Influence of Fermentation Methods on Neutral Detergent Fiber Degradation Parameters [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2008 The effect of 3 fermentation methods, in situ (IS) in 4 lactating cows (average pH of 5.8), in vitro (IVn) with media pH of 6.8, or in vitro (IVa) with media pH adjusted to 6.0 using citric acid, on fiber degradation parameters was studied using feeds ground to different particle sizes.

Effect of silage source, physically effective neutral detergent fiber, and undigested neutral detergent fiber concentrations on performance and carcass characteristics of finishing steers [PDF]
Translational Animal Science, 2021 Abstract This study was designed to evaluate the effect of silage source (barley vs. wheat silage) when harvested at two chop lengths (low vs. high physically effective neutral detergent fiber [peNDF]) and when barley silage was partially replaced with straw to increase the undigested neutral detergent fiber (uNDF) concentration on ...

Characteristics of neutral detergent-soluble fiber fermentation by mixed ruminal microbes
Animal Feed Science and Technology, 1998 Abstract A new method for determining neutral detergent-soluble fiber (NDSF) estimates the non-starch polysaccharide present in 90% ethanol-insoluble residue (EIR) but absent from neutral detergent residue (NDF). Unextracted feeds, EIR and NDF of feeds high in pectic substances were fermented in vitro with mixed ruminal microbes and gas production ...
