Effect of tannins and drying methods on in vitro dry matter and crude protein degradability and digestibility of soybean meal for ruminants

Scientific Reports
Soybean meal is a widely used protein source for ruminants, but its high ruminal degradability can limit its nutritional value. Tannins reduce ruminal crude protein degradability by forming tannin-protein complexes, which are facilitated by water ...

In vitro and in sacco determination of neutral detergent fibre digestibility of treated cereal straw

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cereal straw is hardly digestible due to its complex bonds of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. That is why chemical treatments, such as with sodium hydroxide, may help to loosen the bonds and thus increase ruminal digestibility. Neutral detergent fibre (NDF) digestibility is a good predictor of feed intake.

Effect of maceration of bromegrass-alfalfa silage on ruminal degradability and performance of lactating dairy cows

, 2006
Maceration of bromegrass-alfalfa sward increased effective ruminal degradability of dry matter, neutral detergent fibre, and gross energy, but decreased the degradability of protein.

Intake, Digestibility, and Ruminal Degradability of Shredded Hay

Journal of Dairy Science, 1994
Thirty-two Outaouais intact male lambs averaging 39.1 kg were assigned randomly to a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments consisting of two forages and two methods of harvesting to determine intake and digestibility. The four treatments fed during the experiment consisted of alfalfa and timothy hays harvested with either a prototype mat maker or a

Effect of dehydration on ruminal degradability of lucerne [PDF]

Annales de Zootechnie, 2000
The effects of industrial dehydration and a subsequent compression at high pressures on rumen degradability of lucerne were determined in 3 samples obtained at harvest or after the process of dehydration and compression of this forage. Rumen degradability of dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) was determined by the nylon bag technique in 3 ruminally ...

Use of natural ensiling additives with tropical grasses: Physicochemical properties, in vitro fermentation characteristics, and microbial community diversity indices

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Improving feed quality, availability, and cost‐effectiveness is a big challenge for livestock to ensure animal‐derived food for nutritional security. The aim of the study was to find out how some natural ensiling additives affect physicochemical properties, proximate composition, microbial population, in vitro fermentation ...

Degradabilidade in situ dos grãos de crambe, girassol e soja, e de seus coprodutos em ovinos = In situ ruminal degradability of crambe, sunflower and soybean seeds and their by-products in sheep feeding

Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2010
Avaliou-se a degradabilidade ruminal in situ, em ovinos dos grãos e coprodutos de girassol, soja e crambe, em três ovinos da raça Santa Inês com peso de 40 kg, fistulados e providos de cânulas ruminais, mantidos em baias individuais.

Effects of Branched-chain Amino Acids on Ruminal Fermentation of Wheat Straw [PDF]

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2013
This study investigates the effects of three branched-chain amino acids (BCAA; valine, leucine, and isoleucine) on the in vitro ruminal fermentation of wheat straw using batch cultures of mixed ruminal microorganisms.

Electrophoretic Analysis of Ruminal Degradability of Corn Proteins

Journal of Dairy Science, 1994
Albumin, globulin, and prolamin fractions were extracted from corn meal in water, .5 M NaCl, and 50% (vol/vol) 1-propanol and examined by SDS-PAGE and densitometric scanning to investigate fractional degradation rates of corn proteins. Several protein fractions were identified for globulins, zein prolamins, and glutelins.
