Sažetak
Numerous studies indicate that the short-term addition of relatively large amounts of n-3 fatty acids could have a beneficial effect on inflammatory processes. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine whether such treatment affect and how long the effect lasts on somatic and microorganism cells in goats’ milk. The study was performed on 90 dairy goats machine milked twice a day. Regarding the supplementation, the study was divided in the period before supplementation ; supplementation ; and after supplementation. Accordingly, to supplemented n-3 PUFA (eicosapentaenoic, α- linoleic, and docosahexaenoic), the goats were randomly allocated into 4 groups (control, and supplemented). Milk samples was taken at each milking and analyzed for the number of somatic and microorganism cells. Conducted research indicate that the supplementation of PUFA had positive effect on both analyzed traits. The addition of supplements induced the reduction of somatic and microorganism cells in milk in all experimental, compared to the control group with the lowest values determined in group with added α-linoleic acid. This effect lasted even after supplementation. Finally, in order to determine the exact formulation of PUFA addition, further research is needed.
