Dry Matter and Crude Protein Degradability ofMopane Worm (Imbrasia belina) in Rumen of Steers

In situ dry matter and crude protein degradability in corn,wheat and millet grain

Effect of Dry Matter Content and Inoculation on Ruminal Protein Degradability in Alfalfa Silages

The aim of the experiment was to determine the effect of different dry matter content and addition of silage inoculant on the ruminal protein degradability. Alfalfa herbage was collected from two cuts and the fresh matter was sampled two times during each cut (with different dry matter content). During the preparation of experimental micro-silages, the chopped forage was treated with a microbia...

Effects of microwaving, and moist and dry heating on ruminal degradability of protein and dry matter in soybean meal

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of microwaving, autoclaving (moist heating), and roasting (dry heating) on gas production parameters and in situ rumen degradability of soybean meal (SBM). SBM was treated by roasting at 140℃ for 30 and 60 min, and at 160℃ for 30 and 60 min, autoclaving at 121℃ for 20 min, and microwaving for 2, 4, and 6 min. A gas production trial...

Effect of Supplementation of Alfalfa Silage with Lactobacillus Buchneri Additive, Orange Pulp and Molasses on Dry Matter, Crude Protein and Organic Matter Degradability by Nylon Bags

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of supplementation of alfalfa silage with Lactobacillus buchneri additive, orange pulp and molasses on dry matter, crude protein and organic matter degradability by nylon bags. The treatments included: alfalfa silage (control treatment), alfalfa silage processed with bacterial additive, 3×108 cfu/g, alfalfa and orange pulp silage, alfalfa...

Effects of additives on chemical composition, degradability coefficients and ruminal-intestinal disappearance of dry matter and crude protein of laboratory ensiled olive cake

The chemical composition, degradability coefficients (in situ) and ruminal-intestinal disappearance(mobile bag procedure) of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) were evaluated for olive cake (OC)silages treated (DM basis) with additives as follows: (1) untreated OC, (2) OC + 0.5% urea, (3) OC + 0.4%formic acid, (4) OC + 8% molasses, (5) OC + 0.5% urea + 8% molasses, (6) OC + 0.5% urea + 0.4%...

Rumen Degradability and Post-ruminal Digestion of Dry Matter, Nitrogen and Amino Acids of Three Protein Supplements

This study evaluated the in situ ruminal degradability, and subsequent small intestinal digestibility (SID) of dry matter, crude protein (CP), and amino acids (AA) of cottonseed meal (CSM), sunflower seed meal (SFSM) and distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) by using the modified three-step in vitro procedure. The ruminal degradability and subsequent SID of AA in rumen-undegradable prote...
