Estimation of silage VOC emission impacts of surface-applied additives by GC-MS

Atmospheric Environment: X, 2023
Ensiling, the process of microbial acidification and preservation of wet forage for livestock feed that yields silage, produces a significant amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Measurement of the chemical species involved, their emission to the

Glycerin as an additive for sugarcane silage

Annals of Microbiology, 2014
The ensiling of sugarcane induces loss of energy by alcoholic fermentation, and the addition of crude glycerin may improve the nutritional value of this forage. The objective of this work was to evaluate sugarcane silage with different concentrations of glycerin and the response of different starter cultures to the changes in microbial diversity ...

Enhancing Meat Quality Through Dietary Fiber: Insights Into the Gut Microbiota‐Derived Short‐Chain Fatty Acids‐Muscle Axis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of
