Abstract

본 연구는 셀레늄급원으로 셀레늄강화버섯 폐배지(Se-SMC)를 거세한우에 급여하였을 때, 도체특성, 혈중 GSH-Px활성 및 조직내 셀레늄축적에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 셀레늄급원은 유기셀레늄강화버섯을 생산한 후 폐기되는 버섯폐배지를 활용하였으며, 일반폐배지(SMC)를 조합하여 실험사료의 셀레늄 농도를 0.1, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 ppm(건물기준)의 4처리구로 설정하였다. 실험동물은 비육후기 거세한우 20두(평균체중 613 kg, 20 <TEX>${\sim}$</TEX> 24개월령)를 공시하여, 처리구간 5두씩 배치하여 실험사료를 12주간 급여하였다. 실험기간 중 채혈하여 혈중 셀레늄농도와 혈장내 GSH-Px활성을 측정하였고, 근육(등심, 후지)과 간내 셀레늄함량과 도체특성을 측정하기위해 시험 후 도축하였다. Se-SMC의 보충으로 증가된 셀레늄수즌은 건물섭취량과 증체량에 영향을 미치지 않았고, 높은 농도의 처리군에서 중독증상은 발견되지 않았다. 도체특성 또한 처리구별 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 혈중 셀레늄농도와 혈장내 GSH-Px활성은 Se-SMC 급여수준이 증가함에 따라 직선적으로 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.01). 근육과 간내 셀레늄함량은 후지 및 간에서 사료중 셀레늄함량이 증가함에 따라 각각 건물 g당 0.27, 0.37, 0.40, 0.46<TEX>$\mu$</TEX>g 및 0.79, 1.40, 2.39, 3.10 <TEX>$\mu$</TEX>g를 나타내어 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.05). 하지만, 등심내 셀레늄함량은 처리구간 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 이상과 같이 Se-SMC에 존재하는 셀레늄은 비육후기 거세한우에서 혈중 셀레늄농도와 GSH-Px활성을 유의하게 증가시킬 뿐만 아니라, 조직내 셀레늄함량을 증가시켜 저렴한 생산비로 셀레늄강화 쇠고기의 생산이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. This study was conducted to determine effects of spent composts of Se-enriched mushrooms (Se-SMC) as the dietary selenium source on carcass characteristics, plasma glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) activity and Se deposition in finishing Hanwoo steers. In combination with both Se-SMC and normal SMC, experimental treatment diets were formulated to contain 0.1, 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 ppm of Se on a dry matter basis. A total of 20 finishing Hanwoo steers (average BW = 613 kg, average age = 20 to 24 mo) were allotted to treatments in four groups of five steers per pen for 12 wk preceding slaughter. While the experiment is employed, blood samples were taken to analyze Se concentration and GSH-Px activity, and muscle and liver samples were collected for analyses of Se contents in their tissues after slaughter. DMl and BW gain were not affected by dietary Se level and any toxic symptoms in treatments with a higher level of Se were not observed. No differences were noted for carcass characteristics. Se concentration in whole blood and plasma GSH-Px activity were linearly increased with the increasing level of dietary Se (P < 0.01). Se content in the hind leg for Se-SMC supplemented groups significantly increased (P < 0.05) upon dietary Se level, with 0.27, 0.37, 0.40 and 0.46 !1g1g dry, respectively. However, Se content in the loin was not affected by dietary Se levels. Se content in the liver was significantly increased(P < 0.05) as dietary Se increased, with 0.79, 1.40, 2.39 and 3.10 !1g1g dry, respectively. These results suggested that Se in the Se-SMC was highly bioavailable, and Se-SMC might be used not only as an inexpensive way of providing Se for ruminants but also as another way of producing Se-fortified beef.
