FATTY ACID PROFILE IN RUMINAL CONTENT AND BLOOD PLASMA OF
FINISHING BEEF CATTLE, SUPPLEMENTED WITH DIFFERENT SOURCES OF FAT
Eight steers were used in a replicated 4 x 4 Latin square design experiment to study the rumen metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The animals were fed a concentrate diet based on cracked corn grain, corn silage and hay fescue (K31). The dietary fat treatments were a negative control, tallow added at 60g/day, fish oil at 60g/day and heterotrophically grown microalgae high in DHA at 100g/day. Treatments were incorporated immediately prior to feeding each day and dosed through a ruminal fistula mixed with 0.45kg of the diet. Animals were fed at 1.75 x NEm once daily during adaptation then switched to twice daily during sample collection. Samples rumen, reticulum and omasal contents were used to determine ruminal digestion and metabolism of fatty acids while urine and feces were collected to determine diet digestibility and N balance. The experiment was analyzed as a Latin Square design with a 2 x 2 factorial using mixed models in SAS. There was no difference among treatments for DMI, urine or fecal excretion, N balance, total VFA concentrations, omasal or reticular flow, and apparent digestibility. Fat treatments had lower blood plasma C18:0 than control. Algae increased flow of C18:1 isomers and increased DHA in plasma.

consuming a grain-based diet. Kitessa et al. (2001) obtained similar results where C18:0
levels were lower in blood plasma of 5 sheep consuming unprotected and protected tuna
oil in a hay-oat grains diet. Similar to this study, AbuGhazaleh et al. (2003) observed an
increase in linolenic acid (C18:3n3) plasma levels when supplementing 1% fish oil plus
2% fat from flax seeds to 4 Holstein cows consuming 50% concentrate mix, 25% corn
silage, 12.5% alfalfa silage, and 12.5% alfalfa hay. The presence of EPA and DHA
inhibit the hydrogenation of C18:2n6 and C18:3n3 due to the reduction in lipolysis
(Boeckaerta et al., 2007). In this study a reduction in C18:2n6 trans was observed in
algae and fish oil treatments when compared to control. The percentage of C18:3n3 was
higher in fat supplemented animals which could be a result of inhibition of
biohydrogenation of linolenic acid (C18:3n3) to stearic acid (C18:0). Scollan et al. (2001)
supplemented steers with 6% fish oil and obtained higher C16:0 and C18:1 trans content
34
in adipose tissue; which is similar to omasal flow data in this study; and lower C18:2n6
content in muscle neutral lipids and phospholipids; similar to blood plasma data obtained
in this study. This demonstrates how fatty acids are incorporated differently depending on
the nature of the tissue. Arachidonic acid (C20:4n6) can be considered an essential fatty
acid in cattle, and it is used for prostaglandin synthesis, but when present in excess can
cause negative impacts such as vasoconstriction due to the production of thromboxanes
during prostaglandin synthesis (Simopoulos, 2006). Linoleic acid (C18:2) is converted to
C20:4n6 by chain elongation and desaturation (Church, 1988). Arachidonic acid (20:4n-
6) was higher in the blood plasma of animals consuming the algae treatment, which is
similar to previous studies (Kitessa et al., 2001; Cooke et al., 2011; Hess et al., 2012).
The levels of blood plasma DHA were higher in animals consuming the algae treatment.
This increased concentration was also observed by Hess et al. (2012) when
supplementing 38 g of algae and fish oil to 21 mares that consumed a hay and barley diet;
by Cooke et al. (2011) when supplementing rumen-protected PUFA; and by Kitessa et al.
(2001) when supplementing protected and unprotected tuna oil. This indicates that DHA
is absorbed and transported to the blood when animals consume this isomer in the diet.
Similar results were obtained by Ashes et al. (1992) when supplementing sheep with 2%
fish oil in the diet, presenting higher contents in serum lipids of DHA.

CHAPTER FOUR: SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
The supplementation of heterotrophically grown microalgae high in DHA
(100g/d) through a rumen fistula in steers consuming a high grain finishing diet can be
used as a tool to modify the fatty acid profile flowing out of the rumen and present in the
blood plasma. Algae supplementation provided a polyunsaturated fatty acid profile that
inhibits to some extent the biohyodrogenation process in the rumen. This was indicated
by the higher omasal outflow of C18:1 isomers; C18:1 cis-6, C18:1 trans-9 and C18:1
cis-9; and lower outflow of C18:0. The high DHA content in this heterotrophically grown
microalgae could affect the steps in the biohydrogenation process that occurs in the
rumen. Blood plasma weight percent of C18:2n6 trans significantly lower in animals
consuming algae. This could indicate a partial inhibition of the biohydrogenation process
of C18:2n6. Algae successfully modified the fatty acid profile in blood plasma, where
animals presented a lower weight percent of C18:0 and a higher DHA content, even
though the flow of DHA out of the rumen was not detectable in omasal samples. Algae
treatment also was efficient in maintaining a higher rumen pH when compared to the
control diet, which can be beneficial on high grain diets. These data indicate that algae
feeding may have potential to alter the fatty acid profile of steers consuming a high grain
finishing diet.
