) was compared with another subjected to chemical methods (PUB). Forty plants in each farm were selected randomly to estimate damage on stems, branches, leaves, and fruits. Levels of damage were statistically different (P<0.0001) between the control methods for stems and branches, but not for leaves or fruits (P>0.05). It was concluded that the magnitude of damage is greater in the crop under chemical control and that agronomic management is a critical factor. Excess of insecticides and incorrect application of pruning causes damage to the plant’s bark and favor the insect proliferation. While the use of a sulfur-calcium broth in PUA regulates pH, favors the effect of other products and promotes the growth of green algae which cover bark crevices avoiding the cottony scale establishment. The excessive use of agrochemicals for weed control in UPB causes soil nudity and kills natural enemies, whereas in the UPA grass layer is clipped at 20 cm on the soil maintaining its moisture and creating habitat favorable to natural enemies.

Published: August 2020

The objective of this study was to fit a logistic model to fresh and dry matters of leaves and fresh and dry matters of shoots of four lettuce cultivars to describe growth in summer. Cultivars Crocantela, Elisa, Rubinela, and Vera were evaluated in the summer of 2017 and 2018, in soil in protected environment and in soilless system. Seven days after transplantation, fresh and dry leaf matters and fresh and dry shoot matters of 8 plants were weighed every 4 days. The model parameters were estimated using the software R, using the least squares method and iterative process of Gauss-Newton. We also estimated the confidence intervals of the parameters, verified the assumptions of the models, calculated the goodness-of-fit measures and the critical points, and quantified the parametric and intrinsic nonlinearities. The logistic growth model fitted well to fresh and dry leaf and shoot matters of cultivars Crocantela, Elisa, Rubinela, and Vera and is indicated to describe the growth of lettuce.

Published: August 2020

The essential oil produced by Eugenia uniflora leaves is intensively used by the cosmetic, pharmaceutic and perfumery industries mainly because its antioxidant effect and antimicrobial and antihelmintic ativities. Drying and storage of the aromatic plant leaves can affect the yield and quality of its essential oil. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of drying method and storage conditions on the essential oil yield and composition in Eugenia uniflora leaves. The essential oil were extracted from dried leaves at ambient temperature and at 45°C for six drying periods (0, 6, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours-h). The essential oil yield was also analysed after 0, 60, 120, and 180 days of storage in three types of packaging. The oil was extracted by hydrodistillation and the composition was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Results showed that drying the leaves at ambient temperature and 45°C for 48 and 24 h, respectively, increased the essential oil yield. At 45°C the monoterpene and sesquiterpene compounds increased, with curzerene+viridiflorene identified as the major compounds. Package types did not affect the essential oil yield but the increase of the storage period decreased it.

Published: August 2020

It becomes apparent that the neurological complications of COVID-19 are significantly common, but in some cases, establishing a causal relationship is difficult. For example, a stroke can occur for reasons unrelated to coronavirus infection, while Guillain–Barré syndrome and meningoencephalitis are likely to be a parainfection. Only long-term epidemiological studies in large groups of patients can clarify some of these issues. This will help to better understand the mechanisms of development of complications and develop schemes for their treatment and subsequent rehabilitation. The article presents the mechanisms of penetration of the coronavirus into the nervous system and systematizes the neurological manifestations and complications of COVID-19, which were described in the first 3 months of the pandemic. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of the complications of COVID-19 from the central and peripheral nervous system, the most interesting clinical examples are considered. Summing up the analysis of the literature, we can say that the clinical picture of neurological diseases and syndromes caused by coronavirus infection corresponds to the usual notions. Also considered is the assumption that SARS-CoV-2 can persist for a long time in the central nervous system in the form of inactive fragments, which means that it can recur in predisposed individuals when appropriate conditions arise. This suggestion is alarming regarding distant neurological complications in infected and cured patients.

Published: August 2020

Background.“Scimitar” syndrome is a rare congenital malformation with a frequency of 2 per 100,000 newborns. The syndrome is manifested by complete abnormal drainage of the pulmonary veins of the right lung into the inferior vena cava. According to the literature, a typical symptom of scimitar syndrome can be detected on radiographs in no more than 1/3 of patients. Only complex radiation diagnostics with the inclusion of multispiral computed tomographic angiography allows to diagnose “scimitar” syndrome, determine all its components, clarify the anatomical features and determine the volume and tactics of further cardiac surgery.

Objectiveof the present clinical case is to assess the role of radiation research methods in the primary diagnosis and control of surgical treatment of scimitar syndrome.

Materials and methods.A 39-year-old patient with a history of open arterial duct ligation and complaints of fatigue, shortness of breath arising from household loads was examined. According to the results of the chest x-ray and MSCT angiography of the chest organs, “scimitar” syndrome was diagnosed, the patient underwent a two-stage cardiosurgical treatment with the assessment of the results by MSCT angiography. Results. According to the results of radiation studies, the patient revealed a rare congenital malformation — “scimitar” syndrome.

Conclusion.MSCT angiography of the chest is a highly informative, minimally invasive diagnostic method for the scimitar syndrome. MSCT angiography of the chest allows you to visually and accurately visualize the type of abnormal drainage, the course and place of the confluence of the collector, the presence of anastomoses with the left heart, which directly affects the definition of tactics for surgical correction of the disease. MSCT angiography of the chest allows you to evaluate the results of surgical treatment.

The problematic dimensions were in the dimensions of pain / discomfort (45.1%), walking/moving (35.3%), anxiety/depression (29.4%), usual activities (13.7%), and personal care (2.9%). The quality of life which was measured by VAS has a median value of 70 and there was no difference in quality of life between patients receiving antihypertensive monotherapy and combination.
Trabalho em Equipe na Atenção Básica à Saúde: Pesquisa Bibliográfica
Authors: Guimarães Bárbara Emanuely de Brito , Castelo Branco Andréa Batista de Andrade
Published: August 2020

O objetivo foi analisar os aspectos conceituais do trabalho em equipe na atenção básica à saúde mediante pesquisa bibliográfica. Foram selecionados artigos indexados no período de 2003 a 2013, nas bases de dados LILACS e SciELO, com o tema trabalho em equipe na atenção básica. Para análise do material selecionado, foram utilizadas técnicas de leitura. Foram evidenciadas três categorias: a) Construção coletiva de práticas de saúde com objetivos comuns, como estratégia na produção do cuidado; b) Rede de relações, interações e integrações entre profissionais de saúde, corresponsabilizando os agentes técnicos na produção do cuidado; c) Interdisciplinaridade nas ações de saúde, envolvendo os saberes profissionais como estratégia para cuidado da população. Em suma, o trabalho em equipe favorece ruptura da assistência centrada no modelo biomédico, superando relações verticalizadas e saberes fragmentados, bem como construindo novas estratégias de intervenção na comunidade.
“Ciência da Mãe”: Modos de Cuidados Clínicos com Bebês Prematuros à Luz da Teoria Psicanalítica
Authors: Mendes Ana Beatriz Correia , Martins Karla Patrícia Holanda , Melo Eleonora Pereira
Published: August 2020

O presente artigo tem como objetivo investigar os modos de cuidados clínicos com bebês prematuros internados em uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal (UTIN), à luz do referencial teórico da psicanálise, considerando os processos de instauração do sujeito e apontando para possíveis contribuições à atenção em saúde mental de bebês. A escuta psicanaliticamente orientada e as observações norteadas pelo uso do instrumento Indicadores de Risco para o Desenvolvimento Infantil (IRDI) compuseram as notas do diário de campo e permitiram a apresentação de vinhetas que ilustram a construção de possíveis dispositivos de trabalho clínico. Destaca-se a importância da sustentação de um espaço de escuta no qual se sobressaia o discurso familiar sobre o bebê, possibilitando a produção de narrativas singulares.
Sobre Práticas de Medicalização e “Loucura”: Algumas Reflexões (In)disciplinadas
Authors: Oliveira Esmael Alves de , Martins Catia Paranhos
Published: August 2020

Este artigo traz diálogos e questionamentos produzidos a partir de diferentes encontros e em diferentes momentos da atuação acadêmica dos autores. Para fins de análise, tomamos a experiência da loucura e dos processos de medicalização como um dispositivo de normalização da vida e nos baseamos em duas imagens-cena, uma etnográfica e outra cinematográfica, em face de nossa atuação como docentes nos Cursos de Ciências Sociais e Psicologia da Universidade Federal da Grande Dourados (UFGD). Ao longo de nosso percurso experimental, autores como Foucault, Deleuze e Guattari, pensadores da Reforma Psiquiátrica brasileira, da Subjetividade e do campo da Saúde Coletiva, serão os nossos inspiradores.
O DSM-V e os Efeitos da Suspensão da Ontologia
Authors: Lemke Ruben Artur , Costa Márcio Luis , Ravanello Tiago
Published: August 2020

Este artigo apresenta uma crítica à suspensão das discussões ontológicas no DSM-V. O objetivo é defender a importância destas discussões teóricas no campo da psicopatologia através da diferença ontológica em Heidegger. Primeiro, pretende-se advertir que a suspensão de reflexões ontológicas tem por efeito a redução da experiência psicopatológica e a desvalorização da linguagem e da clínica em prol da supervalorização dos suportes materiais. Segundo, que a ausência de tais discussões não impede que uma ontologia implícita esteja operando e produza efeitos sociais. Para ilustrar esta questão, é abordada a noção do deficit de substância a ser restituída, que é a matriz basilar das hipóteses etiológicas orgânicas. Conclui-se que essa matriz convoca uma ética no estilo de uma essência a cumprir, a qual se acopla à lógica de consumo em uma sociedade que exige desempenho.
La biomasse pariétale des fourrages et sa valorisation par les herbivores
Authors: BESLE J.M. , JOUANY J.P.
Published: August 2020

Au sein de la biomasse végétale, les composés à teneur élevée en parois constituent une source d’aliments que seuls les herbivores peuvent utiliser. Parmi les herbivores, le Ruminant a été de loin le plus étudié. Les processus de dégradation anaérobie des composés lignocellulosiques dans le rumen mettent en jeu le rôle spécifique des micro-organismes (bactéries, protozoaires, champignons). Les produits du métabolisme microbien sont directement utilisés par l’animal hôte comme source d’énergie (acides gras volatils) ou comme principal fournisseur d’acides aminés (protéines microbiennes synthétisées dans le rumen) ou de vitamines (vitamines B). La teneur en lignine élevée de certains fourrages est cause d’une médiocre dégradation par les micro-organismes du tube digestif. Il est possible d’améliorer leur utilisation par trois moyens. Les traitements technologiques sont très nombreux mais seuls ceux aux alcalis, surtout à l’ammoniac, et, dans certains cas le broyage et les traitements hydrothermiques sont économiquement rentables et se développent dans la pratique. Les procédés aux moisissures blanches doivent encore être développés. Les autres traitements chimiques (oxydants, SO2), physiques (irradiation) et biologiques (enzymes, bactéries apportant des nutriments), ne sont pas suffisamment rentables. Les améliorations apportées par les meilleurs traitements ne permettent pas cependant de dépasser une digestibilité de 0,5 - 0,6 pour les résidus très lignifiés. Les recherches futures doivent développer d’autres voies tout en perfectionnant (efficacité, économie) les procédés actuels. L’optimisation de l’activité microbienne dans le rumen peut être atteinte en fournissant aux microbes les nutriments dont ils ont besoin. En outre, l’emploi du génie génétique ouvre des perspectives dans l’amélioration de la production d’enzymes microbiennes particulièrement efficaces à l’égard des parois ou en permettant le développement de certaines activités microbiennes dans des conditions de milieu peu favorables (cellulolyse en milieu de pH faible). L’optimisation des fermentations peut être atteinte en choisissant le type d’herbivore dont les caractéristiques morphologiques et physiologiques des réservoirs de fermentation sont optimisées, en premier lieu par leur position (rumen ou gros intestin) puis en sélectionnant divers critères (capacité, temps de séjour des aliments, répartition des phases liquides et solides, ...). Cette approche est d’un intérêt considérable pour les pays qui s’orientent vers un système d’utilisation des résidus très lignifiés de l’agriculture.
Acides aminés de 16 céréales et protéagineux : variations et clés du calcul de la composition en fonction du taux d’azote des grain(e)s. Conséquences nutritionnelles
Authors: MOSSÉ J.
Published: August 2020

Les changements parfois importants de composition en acides aminés des grain(e)s sont toujours en corrélation avec ceux de leurs taux d’azote. Ils sont décrits par des relations linéaires entre la teneur en chaque acide aminé et le taux d’azote mises en évidence chez 16 espèces cultivées pour leurs grain(e)s. Quelques rappels sont d’abord faits sur les grain(e)s, leurs réserves, la protéosynthèse dont elles sont le siège jusqu’à maturité, ainsi que sur les problèmes soulevés par l’analyse des acides aminés et l’expression des compositions. Les caractéristiques des variations de ces compositions sont discutées, sur le plan tant fondamental que pratique : qu’elles soient dues aux facteurs de l’environnement, à la fumure ou aux conditions culturales ou bien qu’elles soient d’origine variétale, ces variations obéissent strictement aux mêmes types de relations linéaires qui sont donc définies par deux coefficients déterminables expérimentalement pour tout couple correspondant à une espèce et un acide aminé donnés. Le tableau de ces coefficients est donné pour chacune des 16 espèces et pour chacun des 19 acides aminés analysables. Un certain nombre de conséquences nutritionnelles qui en découlent sont discutées, en particulier l’ampleur des variations intraspécifiques des acides aminés dans les protéines des grain(e)s, les variations comparées, en fonction du taux d’azote, des scores nutritionnels par espèce et entre espèces, celle du rapport leucine/isoleucine, ainsi que les changements éventuels dans l’ordre des acides aminés limitants et aussi ceux des coefficients de conversion de l’azote total en protéines réelles. En toute occasion, la connaissance de la composition en acides aminés des lots de grains utilisés dans les rations animales est désormais beaucoup plus simple à établir avec une précision et une sécurité accrues.
Prévision de l’energie digestible des aliments pour le porc : intérêt du dosage des parois végétales par voie enzymatique
Authors: PEREZ J.M.
Published: August 2020

Dans le cadre d’un programme général de recherches sur la prévision de la valeur énergétique des aliments composés destinés au Porc, cette étude avait pour objet d’évaluer l’intérêt d’une nouvelle méthode rapide de dosage des parois végétales par voie enzymatique mise au point par l’INRA (PAR : Parois insolubles dans l’eau). L’expérimentation portait sur un ensemble de 43 régimes complexes, dont on a cherché en particulier à diversifier la nature des sources de fibres alimentaires. Les mesures de valeur énergétique (ED) ont été réalisées sur des porcs mâles castrés appartenant à la même gamme de poids (40 kg environ), à raison de quatre animaux par régime (172 bilans digestifs au total). Pour accroître la précision des résultats analytiques et la portée des équations de prédiction, les aliments expérimentaux ont fait l’objet de dosages répétés dans plusieurs laboratoires. Sur la base des critères classiques de sélection des équations (écart-type résiduel, R2), les modèles de prédiction mettant en jeu la variable PAR apparaissent dans l’ensemble les plus précis. Cependant, ils ne présentent pas d’avantage décisif par rapport aux modèles de prévision incluant la cellulose brute ou les résidus pariétaux selon Van Soest. Si on combine les erreurs liées aux modèles (ETR) et les erreurs associées aux analyses (SLAB), les équations avec PAR s’avèrent toujours préférables à celles utilisant les autres indicateurs de parois. Les meilleurs modèles faisant intervenir PAR aboutissent à des équations de prévision de l’énergie digestible dont l’incertitude totale (équation + analyses) n’excède pas 75 kcal par kg de matière sèche. L’équation 25 (Lipides, PAR, Cendres, MAT) s’avère la plus intéressante.
Remplacement partiel des protéines du lait par celles du blé ou du maïs dans les aliments d’allaitement : influence sur l’utilisation digestive chez le veau de boucherie

Le but de cet essai était d’étudier l’influence du remplacement d’une partie des protéines du lait par celles du blé ou du maïs, sur la digestibilité de l’aliment et la rétention azotée, chez le veau de boucherie. Pour cela, 4 laits de remplacement (T, BV, BD et M) ont été distribués à des lots de 6 veaux entre les âges d’environ 4 et 19 semaines. Dans l’aliment T, les protéines étaient apportées en totalité par de la poudre de lait écrémé. Dans les autres aliments, 19 % des protéines étaient fournies soit par du gluten de blé vital (BV) ou dévitalisé (BD), soit par un concentrat protéique de maïs (M). La digestibilité apparente et la rétention azotée, mesurées au cours des 8e et 14e semaines d’âge, n’ont pas été significativement affectées par la nature des protéines de l’aliment : en moyenne, la digestibilité de l’azote a été de 0,95, 0,95, 0,95 et 0,93 pour les aliments T, BV, BD et M, respectivement. Les valeurs calculées ont été de 0,94, 0,93 et 0,86 pour la digestibilité de l’azote des produits BV, BD et M. Les veaux des lots BV, BD et M ont développé des anticorps systémiques contre les protéines étudiées. Cependant, aucune de ces dernières ne semble avoir entraîné de réactions allergiques. La dévitalisation n’a pas eu d’influence notable sur l’utilisation du gluten de blé par les animaux, mais elle a permis d’améliorer son maintien en suspension.
