Flaxseed oil cake was subjected to fermentation with Rhizopus oligosporus (DSM 1964 and ATCC 64063), and the phytate (InsP6) content, myo-inositol phosphate profile and in vitro bioavailability of essential minerals were studied. Flaxseed oil cake had a phytate mass fraction of 13.9 mg/g. A 96-hour fermentation of flaxseed oil cake by R. oligosporus DSM 1964 and R. oligosporus ATCC 64063 decrea...

there are a little information about nutritive value of alfalfa harvested at different cuts and different cutting time (morning and afternoon) in semiarid climate condition of north east of iran. effects of different harvesting cuts and cutting time (6 a.m and 6 p.m) of alfalfa hay at early bud stage on chemical composition and in vitro gas production fermentation profiles were studied in this ...

Solid-state fermentation can be used to produce feeds for ruminants, which can provide an enriched population of yeasts to improve ruminal fermentation. Fermentation of apple bagasse was performed to obtain a yeast-rich product, with the objective of isolating, identifying, and characterizing yeast strains and testing their capability to enhance in vitro ruminal fermentation of fibrous feeds. Y...

the aim of the current study was the screening the activity of 23 medicinal plants for decreasing the in vitro ruminal methane production, as well to and assess sheep ruminal in vitro fermentation parameters. 57.3 mg of each medicinal plants along with 142.7 mg control diet were weighted in 120 ml wheatons in 4 replicates. the samples were incubated using ruminal fluid obtained from 3 castrated...

the effect of grape pomace (vitis vinifera) and in oak leaf (quercus libani) tannins by three runs of in vitro gas production on the organic matter digestibility (omd) and in situ dry matter (dm) and crude protein (cp) disappearance were studied in four sheeps. polyethylene glycol (peg) was used to deactivate the tannins. in vitro gas production was recorded at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 48, 72, 96 and 12...

in a preliminary study carried out in a simple field laboratory in bandar-abbas, southern iran, five isolates of p. falciparum collected from the patients was cultured in rpmi 1640 medium with human serum in the tightly closed screw capped vials without any devised system for adjustment of co2 and o2 mixture. the same isolates were also cultured, simultaneously, in petri-dishes using jensen-tra...

A L T H O U G H in vitro and in vivo rumen studies of cellulose digestion and volatile fatty acid production are numerous (Johnson, 1966), a paucity of information is available on the bioenergetics of tureen digestion. From four in vitro fermentations, in which the heat of combustion of substrate and the products was determined, Marston (1948) concluded that the heat of rumen fermentation of pu...

This study was conducted to evaluate the possibility of alfalfa replacement with fenugreek hay for ruminants, using in vitro gas production parameters and some of rumen fermentation characteristics. For this propose, five different total mixed rations were formulated to meet nutrient requirements of 35 kg growing lambs with gradually replacement of alfalfa in control diet (T1) with different le...
