In silico and in vitro studies revealed that rosmarinic acid inhibited methanogenesis via regulating composition and function of rumen microbiota

Journal of Dairy Science
: Inhibition of methyl-coenzyme M reductase can suppress the activity of ruminal methanogens, thereby reducing enteric methane emissions of ruminants. However, developing specific and environmentally friendly inhibitors is a challenging endeavor.

Functional analysis of Parabacteroides distasonis F4: a novel probiotic strain linked to calf growth and rumen fermentation

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology
Background Rumen microorganisms are key regulators of ruminant growth and production performance. Identifying probiotic candidates through microbial culturomics presents a promising strategy for improving ruminant production performance.

Effects of Dietary Forage Proportion on Feed Intake, Growth Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, and Enteric Methane Emissions of Holstein Heifers at Various Growth Stages

Animals, 2019
Enteric methane (CH4) emissions from young ruminants contribute to a substantial proportion of atmospheric CH4 accumulation. Development of emission inventory and mitigation approaches needs accurate estimation of individual emission from animals under ...

METHANE PRODUCTION IN DAIRY COWS

Journal of Dairy Science, 1979
Abstract The relationship among diet composition, intake, and methane production was investigated with data during 404 total energy balance trials with Holstein cows. Methane production in all trial was measure in open circuit respiration chambers. The most useful predictor of total methane productin was amounts of soluble residue, hemicellulose, and

A1 β-casein and A2 β-casein: effects on the gastrointestinal motility, digestion, and absorption

Journal of Functional Foods
This study compared A1 and A2 β-casein using a constipated mouse model and ex vivo intestinal sac assays. A2 β-casein significantly improved constipation-related outcomes—enhancing body weight recovery, shortening the first black stool time, increasing ...

Understanding the functionality of the rumen microbiota: searching for better opportunities for rumen microbial manipulation [PDF]

Animal Bioscience
Rumen microbiota play a central role in the digestive process of ruminants. Their remarkable ability to break down complex plant fibers and proteins, converting them into essential organic compounds that provide animals with energy and nutrition ...
