Disappearance in the Rumen of Grain Dry Matter with Different Physical Forms

the effect of task cognitive complexity and time limit on the performance of the learners with different proficiency levels in second language writing skill

this study investigated the effects of manipulating the cognitive complexity of tasks along +/- few elements and the time limits on l2 learners writing performance. to conduct the study, 60 iranian efl learners with two levels of proficiency, low and high intermediate, were selected and assigned to three groups based on the time devoted to task completion. the participants performed both a simp...

Dry Matter and Crude Protein Degradability ofMopane Worm (Imbrasia belina) in Rumen of Steers

Three cannulated Tswana steers were used to investigate the rumen degradability of mopane worm (Imbrasia belina) by measuring the amount of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) disappearing at incubation periods up to 72 h. The effective degradability (ED) of DM and CP in the rumen was calculated at outflow rates of 0.03 / h (ED0.03) and 0.05 / h(ED0.05). Rumen degradable CP (RDP) was estimat...

In situ disappearance of dry matter and fiber from fall-grown cereal-grain forages from the north-central United States.

Recent research has demonstrated that fall-grown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack), and oat (Avena sativa L.) forages contain limited lignin and exhibit relatively stable estimates of in vitro true DM disappearance, as well as TDN, across a wide fall-harvest window. These traits suggest that ruminal availability of forage fiber is extensive. Our objectives were ...

In situ dry matter and crude protein degradability in corn,wheat and millet grain

Effects of the source of non-fiber carbohydrates on in vitro first order ruminal disappearance kinetics of dry matter and NDF of various feeds

An in vitro experiment was conducted to study the effect of non-fiber carbohydrates (NFC) on ruminaldisappearance kinetics of dry matter (DM) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) of alfalfa hay, wheat bran andunmolassed sugar beet pulp. Non-supplemented or NFC supplemented samples [70 mg/g DM of each feedsample as sucrose (SU) or starch (ST) or SU + ST as 1:1] were incubated in bottles containing ...
