Synergistic Bioconversion of Date Palm Leaves Into Ruminant Feed by a Leopard Moth (Zeuzera pyrina L.) Gut Bacterial Consortium and Nutrient Stimulators

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Treating date palm leaves with a bacterial consortium, especially when supplemented with glucose and urea, significantly degrades lignin. This process enhances nutritional value by increasing crude protein, digestibility, and metabolizable energy. The method effectively transforms this agricultural by‐product into a viable ruminant feed.

Effects of short-term fasting on rumen microbiota and rumen fermentation characteristics [PDF]

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2019
Objective Fasting may lead to changes in the microbiota and activity in the rumen. In the present study, the effects of fasting on rumen microbiota and the impact of fasting on in vitro rumen fermentation were evaluated using molecular culture ...

Random changes in the heifer rumen in bacterial community structure,physico-chemical and fermentation parameters, and in vitro fiber degradation [PDF]

, 2011
The variability over time of several main ruminal characteristics was studied in heifers over 15 consecutive weeks. Three heifers were assigned to a low-fiber diet (27% NDF) and three to a high-fiber diet (44% NDF).

1H‐Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Metabolic Profiling of Pantaneiro and Curraleiro Beef Breeds: Unveiling Adaptation Mechanisms in Brazilian Livestock

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study provides the first metabolomic characterization of serum from Pantaneiro and Curraleiro beef cattle, unveiling their unique adaptations to the Pantanal and Cerrado biomes of Brazil. Blood was collected during the summer season to capture metabolic responses to extreme environmental conditions, including high temperatures and varying humidity.

Preliminary Study on the Impact of Ruminal Ciliate Inoculation in Fauna-Free Conditions on the Ruminal Fermentation and Ciliate–Prokaryote Association In Vitro

Fermentation
Ruminants rely on the rumen for the anaerobic fermentation of fibrous plant materials, facilitated by a complex microbial community of bacteria, archaea, fungi, and ciliates.

Feeding of yeast (Candida spp.) improves in vitro ruminal fermentation of fibrous substrates

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015
In vitro gas production technique (IVGPT) was used with the objective of determining the inclusion effect of live cells of two strains of Candida yeast on in vitro ruminal fermentation of two fibrous substrates.

Metatranscriptomic analyses reveal ruminal pH regulates fiber degradation and fermentation by shifting the microbial community and gene expression of carbohydrate-active enzymes

Animal Microbiome, 2021
Background Volatile fatty acids (VFA) generated from ruminal fermentation by microorganisms provide up to 75% of total metabolizable energy in ruminants.

Starch plus sunflower oil addition to the diet of dry dairy cows results in a trans-11 to trans-10 shift of biohydrogenation [PDF]

, 2013
Trans fatty acids (FA), exhibit different biological properties. Among them, cis-9,trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid has some interesting putative health properties, whereas trans-10,cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid has negative effects on cow milk fat ...

Cassava Hay Inclusion Improves Fermentation Profile and Quality of Spineless Forage Cactus Silage

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study evaluated the chemical composition, fermentation profile, microbial populations, aerobic stability, and fermentative losses of spineless forage cactus silage supplemented with varying levels of cassava hay (0%, 7.5%, 15.0%, 22.5%, and 30.0% on a fresh matter basis).
