Modification of the Neutral Detergent Fiber Procedure for Hays

Journal of Dairy Science, 1985
Abstract Eight hays (two each of alfalfa, bahiagrass, bermudagrass, and digitgrass) were used in three experiments to evaluate effects on neutral detergent fiber of 1) eliminating sodium sulfite and decalin from the refluxing reagent, 2) replacing sintered glass crucibles during filtration with Gooch crucibles containing glass wool mats, and 3 ...

Replacement of Alfalfa Neutral Detergent Fiber with a Combination of Nonforage Fiber Sources

Journal of Dairy Science, 1997
Sixteen Holstein cows in midlactation were used in a 4 x 4 Latin square design to determine the effect of replacing alfalfa neutral detergent fiber (NDF), with NDF from a combination of whole linted cottonseed, dried distillers grains, and wheat middlings.

<b>Reutilization of chemical waste in methodologies for analyses of neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber</b> - doi: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v35i3.18591 [PDF]

Acta Scientiarum. Animal Sciences, 2013
The disposal of chemical waste and the precision of analyses of the neutral (NDF) and acid (ADF) detergent fiber contents were evaluated utilizing conventional (Van Soest) and alternative methods of analyses. The recovery of acetone promoted both economic and environmental gains, with a recovery rate of 84.12%.
