Nitrogen Source Availability and Activity of Rumen Microorganisms

Proteolytic activity of rumen microorganisms and effects of proteinase inhibitors.

Proteolytic activity of the bovine rumen microflora was studied with azocasein as the substrate. Approximately 25% of the proteolytic activity of rumen contents was recovered in the strained rumen fluid fraction, and the balance of the activity was associated with the particulate fraction. The proportion of proteinase activity associated with particulate material decreased when the quantity of ...

Residue of horse serum purification as a nitrogen source for growth of microorganisms, l-Clostridia

Nitrogen availability of anaerobic swine lagoon sludge: sludge source effects.

Increased numbers of swine producers will be removing sludge from their anaerobic waste treatment lagoons in the next few years, due to sludge exceeding designed storage capacity. Information on availability of nitrogen (N) in the sludge is needed to improve application recommendations for crops. The objective of this study was to investigate possible effects of different companies and types of...

Assimilation of Inorganic Cobalt into Rumen Microorganisms

Assimilation of ionic cobalt by axenic cultures of four species of anaerobic rumen bacteria was measured using 6oCo as cobalt (II) chloride. Uptake could be measured in all four species but may not represent active accumulation in the case of Lactobacillus casei and Propionibacterium acnes. Significant uptake (89.5% of 6oCo present) was demonstrated by Selenomonas ruminantium from media contain...
