Rumen Ammonia in Relation to Characteristics of the Diet and Parameters of Nitrogen Metabolism
نویسندگان
چکیده
Relationships between ammonia levels in rumen liquor and dietary nitrogen (N) intake, the N concentration in the diet, blood urea concentration and urinary N excretion were examined in sheep fed near ad libitum on diets varying widely in chemical composition and digestibility. Rumen ammonia was positively correlated with all measures but the best relationship was with the ratio of N to digestible organic matter in the diet; possible reasons for this are discussed.

Effect of treating recycled poultry bedding with tannin extracted from pomegranate peel on rumen fermentation parameters and cellulolytic bacterial population in Arabian fattening lambs
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of recycled poultry bedding (RPB) treated with different levels of pomegranate peel extract (PPE) as a tannin source on cellulolytic bacterial population and rumen fermentation parameters of fattening lambs. For this purpose, twenty-eight Arabian lambs (19.70 ± 2.45 kg body weight, 90 ± 12 days of age) were randomly assigned to four dietary tr...
متن کاملThe Effects of Use Medicinal Plants on Rumen Fermentation Parameters in Ruminants
Rumen is a persistent and specific ecosystem consists of bacteria, protozoa and fungus where feed fermentation takes place in it. Produced Hydrogen in rumen can be used in the synthesis of the volatile fatty acids and the microbial protein and its excess would be eliminated through the production of Methane by methanogenesis. Nutritionists have tried to find ways to decrease loss and energy and...

The remnants of pesticides in livestock feeds have been increased by excessive using of these pesticides so as to meet extreme demands for more feeds. Finding a new strategy for reducing pesticides negative effects is absolutely necessary. Therefore, evaluation of the effects of sodium bentonite on blood parameters, feed digestibility and rumen fermentation parameters in sheep fed diets contami...

This study was performed to investigate the effect of different levels of potato in the diet on ruminal parameters, nutrient digestibility and rumen liquor cellulolytic enzymes including microcrystalline-cellulase and carboxymethyl-cellulase in different parts of rumen liquor (particulate material (PM), extra cellular (EC) or cellular. Twelve Dalagh ewes were used in this experiment in a comple...
