Does humate supplementation affect ciliate population and fermentation parameters in the sheep rumen?

Effects of a diet containing whole cottonseed on rumen protozoal population and fermentation parameters in sheep

Effects of Fish Oil, Safflower Oil and Monensin Supplementation on Performance, Rumen Fermentation Parameters and Plasma Metabolites in Chall Sheep

Fermentation of methanol in the sheep rumen.

Sheep fed a hay-concentrate diet were adapted to pectin administration and ruminal infusion of methanol. Both treatments resulted in a strong increase in the rate of methanogenesis from methanol. Quantitative data show that methanol was exclusively converted into methane. Treatments did not influence ruminal volatile fatty acid percentages.

effect of garlic powder in the diet of sheep on digestibility, rumen fermentation and protozoa population

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of garlic powder on fermentation characteristic and rumen microbes of arabian sheep.at first step the best level of garlic was determined. then animals were fed for 35 days with control diet and supplemented with garlic (2% per kg dm). apparent digestibility, rumen fermentation parameters, number of protozoa and blood metabolites (glucose...

Thymus kotschyanus Essential Oil Components and Their Effects on in vitro Rumen Fermentation, Protozoal Population and Acidosis Parameters

This study aimed to identify chemical composition of Thymus kotschyanus essential oil (TKEO) and to evaluate the effects of different doses of TKEO on in vitro gas production, fermentation parameters, acidosis and protozoal population using a completely randomized design with four replicates. Two diets (D1: 100% forage and D2: 30% forage+70% concentrate) were incubated with buffered rumen fluid...
