the aim of this paper was to study of the effect of fenugreek seed (trigonella foenum-graecum) and asparagus root (asparagus officinalis) on in vitro digestibility and kinetics of gas production of alfalfa hay. fenugreek seed (fs) and asparagus root (ar) were added at different levels (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% of dm). total phenolic components of alfalfa hay (ah), fenugreek seed (fs) and asparagus ...

The present study was conducted to identify nutritional value of Rumex obtusifolius in three phenological stages (vegetative growth, flowering, and maturity). Samples were randomly taken in pastures of Saravan in Rasht, Iran in 2015. After drying and grinding, the chemical compositions of Crude Protein (CP), Crude Fiber (CF), Ether Extract (EE), Total Ash (ASH), Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF), a...

The effect of inclusion of garlic essential oil (EO) at 33, 66 and 100 µg mL(-1), raw garlic (GAR) at 5, 10 and 15 mg mL(-1) and monensin (MON) at 7.5 µg mL(-1) of incubation medium on organic matter digestibility (OMD) was studied with in vitro gas production, ANKOM daisy(II) and conventional in vitro (IVOMD) methods. The material was incubated with sheep ruminal fluid and the experimental des...

Abstract Studies on identifying numerous algae species to study the digestibility of rumen have yet be widely reported, especially with from tropical oceans. This experimentation was created assess gas production four Kelapa beach, Tuban, East Java, in vitro . The used a randomized block design treatments (four species: Laminaria sp., Padina australis, Eucheuma cottonii , and Gracilaria sp.) re...

the present experiment aimed at increasing orange peel and sugar beet pulp protein content through solid-state fermentation by trichoderma reesei and trichoderma viride. in vitro digestibility and changes in the chemical composition of the fermented products were determined after seven days of fungal cultivation using gas production tests. the cultivation of t. reesei and t. viride on orange pe...

The aim of this study was to determine possible differences between first cut and second cut forage of Birjand ecotype of Kochia scoparia for chemical composition and fermentability, and to evaluate the changes may be induced by N fertilization in chemical composition, fermentability, and utilizable crude protein (uCP) supply at the duodenum of dairy cows of Sabzevar ecotype of Kochia....

This study was conducted to compare the methane (CH4) production estimated by in vivo (sulfur hexafluoride tracer technique (SF6)) with that of two in vitro rumen simulation (RUSITEC) and gas production (IVGPT)) techniques. Four adult dry Holstein cows, aged 7.4±3.0 years and weighing 697±70 kg, were used for measuring methane production from five diets by the SF6 technique. The experimental di...
