Special Rumen Microbiology

Bacteria make up about half of the living organisms inside of the rumen. However, they do more than half of the work in the rumen. The bacteria work together. Some breakdown certain carbohydrates and proteins which are then used by others. Some require certain growth factors, such as B-vitamins, which are made by others. Some bacteria help to clean up the rumen of others’ end products, such as ...

Microbiology of the Rumen

Symposium on Microbiology of the Rumen.

The importance of microorganisms to the mixed activities could be obtained. For this ruminant has interested an increasing number of reason, and because the pure culture approach nutritionists, particularly those in departments is time consuming, methods for studying the of animal science. In view of this interest of natural mixture have been developed. The inagricultural workers, it is surpris...

Impact of UMMB Supplementation on Rumen Microbiology in Buffalo Calves (Bubalus Bubalis)

The effect of UMMB supplementation on rumen micro ora was investigated in  fteen healthy rumen  stulated buffalo calves divided into three groups having  ve animals in each. The animals of group I, II and III were kept on conventional diet, wheat straw alone and wheat straw supplemented with UMMB, respectively. Rumen liquor samples were collected at different time intervals for three consec...

Board-invited review: Rumen microbiology: leading the way in microbial ecology.

Robert Hungate, considered the father of rumen microbiology, was the first to initiate a systematic exploration of the microbial ecosystem of the rumen, but he was not alone. The techniques he developed to isolate and identify cellulose-digesting bacteria from the rumen have had a major impact not only in delineating the complex ecosystem of the rumen but also in clinical microbiology and in th...
