Effects of gas composition in headspace and bicarbonate concentrations in media on gas and methane production, degradability, and rumen fermentation using in vitro gas production techniques [PDF]
Headspace gas composition and bicarbonate concentrations in media can affect methane production and other characteristics of rumen fermentation in in vitro gas production systems, but these 2 important factors have not been evaluated systematically. In this study, these 2 factors were investigated with respect to gas and methane production, in vitro ...

Use of in vitro gas production models in ruminal kinetics
Physiological systems models for ruminant animals are used to predict the extent of ruminal carbohydrate digestion, based on rates of intake, digestion, and passage to the lower tract. Digestion of feed carbohydrates is described in these models by a first-order rate constant.
