A total of 472 nursery piglets(Landrace×Yorkshire,(16.3±0.36) kg body weight) were randomly allocated into two treatments with 236 pigs in each treatment. The pigs were fed the basal diet without fresh FSM(control) or diet containing 10%(100 g/kg) fresh FSM(FSM group), and the crude protein content of the two groups was consistent. The feeding trial lasted for 28 d. The results showed that the pigs fed fresh FSM had increased(P〈0.05) average daily gain(ADG) compared with the control. There was no significant difference(P〈0.05) in feed to gain ratio(F:G) between the two groups. During the whole experiment, the concentration of NH3 in the piggery decreased(P〈0.05) by 19.0%, and the concentrations of PM(PM(10) and PM(2.5)) in the piggery decreased(P〈0.05) by 19.9% and 11.6%, respectively, in the FSM group, compared with the control. The ammonia nitrogen and nitrite content in feces increased(P〈0.05) by 32.9% and 28.4%, respectively, in the FSM group. The fecal p H declined(P〈0.05) significantly in the FSM group compared with the control. At the end of experiment, total protein(TP) concentration was increased(P〈0.05) significantly and blood urea nitrogen(BUN) concentration was decreased(P〈0.05) for pigs fed the diet with fresh FSM. The results indicated that dietary fresh FSM not only improved the growth performance of nursery piglets, but also reduced the NH3 concentration in the piggery due to nitrogen conversion, and decreased the concentrations of PM(10) and PM(2.5) in the piggery.展开更多

In this paper, tin dioxide (SnO_(2)) inverse opal films were prepared with sol–gel method by cooperative opal template. The surface morphologies of SnO_(2)inverse opal films were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the inner structure of SnO_(2)inverse opal films was examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), the optical properties of SnO_(2)inverse opal films were studied and discussed in detail. Optical reflectance spectra reveal that, for the opal films, the wavelengths of the reflectance peak confirmed by the experimental reflectance spectra are consistent with the theoretical values;for the SnO_(2)inverse opal films, the wavelengths of the reflectance peak confirmed by the experimental reflectance spectra deviate from theoretical values largely.展开更多
