El conejo está considerado como una especie monogástrica, al igual que los cerdos, las aves y los carnívoros, sin embargo, su fisiología digestiva es mixta, encontrándose más cerca de los rumiantes o de los caballos que ...

Host-rumen-microbe interactions are essential components of many physiological processes, and therefore can affect ruminant health. Classical knowledge of rumen microbiology is based on culture-dependent methodologies, which ...

This study was carried out to establish Saccharomyces cerevisiae, xylanase, and their mixture as environmentally friendly feed additives that can reduce enteric biogas production. Rumen liquor was obtained from two rumen ...

In pasture-based dairy systems, there is a close relationship between milk production and dry matter intake (DMI), hence the importance of measuring these variables, although obtaining this information implies high labour ...

The aim of this work is to identify the chemical constituents and the bioactivity of essential oil (EO), acetone extract (ACE) and n-hexane extract (HexE) of S. terebinthifolius ripened fruits using GC-MS. Total ...

The potential to use abattoir’s rumen fluid as a source to produce a carbohydrate degrading enzymatic feed additive by using spray-drying technique was studied. Rumen contents were taken from the slaughterhouse and ...

The current research was conducted to evaluate the influence of newly developed probiotic (Microzist) and commercial probiotic (Primalac) on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and immunity of broiler chickens. A ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Natuzyme enzyme mixture (0, 3, and 6 g/kg dry matter [DM]) on microbial digestion as well as fermentation of wheat straw and alfalfa hay in Arabian horse. Four female ...

The desideratum aim of the present context was to isolate a promising antagonist probiotic bacterium from fermented food item as biocontrol agent against uropathogens. Among diversified isolates evaluated for antagonistic trait, ...

In livestock production, ruminal fermentation leads to significant loss of digestible feed energy and increase methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) productions. These gases are the major sources of greenhouse gases ...
