Initial pH as a determinant of cellulose digestion rate by mixed ruminal microorganisms in vitro.
In vitro fermentations of pure cellulose by mixed ruminal microorganisms were conducted under conditions in which pH declined within ranges similar to those observed in the rumen. At low cellulose concentrations (12.5 g/L), the first-order rate constants (k) of cellulose disappearance were successively lower at initial pH values of 6.86, 6.56, and 6.02, but in each case the value of k was maint...
متن کاملEffect of cellulose fine structure on kinetics of its digestion by mixed ruminal microorganisms in vitro.
The digestion kinetics of a variety of pure celluloses were examined by using an in vitro assay employing mixed ruminal microflora and a modified detergent extraction procedure to recover residual cellulose. Digestion of all of the celluloses was described by a discontinuous first-order rate equation to yield digestion rate constants and discrete lag times. These kinetic parameters were compare...
متن کاملDeveloping an in vitro Method for Determining Feed Soluble Protein Degradation Rate by Mixed Ruminal Microorganisms
The objective of this work was to describe a novel in vitro system based on the subtraction of ammonia pools obtained with and without rumen fluid inoculum to determine the soluble protein fraction of feeds and their degradability, with adjustments for microbial contributions and bacterial contamination. Four corn-milling coproducts were used in this study as random factors. The feeds (Fd) were...
متن کاملA protease additive increases fermentation of alfalfa diets by mixed ruminal microorganisms in vitro.
In vitro experiments were conducted to examine the characteristics and mode of action of a protease that increased the ruminal fiber digestibility of alfalfa hay. A commercial source of protease (Protex 6L, Genencor Int., Rochester, NY), already characterized for its main activities, was further analyzed to determine protease activity in response to pH, molecular size by SDS-PAGE, specificity t...
