چکیده
7. Comparison of specific radioactivities of blood lactate and plasma glucose during the infusion of [14C]glucose or [14C]lactate indicated that about 6% of glucose was recycled through the glucose-lactate interconversion. Evidence from the relocation of 14C in glucose during the infusion of [6-_4C]glucose indicated about 10% of recycling. 8. Negligible incorporation of glucose or lactate into liver or muscle glycogen was observed.

Volatile fatty acid metabolism in sheep. 1. Average daily volatile fatty acid production in the rumen of sheep fed lucerne hay.
Changes in the total concentration of the volatile fatty acid (VFA) pool in the rumen were followed over a 24 hour period in 2 groups of sheep, 1 fed at 08h00 and the other twice daily at 08h00 and 20h00. Although similar maximum (143 and 147 meq/1) and average (100, 3 and 102, 1 meq/1) levels were found in the 12 and 24 h groups respectively, the twice daily feeding regimen resulted in a lower...
متن کاملInterconversions and production of volatile fatty acids in the sheep rumen.
1. Sheep fed at a constant rate were infused intraruminally with [1-(14)C]-acetate, -propionate or -butyrate during 5hr. periods. 2. Volatile fatty acids were estimated in the rumen contents and steady-state conditions were obtained. 3. Of the butyric acid carbon 60% was in equilibrium with 20% of the acetic acid carbon, and 2-3g.atoms of carbon were interconverted/day. 4. Little interconversio...

Anaerobic digestion is the breakdown of biodegradable organic material by microorganisms in the absence of oxygen or in an oxygen-starved environment.This technology is superior to the landfilling and also the aerobic composting. The aim of the present study was to examine whether the effluent Volatile Fatty Acids from the anaerobic acidogenesis of the food waste can be used du to its high valu...
متن کاملNumbers and characteristics of lactate-utilizing organisms in the rumen of cattle.
Elsden (1945) has shown that the volatile acids in the rumen fluid of sheep are chiefly acetic, propionic, and butyric. Barcroft, MoAnally, and Phillipson (1944) showed that the concentration of volatile acids in the blood draining the rumen was higher than that in the entering blood, indicating absorption from the rumen. Elsden postulated that propionic acid did not arise directly in cellulose...

For Iranian fermented cheese processing and ripening, different lactic acid bacteria (LAB) that affect on the physicochemical properties and hence the organoleptic characteristics of the cheese is used. Determination of physicochemical changes of cheese, particularly, organic acids is of importance. In this study five cheese formulas with five different group of cheese starters were processed a...
