Inhibition of Rumen Methanogenesis and Ruminant Productivity: A Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018 Methane (CH4) formed in the rumen and released to the atmosphere constitutes an energy inefficiency to ruminant production. Redirecting energy in CH4 to fermentation products with a nutritional value to the host animal could increase ruminant ...

Hydrogenotrophic Methanogenesis Under Alkaline Conditions [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 A cement-based geological disposal facility (GDF) is one potential option for the disposal of intermediate level radioactive wastes. The presence of both organic and metallic materials within a GDF provides the opportunity for both acetoclastic and ...

Inhibiting Methanogenesis in Rumen Batch Cultures Did Not Increase the Recovery of Metabolic Hydrogen in Microbial Amino Acids [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2019 There is an interest in controlling rumen methanogenesis as an opportunity to both decrease the emissions of greenhouse gases and improve the energy efficiency of rumen fermentation. However, the effects of inhibiting rumen methanogenesis on fermentation

Resilience and functional redundancy of methanogenic digestion microbiome safeguard recovery of methanogenesis activity under the stress induced by microplastics [PDF]
mLife, 2023 Microplastics and nanoplastics are emerging pollutants that substantially influence biological element cycling in natural ecosystems. Plastics are also prevalent in sewage, and they accumulate in waste‐activated sludge (WAS).

Microbial methanogenesis in the sulfate-reducing zone of surface sediments traversing the Peruvian margin [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 We studied the concurrence of methanogenesis and sulfate reduction in surface sediments (0–25 cm below sea floor) at six stations (70, 145, 253, 407, 990 and 1024 m) along the Peruvian margin (12° S).

Shifts in metabolic hydrogen sinks in the methanogenesis-inhibited ruminal fermentation: a meta-analysis [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Maximizing the flow of metabolic hydrogen ([H]) in the rumen away from CH4 and towards volatile fatty acids (VFA) would increase the efficiency of ruminant production and decrease its environmental impact. The objectives of this meta-analysis were: i) To

The Action Potential of Antioxidant Grape Seed Proanthocyanidin as a Rumen Modifier to Mitigate Rumen Methanogenesis In Vitro [PDF]
Fermentation, 2023 Grape seed proanthocyanidin (GSP) contains polyphenolic bioflavonoids ubiquitously found in the lignified portions of grape seeds from the winery and distillery industries, as an antioxidant. To explore its potential as a rumen modifier in methanogenesis

Recovery of Energy and Carbon Dioxide from Craft Brewery Wastes for Onsite Use
Fermentation, 2023 Interest in craft beers is increasing worldwide due to their flavor and variety. However, craft breweries have high water, energy, and carbon dioxide (CO2) demands and generate large quantities of high-strength waste and greenhouse gases.
