Enzymes excreted by rumen microbiome facilitate the conversion of ingested plant materials into major nutrients (e.g., volatile fatty acids (VFA) and microbial proteins) required for animal growth. Diet, animal age, and health affect the structure of the

Research progress on effect of dietary concentrate to coarse ratio on performance of ruminants
The ratio of dietary concentrate to coarse is an important factor affecting the performance of ruminants. An appropriate ratio of dietary concentrate to coarse can maintain rumen fermentation function of ruminants, stabilize rumen environment, prevent ...

Studies on the rumen fermentation by using an artificial rumen technique
第1胃内におけるVFA生成に及ぼす基質の影響について検討する目的で,in vitroの人工ルーメン法により一連の実験を実施した.実験1:各種単一基質からのVFA生成.セルロース,イネワラ,オーチャードグラス乾草,エンバク,トウモロコシ,および澱粉を基質として供試し2段階の基質濃度(5gおよび30g/300ml)で試験を行なった.VFA産生量は,基質濃度を増加することにより2倍(セルロース)から4倍(トウモロコシ)と増大したが,澱粉のみは僅かながら減少した.VFAのモル比では,プロピオン酸に対する醋酸の比率が,澱粉質基質において低く,セルロースをのぞく繊維質基質では高かった.セルロースでは,この比率が最も低い値を示した.基質濃度を変えることによって,VFAモル比にっいても変動が認められた.実験2 ...

ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) silage is a major energy source in ruminant diets and provides fermentable substrate for the rumen microbiota. In addition, forage maize contains benzoxazinoids (BXs), defence‐related secondary metabolites with antimicrobial activity that remain detectable after ensiling.

ABSTRACT An adequate supply of protein and minerals, particularly nitrogen (N) and calcium (Ca), is essential for ruminant growth and metabolic function. The rumen and salivary glands are crucial for nutrient and electrolyte homoeostasis via specialised transport proteins.

ABSTRACT Can sociologists feel? Sociological writing can be beautiful, making us think differently about people, processes, and structures. Yet traditional academic writing that does this is rare. For example, most articles adhere to a jargon‐filled format and structure that mimics a detached and disciplined writer.
