Abstract Although individual studies on the milk component responses to diet and rumen fermentation parameters, notably pH, have identified relationships, these not been widely summarized. Therefore, a meta-analysis was conducted with objective of evaluating how fat protein percentage change in response (D), parameters (R) combination both (R+D) variables. A secondary evaluate models differed w...

We describe a model to calculate the buffering capacity of bicarbonate in the rumen. The addition of NaHCO3 results in the release of CO2 from solution and eventually from the rumen via eructation. This process directly neutralizes ruminal acidity. The degree to which the process continues depends on the partial pressure of CO2 in the gas phase, the pH, and a constant (7.74), according to the H...

in this study, we determined the effects of replacing different levels of alfalfa with pistachio hull (ph) on feed intake, digestibility of nutrients, rumen fermentative parameters, blood metabolites and nitrogen metabolism in balochi male lambs. three male lambs (35±2 kg live weight) equipped with ruminal and abomasual cannulas were randomly assigned into a 3 × 3 latin square design. experimen...

The effects of rumen buffer agents on ruminal fermentation parameters and bacterial community composition were determined using in vitro vivo experiments three rumen-cannulated, high-concentrate fed Holstein Friesian dairy cows. Experiment 1 treatments included bentonite, calcium carbonate, oxide, sodium bicarbonate, sesquicarbonate, processed coral, unbuffered samples served as the control. 2 ...

I. The effects of processing cereals on aspects of rumen metabolism, physiology and pathology were investigated in five experiments with lambs. Three experiments studied the effects of diets containing loose whole, pelleted whole or pelleted rolled barley on rumen volatile fatty acid ratios, rumen pH and digestibility. In a 4th experiment the effects, on the same measurements, of pelleting whol...

ABSTRACT Rumen acidosis is a fatal disease that reduces milk and pregnancy yield due to digestion of cattle when not detected. Diagnosis this can be achieved by monitoring the nutritional parameters cattle. Internet Things (IoT) technology used in these kinds processes such as tracking within scope Industry 4.0. Thanks IoT, data collection, analysis, processing stages are carried out instantly ...

Highly fermentable diets are rapidly converted to organic acids [i.e., short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) and lactic acid] within the rumen. The resulting release of protons can constitute a challenge to the ruminal ecosystem and animal health. Health disturbances, resulting from acidogenic diets, are classified as subacute and acute acidosis based on the degree of ruminal pH depression. Although i...

Four rumen fistulated swamp buffaloes were randomly assigned according to a 4×4 Latin square design to investigate the effects of Eucalyptus (E. Camaldulensis) leaf meal (ELM) supplementation as a rumen enhancer on feed intake and rumen fermentation characteristics. The dietary treatments were as follows: T1 = 0 g ELM/hd/d; T2 = 40 g ELM/hd/d; T3 = 80 g ELM/hd/d; T4 = 120 g ELM/hd/d, respective...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two feed supplements on rumen bacterial communities of heifers fed a high grain diet. Six Holstein-Friesian heifers received one of the following dietary treatments according to a Latin square design: no supplement (control, C), 60 g/day of fumarate-malate (organic acid, O) and 100 g/day of polyphenol-essential oil (P). Rumen fl...

Rumen-fistulated lactating cows were individually fed on hay or silage and intakes were monitored during 3 h treatment periods and for 2 h after. Each experiment used five, six or seven animals and the treatments were applied in a Latin Square design. Sodium acetate infusions of 1.8-11.0 mol in 4.5 litres water caused a dose-related depression in hay intake, the extent being 82 g dry matter (DM...
