Estimating the Forage Neutral Detergent Fiber Content of Alpine Grassland in the Tibetan Plateau Using Hyperspectral Data and Machine Learning Algorithms

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2021
The neutral detergent fiber (NDF) content is a key factor in the forage palatability and livestock digestibility of alpine grassland. Traditional methods of measuring NDF are time-consuming and laborious, while multispectral remote sensing often has ...

Gravimetric determination of amylase-treated neutral detergent fiber in feeds with refluxing in beakers or crucibles: collaborative study.

Journal of AOAC International, 2002
As an important constituent of animal feeds, fiber represents the portion of feeds that is bulky and difficult to digest. The neutral detergent fiber (NDF) method, developed over 30 years ago, is the method of choice for measuring total fiber in forages ...

Prediction of in vivo neutral detergent fiber digestibility and digestion rate of potentially digestible neutral detergent fiber: Comparison of models

Journal of Animal Science, 2008
Eleven 1-pool, seven 2-pool, and three 3-pool models were compared in fitting gas production data and predicting in vivo NDF digestibility and effective first-order digestion rate of potentially digestible NDF (pdNDF). Isolated NDF from 15 grass silages harvested at different stages of maturity was incubated in triplicate in rumen fluid-buffer solution

Apparent digestibility of neutral detergent fiber in elderly and young adults

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1981
These experiments assessed the ability of the neutral detergent fiber (NDF) method to remove starch and nitrogen from food NDF residues, and nitrogen and endogenous secretions from fecal NDF residues; and compared indices of bowel function, including apparent NDF digestibility, of nine elderly subjects to those of six young women.

Ileal digestibilities of neutral detergent fiber, crude protein, and amino acids associated with neutral detergent fiber in wheat shorts for growing pigs.

Journal of Animal Science, 2001
An experiment was carried out to determine the ileal digestibility values of NDF, CP, and AA associated with NDF in different samples of wheat shorts consisting of different proportions of wheat bran, shorts, and flour, hereafter referred to as wheat fractions.

Determination and Apparent Digestibility of Neutral Detergent Fiber Monosaccharides in Women

The Journal of Nutrition, 1983
The neutral monosaccharides in neutral detergent fiber (NDF) extracted from low and high cellulose diets and from feces excreted by seven women consuming the same diet were determined. In addition, apparent digestibilities of the NDF neutral monosaccharides during consumption of both diets were compared.

Neutral Detergent Fiber, Hemicellulose and Cellulose Digestibility in Human Subjects

The Journal of Nutrition, 1981
The fate of dietary fiber and its components was examined in seven women consuming low cellulose (LC) and high cellulose (HC) diets, each for about 1 month. The diets were of constant daily composition and differed only in that the HC diet contained an additional 16 g/day non-nutritive fiber (Solka Floc), which increased the neutral detergent fiber ...

Improvement and validation of the method to determine neutral detergent fiber in feed

Animal Science Journal, 2012
ABSTRACTTo improve the performance of the analytical method for neutral detergent fiber in feed with heat‐stable α‐amylase treatment (aNDFom), the process of adding heat‐stable α‐amylase, as well as other analytical conditions, were examined. In this new process, the starch in the samples was removed by adding amylase to neutral detergent (ND) solution

Does the level of forage neutral detergent fiber affect the ruminal fermentation, digestibility and feeding behavior of goats fed cactus pear?

Animal science journal = Nihon chikusan Gakkaiho, 2018
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of forage neutral detergent fiber (fNDF) levels on the voluntary feed intake, digestibility, ruminal fermentation and feeding behavior of goats fed diets with cactus pear.

The Neutral Detergent Fiber, Acid Detergent Fiber, Crude Fiber, and Lignin Contents of Distillers’ Dried Grains with Solubles

Journal of Food Science, 1987
ABSTRACTDistillers’ dried grains with solubles (DDGS) were prepared from two cultivars of soft white winter wheat, a blend of red wheats and corn. DDGS made from the three whole wheat grains and corn contained, on a dry weight basis, 30–55% neutral detergent fiber (NDF), 10–14% acid detergent fiber, 7–9% crude fiber, and 2–4% lignin, an increase of 3–4
