Ruminal Protein Degradation and Estimation of Rumen Microbial Protein Production

ruminal protein degradation and estimation of rumen microbial protein production

animal agricultural production systems are major sources of nonpoint pollution affecting quality of water sources. nitrogen has been identified as the foremost source of nonpoint water pollution  and the potential negative impacts of n have become an area of public concern. protein degradation from feed ingredients is an important factorinfluencing aa supply to the duodenum. ruminal proteolysis...

Estimation of Rumen Microbial Protein Production and Ruminal Protein Degradation

Title of Dissertation: ESTIMATION OF RUMEN MICROBIAL PROTEIN PRODUCTION AND RUMINAL PROTEIN DEGRADATION. Ashley Brooke Peterson, Doctor of Philosophy, 2006 Dissertation directed by: Professor Richard A. Kohn Department of Animal and Avian Sciences Animal agricultural production systems are a major source of nitrogen (N) which may contribute to potential environmental pollution and one way to re...

Ruminal Feed Protein Degradation and Microbial Protein Synthesis

Dose-Response Effects of Various Rumen Microbial Modifier Essential Oils on Protein Degradation Using in vitro Gas Production Technique

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of various doses of essential oils (EO) of thyme (TEO) or cinnamon (CEO) on in vitro rumen degradation of protein of a commercial total mixed ratio (TMR) containing 16.4% crud protein (CP). Treatments were TMR without any of EOs (control); control plus 25 µL of TEO (TEO25); control plus 50 µL of TEO (TEO50); control plus 25 µL of CEO (CEO25) ...

The estimation of ruminal protein degradation parameters of various feeds using in vitro modified gas production technique

This study was conducted to determine in vitro crude protein degradation (IVDP) parameters and effective crude protein degradability (EPD) of various feeds using the modified in vitro gas production (GP) technique. Feed samples were alfalfa hay, soybean meal, soybean, rapeseed meal, sunflower meal and fish meal. Rumen fluid was collected before the morning feeding from four rumen fistulated lam...
