Starch and oil in the donor cow diet and starch in substrate differently affect the in vitro ruminal biohydrogenation of linoleic and linolenic acids [PDF]
Trans isomers of fatty acids exhibit different health properties. Among them, trans-10,cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid has negative effects on milk fat production and can affect human health.

Sodium bicarbonate as prevention of metabolic acidosis in sheep submitted to experimental ruminal acidosis [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the preventive effect of sodium bicarbonate on systemic acidosis due to ruminal acidosis, which was induced by ingestion of concentrate after prolonged fasting.

Prediction of Ruminal pH from Pasture-Based Diets
This study identified suitable predictors of ruminal pH and identified relationships between ruminal pH and animal measures for diets based on fresh pasture. Animal and dietary variables (121 treatment means from six countries) were collated from 23 studies of lactating dairy cows fed pasture. Mean daily ruminal pH ranged from 5.6 to 6.7 across studies.

Starch plus sunflower oil addition to the diet of dry dairy cows results in a trans-11 to trans-10 shift of biohydrogenation [PDF]
Trans fatty acids (FA), exhibit different biological properties. Among them, cis-9,trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid has some interesting putative health properties, whereas trans-10,cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid has negative effects on cow milk fat ...

Effect of induction of subacute ruminal acidosis on milk fat profile and rumen parameters [PDF]
High-concentrate diets can lead to subacute ruminal acidosis and are known to result in changes of the ruminal fermentation pattern and mammary secretion of fatty acids.

Effect of pH and level of concentrate in the diet on the production of biohydrogenation intermediates in a dual-flow continuous culture [PDF]
Milk fat depression in cows fed high-grain diets has been related to an increase in the concentration of trans-10 C-18:1 and trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in milk.

Influence of ruminal degradable intake protein restriction on characteristics of digestion and growth performance of feedlot cattle during the late finishing phase. [PDF]
Two trials were conducted to evaluate the influence of supplemental urea withdrawal on characteristics of digestion (Trial 1) and growth performance (Trial 2) of feedlot cattle during the last 40 days on feed.

Maximizing efficiency of rumen microbial protein production. [PDF]
Rumen microbes produce cellular protein inefficiently partly because they do not direct all ATP toward growth. They direct some ATP toward maintenance functions, as long-recognized, but they also direct ATP toward reserve carbohydrate synthesis and ...
