Effect of forage type and supplemental dietary vitamin E on milk oxidative stability

Abstract: However, supplementing the alfalfa silage diet had no effect on flavor over the first 3 wk of feeding.It is apparent that the vitamin E content of milk is not the sole determinant of its oxidative stability. RESULTSThe feeds used were all low in vit E content ( Table 2) The o-tocopherol levels in blood plasma refler:ted the differences in vit E intake from the t,wo silages (Fig. 1). The average plasma content was higher (P < 0.05) when alfalfa

“…Similarly, the α-tocopherol content in cheese fat was positively influenced by the vitamin E supplementation of the preserved-foragebased rations, but only with the high level of supplementation. These results agree with previous experimental findings related to milk [26,29,57,70]. The retinol and α-tocopherol contents in milk fat directly depend on their level in the cow's diet, but also on that of β-carotene for retinol [29].…”

“…In agreement with this, in the present study, the concentrations of α-tocopherol and β-carotene in milk paralleled those observed in plasma. A clear relationship between plasma concentrations and secretion into milk of α-tocopherol and β-carotene has been also reported by other authors [24,26,39]. The concentrations of the two fat-soluble antioxidants in milk derived from pasture supplemented groups were much higher than the minima suggested by Al-Mabruk et al [1] to ensure a favourable oxidative stability of milk.…”

“…The amount of vitamin E associated with the fat globule membrane is considered to be the main determinant of the oxidative stability of milk. In earlier trials conducted mainly in Canada (Nicholson & St-Laurent, 1991;Charmley & Nicholson, 1994), dietary supplementation of vitamin E did not consistently increase the -tocopherol concentration in milk. However, the oxidative stability of milk, as estimated by a panel of three trained evaluators, generally increased (Nicholson & St-Laurent, 1991).…”

However, the oxidative stability of milk, as estimated by a panel of three trained evaluators, generally increased (Nicholson & St-Laurent, 1991). Dietary vitamin E supplementation at 9954 IU/d increased the "-tocopherol concentration in milk by about 45%, which was sufficient to prevent milk oxidation (Focant et al, 1998).…”
