Research frontiers in using biochar for heavy metal remediation. Abstract Heavy metal contamination of water has long been a serious environmental issue. Biochar and biochar‐based composites are emerging as effective and sustainable solutions for heavy metal removal due to their strong adsorption abilities and environmentally friendly nature.

Background Zearalenone (ZEN), a common mycotoxin in ruminant diets, could disturb the rumen ecosystem and impair rumen fermentation. Noticeably, ZEN has been shown to reduce the relative abundances of specific bacterial taxa that potentially possess ...

A Theoretical Rumen Fermentation Balance
Summary Certain assumptions are made which permit the calculation of the amounts of CO 2 and CH 4 produced in the rumen which correspond to a given molar distribution of volatile fatty acids present in rumen fluid. This calculation allows the development of a theoretical fermentation balance for a given molar distribution of volatile fatty acids ...

Effect of Ethanol on Rumen Fermentation
Summary Ethanol (800ml., 47.5%) was administered via rumen fistula during the once-daily feeding of: (1) 14lb. timothy hay plus 4lb. of equal parts of ground corn and ground corncobs or (2) Ration 1 with 3% urea replacing corn or (3) 20lb. alfalfa hay, to twin 1,100-lb. cows. Each ration was fed with and without ethanol to each cow for 14-day periods.

This study evaluated the influence of three pasture‐management systems on milk fatty acid (FA) profiles in New Zealand dairy cows: standard–contemporary (STD–CON), diverse–contemporary (DIV–CON), and diverse–regenerative (DIV–REG). The STD–CON pastures consisted of ryegrass–clover, whereas diverse pastures included up to 16 species of grasses, legumes,

Quality of Forage Cactus Silage with the Addition of Hay from Forages Adapted to the Semiarid Region
This study investigated the effects of including hays from different forages adapted to the semiarid region on the forage cactus (Opuntia fícus‐indica (L.) Mill) silage quality. A completely randomized design, with five treatments was used: pure forage cactus and forage cactus associated with 30% hay from gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium), pornunça ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Direct fed microbials (DFM) are natural and safe enteric methane mitigants for ruminant livestock systems. While previous studies have demonstrated the effect of Lactobacillus spp. on methane mitigation, challenges remain in effectively delivering DFM in extensive grazing systems. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the
