Proteolysis in the Sheep Rumen by Whole and Fractionated Rumen Contents [PDF]
SUMMARY: The proteolytic activity of the whole rumen fluid of sheep does not depend on the diet of the animals. The optimum pH value for proteolysis lies between 6 and 7, with an irregular maximum at about pH 6·5. All fractions of rumen contents (protozoa, large bacteria and small bacteria) show activity. Proteolytic activity can be demonstrated in the

Enteric methane mitigation strategies in ruminants: a review
Livestock farming in Latin America has been criticized because of its large greenhouse gas (GHG) production resulting from the use of degraded forage and low-efficiency production performance.

Effects of fermentation products of silage on its intake by cattle [PDF]
The end-products of silage fermentation have been implicated as factors limiting its intake by ruminant animals, although the contribution of individual chemical components is not clearly understood. A series of experiments were conducted to investigate

The complete genome sequence of the rumen bacterium Butyrivibrio hungatei MB2003
Butyrivibrio hungatei MB2003 was isolated from the plant-adherent fraction of rumen contents from a pasture-grazed New Zealand dairy cow, and was selected for genome sequencing in order to examine its ability to degrade plant polysaccharides.

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, 25 times more efficient at trapping heat than carbon dioxide. Ruminant methane emissions contribute almost 30% to anthropogenic sources of global atmospheric methane levels and a reduction in methane emissions would ...

Influence of Inoculum Content on Performance of Anaerobic Reactors for Treating Cattle Manure using Rumen Fluid Inoculum [PDF]
Biogas productions of cattle manure using rumen fluid inoculums were determined using batch anaerobic digesters at mesophilic temperatures (room and 38.5 oC). The aim of this paper was to analyze the influence of rumen fluid contents on biogas yield from

Lightweight Rumen Cannula for Rumen Motility Studies
Abstract Rumen fistula plugs and cannulas have been developed for various purposes. If the ingesta is to be completely removed from the rumen, a large fistula and plug are necessary (2). For the periodic removal of small volumes of rumen ingesta, the plug of Komarek and Leffel (3) is very sturdy and satisfactory; however, we have had trouble making ...

Plasmids are episomally replicating genetic elements which carry backbone genes that are important for their replication and maintenance within their host, and accessory genes that might confer an advantage to their host in its ecological niche. As such, they are often perceived as a powerful evolutionary force, which horizontally introduces new traits
