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...

this study was conducted to determine the effects of addition of the pomegranate seed oil (pso) in the diet on growth performance, diet digestibility and rumen fermentation parameters of fattening lambs. twenty one sanjabi lambs, with average body weight of 27.5±2.6 kg and 3 months of age, were used in a completely randomized design with 3 treatments and 7 replicates.the experimental treatments...

Investigating the Effect of Replacing Soybean Meal with Poultry Slaughterhouse Waste Mixed Rice Bran and Urea on Performance, Blood Rumen Parameters Fattening Lambs

In this study, nine male Dallagh sheep (initial weight 35±2 kg) were used in a replicated 3 × 3 latin square design experiment with three treatments and three 21-day periods (14 d adaptation, 7 d collection). Treatments were control (without addition) and two treatment diets containing 10% dry matter Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) and Urtica dioica (nettle) powder. The dry matt...

The Effect of Iranian and Foreign Milk Substitutes on Performance, Blood Parameters, Characteristics Internal Carcass Organs Rumen Development Lambs at Weaning

Due to the incorporation of niacin into the coenzymes NAD and NADP, niacin is of great importance for the metabolism of man and animals. Apart from niacin in feed and endogenous formation, microbial niacin synthesis in the rumen is an important source for dairy cows. But the amount synthesised seems to differ greatly, which might be influenced by the ration fed. Many studies revealed a positive...

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of oleic (OA), linoleic (LA) and α-linolenic (ALA) acid used as supplements (3.5% wt/wt) to a diet containing 80% lucerne and 20% barley on rumen fermentation and lipid metabolism in an artificial rumen (Rusitec). The experiment lasted 12 days with 6 days of stabilization period. The fatty acid (FA) supplementation to a mixed diet did not af...

This study was aimed at investigating the hematological, biochemical and trace mineral status of cattle with foreign body rumen impaction. Hematological, serum biochemical and trace mineral parameters of cattle with Foreign Body Rumen impaction (FBR) and normal cattle Without Foreign Body Rumen impaction (WFBR) were analyzed in order to evaluate their influence as risk factors in the etio-patho...

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...
