Concentrations of butyric acid bacteria spores in silage and relationships with aerobic deterioration
Open accessAbstract
Germination and growth of spores of butyric acid bacteria (BAB) may cause severe defects in semihard cheeses. Silage is the main source of BAB spores in cheese milk. The objectives of the study were to determine the significance of grass silages and corn silages as sources of BAB spores and to investigate the relationships between high concentrations of BAB spores in corn silage and aerobic deterioration. In the first survey, samples were taken from various locations in silos containing grass and corn silages and from mixed silages in the ration offered to the cows on 21 farms. We demonstrated that the quantity of BAB spores consumed by cows was determined by a small fraction of silage with a high concentration of spores (above 5 log10 BAB/g). High concentrations were most often found in corn silage within areas with visible molds (69% of the samples). Areas with visible molds in grass silage and surface layers of corn silage contained, respectively, 21 and 19% of the cases of concentrations above 5 log10 BAB spores/g. Based on these results, we concluded that currently in the Netherlands, corn silage is a more important source of BAB than is grass silage. In a second survey, 8 corn silages were divided into 16 sections and each section was studied in detail. High concentrations of BAB spores were found in only the top 50 cm of these 8 silages. Elevated concentrations of BAB spores were associated with different signs of aerobic deterioration. In 13% of the sections in corn silage with more than 5 log10 yeasts and molds/g, more than 5 log10 BAB spores/g were found. Sections with a temperature of more than 5 degrees C above ambient temperature contained, in 21% of the cases, more than 5 log10 BAB spores/g. Concentrations above 5 log10 BAB spores/g were measured in 50% of the sections with a pH above 4.4. All sections with a pH above 4.4 also showed a temperature that was more than 5 degrees C above ambient temperature and a concentration of yeasts and molds above 5 log10 cfu/g. Based on these results, we postulated that high concentrations of BAB spores in corn silage are the result of oxygen penetration into the silage, resulting in aerobic deterioration and the formation of anaerobic niches with an increased pH just below the surface. Growth of BAB in these anaerobic niches with an increased pH caused the locally high concentrations of BAB in corn silage.

Aerobic deterioration involves, to different extents, up to 20% of the total stored DM of farm silages, both in temperate and warm climates.
“This deterioration process involves, to different extents, up to 20% of the total stored DM of farm silages, both in temperate (Vissers et al., 2007; Borreani and Tabacco, 2010; Schmidt and Kung, 2010) and warm climates (Huisden et al., 2009; Kang et al.,”

Air can penetrate via the silage face up to distances of 4 m, especially in the periphery of the silo, during the feed-out phase.
“In contrast to the surface losses occurring during storage, air exerts a stronger effect during the feed-out phase because exposure of the silage to oxygen is inevitable once the silo is opened, and air can penetrate via the silage face, up to distances of 4 m, especially in the periphery of the silo (Pahlow et al., 2003; Borreani et al., 2007; Vissers et al., 2007).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
