Effects of different levels of cadmium (0.1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256 mg/l of culture medium) were evaluated using gas production technique. In the glass vials used to measure gas production 30 mg of buffered rumen fluid (2:1 ratio of rumen fluid: buffer) poured in glass and cultured at 38.6 temperature. Volume and pressure of produced gas were measured with syringes and digital pressur...

this study was conducted to compare fungi and whole rumen microorganisms (wrm) digestibility of treated sugarcane pith by fungi and of buffalos and holstein cows. dry matter (dm), neutral and acid detergent fiber (ndf and adf) digestibilities of steam treated sugarcane pith (stp) by fungi and wrm were compared with a two-steps digestion technique, gas production (gp) and specific rumen fungi cu...

this study was conducted to compare digestibility of wheat straw (ws) by fungi and whole rumen microorganisms (wrm). dry matter (dm), neutral and acid detergent fiber (ndf and adf) digestibility of ws were compared with in vitro digestion (ivd), gas production (gp) and specific rumen anaerobic fungi culture (srafc). dry matter, ndf and adf digestibility of ws by wrm of buffalo (60.80, 49.93 and...

use poor quality resources of water and soil for food production in developing countries must be considered. therefore, three experiments were conduct in complete randomize design with four replications, to study effects of gradually application of different salinity levels (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 ds.m-1) at different growth stages (planting and early seedling) and gradually application s...

in this study, the chemical composition of the tea wastes determined. the value of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, crude fiber, calcium and phosphorous 95, 94, 13.3, 23.1, 0.011 and 0.29 percent, respectively. in the experiment of digestibility by animal, five experimental rations (including tea waste and alfalfa in the proportion of 0:100, 10:90, 20:80, 25:75 and 30:70 percent) and ...
