Phenotypes scored and criteria for scoring were the same as for the RNAi by feeding of strain N2.
MSTN mRNA levels in spleen of SWR mice fed the high-fat diet were consistently lower than control fed mice, regardless of strain.
HFDs produce a consistent and significant increase in body weight, adipocyte hypertrophy and hyperplasia, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, depending on fat in the diet, duration of feeding, and strain of the experimental animal [ 1, 15, 17].
Diet modulations leading to NAFLD include the methionine and choline deficient diet-fed mice [ 13] and high fat diet (HFD) mice [ 14, 15] wherein, NAFLD severity varies with diet composition, duration of feeding, species, strain, and gender of animals.
Based on the three-stage division of cell growth curves (Fig. 2), 30 mM sodium formate was fed into the cultivation broth of strain AFY at 12, 24, and 48 h after culture inoculation, respectively, to serve as the substrate in the reaction catalyzed by Fdh.
These data are consistent with the recent observation that the single nrt1 mutant is more effective at cross feeding of the qns1 strain than is a wild-type strain [11].
Cross feeding of P. fluorescens strain Pf-5 fpv mutants by the WCS strains was examined as described by Hartney et al. [ 32] on KBA.
The effects of feeding Propionibacterium strain P169 (P169), yeast culture (XPY), and their combination on nutrient intake, site and extent of digestion, and ruminal kinetics were evaluated in a completely randomized experimental design.
We observed no significant differences in the susceptibility to hypochlorite or benzalkonium chloride when testing feed factory strains of rdar and bdar morphotypes.
There was no effect of strain, diet or interaction of these effects on feed conversion ratio.
