Replacing Barley and Soybean Meal With By-products, in a Pasture Based Diet, Alters Daily Methane Output and the Rumen Microbial Community in vitro Using the Rumen Simulation Technique (RUSITEC)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Plant based by-products (BP) produced from food and bioethanol industries are human inedible, but can be recycled into the global food chain by ruminant livestock.

Optimization of RUSITEC model adaptations for in vitro simulation of subacute ruminal acidosis and evaluation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae supplementation on microbial fermentation and stability

Frontiers in Animal Science
There is a growing need for alternative research models to reduce or replace animal use in feed and feed additive testing. In vitro model development could provide value added data in the assessment of feed additives for microbial modulation in cattle ...

Nutritive evaluation of pulse chunies available in India by rumen simulation technique (Rusitec)

Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2016
Chunies of pulses viz. black gram (Vigna mungo, BGC), bengal gram (Cicer arietinum, BnGC), red gram (Cajanus cajan, RGC) and green gram (Vigna radiata, RGC) were analyzed for their proximate composition.

An In Vitro Nutritional Evaluation of Mixed Silages of Drought-Impaired Grass and Sugar Beet Pulp With or Without Silage Inoculants. [PDF]

J Anim Physiol Anim Nutr (Berl)
ABSTRACT Increasing droughts adversely affect grasslands, diminishing the availability and quality of forages for ruminants. We have recently shown that mixed ensiling of drought‐impaired grass (DIG) with sugar beet pulp (SBP) improved the conservation and feed value of silage.

Temperate seaweeds Himanthalia elongata and Fucus vesiculosus significantly reduce rumen methane emissions in vitro due to their high phlorotannin content. [PDF]

J Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND Global food insecurity and the fact that food production contributes around 30% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is a major planetary challenge. Ruminant products are widely consumed since they are macro‐ and micronutrient dense; however, ruminants produce enteric methane (CH4), a potent GHG.

Winery by-products as a feed source with functional properties: dose-response effect of grape pomace, grape seed meal, and grape seed extract on rumen microbial community and their fermentation activity in RUSITEC. [PDF]

J Anim Sci Biotechnol, 2023
Grape and winery by-products have nutritional values for cattle and also contain functional compounds like phenols, which not only bind to protein but can also directly affect microbiota and their function in the rumen.

Evaluation of ruminal methane and ammonia formation and microbiota composition as affected by supplements based on mixtures of tannins and essential oils using Rusitec. [PDF]

J Anim Sci Biotechnol
Dietary supplements based on tannin extracts or essential oil compounds (EOC) have been repeatedly reported as a promising feeding strategy to reduce the environmental impact of ruminant husbandry.

Effect of ergot alkaloids and a mycotoxin deactivating product on in vitro ruminal fermentation using the Rumen simulation technique (RUSITEC). [PDF]

J Anim Sci, 2022
The rumen simulation technique (RUSITEC) was used to investigate the effect of ergot alkaloids (EA) and a mycotoxin deactivating product (Biomin AA; MDP) on nutrient digestion, ruminal fermentation parameters, total gas, methane, and microbial nitrogen ...

Effects of cleavers (galium aparine) and yarrow (achillea millefolium) extracts on rumen microbial fermentation in in-vitro semi- continuous culture system (rusitec) [PDF]

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2020
Experimental data on the effects of cleavers (Galium aparine) and yarrow (Achillea millefolium) extracts on rumen microbial fermentation are scarce. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of cleavers and yarrow extracts on in vitro ...

Production and Utilization of Fermented Rice Bran as Animal Feed. [PDF]

Anim Sci J
ABSTRACT Rice bran, a byproduct of milling rice (Oryza sativa), is widely used in Asian preserved foods and the feed industry. Rich in carbohydrates, protein, fat, and various bioactive compounds, it offers significant growth and health benefits. It is commonly used as a replacement for cereals and grains as an energy source in the diet.
