The concept that fat supplementation impairs total-tract fiber digestibility in ruminants has been widely accepted over the past decades. Nevertheless, the recent interest in the dietary fatty acid profile to dairy cows enlightened the possible ...

The low digestibility of fiber in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) limits dry matter intake and energy availability in ruminant animal production systems. Previously, alfalfa plants were identified for low or high rapid (16 h) and low or high potential (96 h)

Lignin and fiber digestion [PDF]
Lignin is a polymer formed from monolignols derived from the phenylpropanoid pathway in vascular plants. It is deposited in the cell walls of plants as part of the process of cell maturation. Lignin is considered an anti-quality component in forages because of its negative impact on the nutritional availability of plant fiber.

Fiber digestibility in growing pigs fed common fiber-rich ingredients – A systematic review
The application of high-fiber ingredients in the swine feed industry has some limitations considering that high amounts of fiber are resistant to endogenous enzymatic degradation in the pig’s gut.

Effect of drought stress on in vitro neutral detergent fiber digestibility of corn for silage
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of drought stress on neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and lignin (LIG) concentrations and on in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) and in vitro neutral detergent fiber digestibility (IVNDFD) of ...

Effect of dried leaves of Leucaena leucocephala on rumen fermentation, rumen microbial population, and enteric methane production in crossbred heifers [PDF]
The effects of dietary inclusion of dried Leucaena leucocephala leaves (DLL) on nutrient digestibility, fermentation parameters, microbial rumen population, and production of enteric methane (CH4) in crossbred heifers were evaluated.

Simple Summary Dietary fiber is considered to be a nutrient concentration diluent and an antinutritional factor affecting poultry performance. As a consequence, commercial diets generally contain 2–3% crude fiber.

Diet components as internal indicators in the determination of the apparent digestibility coefficients for Nile tilapia [PDF]
: The objective of this work was to evaluate the diet components - crude fiber, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin - as internal indicators in the determination of the apparent digestibility coefficients ...

Effect of Dietary Fiber Sources on In-Vitro Fermentation and Microbiota in Monogastrics
Feed fiber composition is usually considered as one of the factors that have an impact on digestive tract microbiota composition. The investigations on the level of fermentation and in-vitro digestibility of different fibers are not well understood.
