Simulation and validation of the ruminal digestion of carbohydrates in cattle from kinetic parameters obtained by in vitro gas production technique

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2011
This study aimed to validate the estimates of the ruminal degradation of total carbohydrates (TC), ruminal and total digestion of fibrous carbohydrates (FC) and microbial nitrogen flow in the abomasum evaluated by in vitro gas production technique (IVGP).

Impact of ruminant digestion on germination of native warm‐season grasses in the southeastern United States

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Many forage grasses increase seed dispersal by having their seeds ingested by grazing animals and later deposited elsewhere, reducing parent‐plant offspring competition and improving germination conditions. This study discusses the dissemination of seeds by livestock to spread desired plant species across grassland and pastures. The effects of

Effects of Rosemary, Citronella, and Tea Tree Essential Oils on Fermentation Characteristics and Aerobic Stability of Sorghum Silage

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Rosemary, citronella, and tea tree essential oils were evaluated as natural additives for sorghum silage at four inclusion levels (0, 500, 1000, and 2000 mg kg−1 of fresh forage). Rosemary essential oil improved fermentation by increasing crude protein while reducing ammonia nitrogen and butyric acid concentrations.

In vitro degradation of betaine by ruminal microbes

open access: yesKansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports, 2000
An in vitro study was conducted to evaluate the degradation of betaine sources by rumen microbes. Five sources of betaine (anhydrous betaine, betaine-HCl, feed-grade betaine, lipidcoated betaine, and concentrated separator byproduct) were incubated in rumen fluid collected from steers fed grainor forage-based diets.

Nitrogen degradation of the limestone-urea mixtures in the rumen of goats

open access: yesJournal of the Indonesian Tropical Animal Agriculture, 2018
This experiment was aimed to study the degradation kinetics of limestone-urea mixtures in the goats rumen using the nylon bag technique. Samples of limestone were obtained from two limestone mountains, Pamotan Subdistrict of Central Java Province and ...

Harnessing microbial metabolism and nutrition to target the gut–mammary axis for better livestock production and health

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
The gut–mammary axis integrates intestinal health with mammary function through neural, endocrine, and immune pathways. Nutritional interventions (probiotics, prebiotics, metabolites) improve gut microecology, generating microbial signals that travel via the axis to the mammary gland. There, they relieve inflammation, enhance milk quality and lactation,

Starch and oil in the donor cow diet and starch in substrate differently affect the in vitro ruminal biohydrogenation of linoleic and linolenic acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Trans isomers of fatty acids exhibit different health properties. Among them, trans-10,cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid has negative effects on milk fat production and can affect human health.

Effects of Different Growth Stages of Amaranth Silage on the Rumen Degradation of Dairy Cows

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
The purpose of this study was to investigate the rumen degradation characteristic of amaranth silage (Amaranthus hypochondriacus) including four kinds of growing stages (budding stage (BS), 50 d after planting (DAP); early flowering stage (ES), 58 DAP ...

Bile acid metabolism and signaling in human and animal health: A One Health perspective

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
Bile acids maintain host homeostasis through enterohepatic circulation, microbial transformation, and bile acid receptor signaling, thereby regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, intestinal barrier integrity, and immunity. These effects support human disease intervention and health‐oriented animal production, reducing drug dependence and residue ...

Effect of Phosphate Fertilization and Cutting Date Improves Nutritional Status and Productive Parameters of a Tropical Forage Legume

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of chemical fertilizers is economically and environmentally costly to produce and apply. Therefore, optimized fertilizer use is critical to increase or maintain crop yields. We evaluated the productive and nutritional characteristics of the Stylosanthes cv “Campo Grande” submitted to different cutting date and phosphate fertilization ...
