This experiment was conducted to study the effects of various amounts of treated sunflower meal (SFM) with extracted tannins from pistachio hulls on in vitro gas production and ruminal fermentation in ruminants. The SFM was treated with pistachio extract concentrate (PEC), which contained 111.40 g kg-1 total phenol and 71.30 g kg-1 total tannin per dry matter of e...

This study aimed to identify chemical composition of Thymus kotschyanus essential oil (TKEO) and to evaluate the effects of different doses of TKEO on in vitro gas production, fermentation parameters, acidosis and protozoal population using a completely randomized design with four replicates. Two diets (D1: 100% forage and D2: 30% forage+70% concentrate) were incubated with buffered rumen fluid...

abstract             the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ajowan essential oils (aeo) on rumen fermentation using in vitro gas production. therefore, different doses of aeo (i.e., 0, 150, 300, 450 or 600 ppm) were added to the syringes of the gas production. a typical diet of growing lambs was used as fermentation substrate.  at the first step, the gas production syringes were in...
