Fermentation of Cottonseed and Other Feedstuffs in Cattle Rumen Fluid

Fermentation of cottonseed and other feedstuffs in cattle rumen fluid.

Bovine rumen fluid was fermented anaerobically over 48 h with cottonseed, corn, alfalfa, or a mixture of these substrates in anaerobic mineral buffer. Samples taken at different incubation times were derivatized with n-butanol and subjected to gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy. No unusual fermentation end-products from the cottonseed substrate were detected. Cottonseed supported rumen fe...

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

Metabolisable Energy, In situ Rumen Degradation and In vitro Fermentation Characteristics of Linted Cottonseed Hulls, Delinted Cottonseed Hulls and Cottonseed Linter Residue

Dietary supplementation with conventional linted cottonseed hulls (LCSH) is a common practice in livestock production all over the world. However, supplementation with mechanically delinted cottonseed hulls (DCSH) and cottonseed linter residue (CLR) is uncommon. Cottonseed by-products, including LCSH, DCSH and CLR, were assessed by chemical analysis, an in situ nylon bag technique, an in vitro ...

Relationship of rumen fluid dilution rate to rumen fermentation and dietary characteristics of beef steers.

Data from seven beef steer trials were compiled and regression analyses used to evaluate relationships among molar proportions of acetate (Ac), propionate (Pr) and butyrate (Bu), total concentration of volatile fatty acids (VFA), rumen ammonia (NH3), rumen pH, rumen fluid dilution rate (FDR), rumen fluid volume (FVOL), body weight (WT), dry matter intake (DMI) and dietary concentration and inta...

the effect of oxytetracycline on serum calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in cattle

نتایج این مطالعه نشان می دهد که مقدار کلسیم (یونیزه و تام)، منیزیم و فسفر به طور معنی داری تغییر پیدا کرد به جزء مقدار کلسیم تام و منیزیم در روش داخل عضلانی که تغییر معنی داری نداشته است. بر اساس نتایج این مطالعه می توان نتیجه گیری کرد که اکسی تتراساکلین بر روی مقادیر سرمی کلسیم و منیزیم تأثیر می گذارد باید مقدار این کاتیون ها در بیماران، در هنگامی که اکسی تتراسایکلین استفاده می شود مورد توجه ق...
