Methane Fermentation in the Rumen of Cattle

Nature, 1952
THE production of methane in the fore-stomachs of ruminants is of much importance, considering the fact that a cow produces about 500 l. of methane daily1, which comprises about 10 per cent of the energy value of the digestible nutrients in the feed consumed.

Hydrogen as an intermediate in the rumen fermentation

Archiv f�r Mikrobiologie, 1967
A method for measuring the steady state concentration of hydrogen gas dissolved in rumen contents was developed, which consisted of equilibrating the intercellular fluid with sterile salt solution within a dialysis sac immersed in the rumen or in the in vitro system under study.

Rumen Microbiome, Probiotics, and Fermentation Additives

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2017
Fermentation of a variety of feedstuffs by the ruminal microbiome is the distinctive feature of the ruminant digestive tract. The host derives energy and nutrients from microbiome activity; these organisms are essential to survival. Advances in DNA sequencing and bioinformatics have redefined the rumen microbial community.

Effects of rumen-degradable protein balance on rumen fermentation in continuous culture fermenters

Frontiers of Agriculture in China, 2011
Twelve dual-flow continuous culture fermenters (culture 8 d with 5 d for adjustment and 3 d for sample collection) were used to evaluate the effects of rumen-degradable protein balance (RDPB) on rumen fermentation. The different RDPB levels in six diets were as follows: − 16.84, − 8.87, − 0.87, + 7.13, + 15.13, and + 23.12 g RDPB /kg DM.

Effects of Monensin and Amicloral on Rumen Fermentation

Journal of Animal Science, 1980
Fermentative adjustments produced by monensin and amicloral and by combinations of monensin plus amicloral were investigated in vitro. Monensin increased (P < .05) production of propionate, usually decreased production of acetate and butyrate and partially reduced methanogenesis, but no accumulation of gaseous hydrogen was observed.

The fermentative characteristics of anaerobic rumen fungi

Biosystems, 1988
Substrate utilization and fermentation characteristics of rumen fungi of the genus Neocallimastix are described. Preliminary observations on the removal of monosaccharides from plant cell walls and the effect of fermentation products on growth of Neocallimastix sp. (isolate R1) are presented.

The fermentation of glucose in small artificial rumen

Archiv für Tierernaehrung, 1982
The fermentation of glucose (in concentrations 0-25-50-75-100 mg/ml of rumen contents of cow and sheep) was studied after 3 hour incubation in small scale artificial rumen. High values of total gas production was observed in 1st and 2nd hour of incubation.

Fermentation in the Rumen and Human Large Intestine

Science, 1981
Fermentation of food by the microbial community of the rumen is essential for the maintenance and growth of ruminants. The microbial ecosystem and its interaction with the host are described, along with recent attempts to manipulate the composition and activity of the microbial community by adding antibiotics and other chemicals to ruminant diets.

Effect of nisin and monensin on rumen fermentation in the artificial rumen.

Berliner und Munchener tierarztliche Wochenschrift, 2002
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of nisin and monensin on rumen fermentation of diets containing hay and barley (80:20%) in artificial rumen (Rusitec system). The Rusitec system consisted of four fermentation vessels (V1, V2, V3, V4): V1 was without additives (control), V2 received daily 2 mg of nisin, V3 involved 5 mg of ...
