Rumen fermentation of feed samples incubated in filter bags made from different textiles or dispersed in the medium using an in vitro gas production system
Abstract:The effect of different feed substrates incubated in filter bags [no bag (NB); Ankom® F57, 25 μm pore size (25AN); polyester, 45 μm pore size (45PB); polyester, 67 μm pore size (67PB) ] or dispersed in the medium on gas production, digestion and rumen fermentation was evaluated using an in vitro gas production system. Filter bags reduced (P < 0.01) gas production but increased (P < 0.01) the in vitro dry matter digestibility (45PB and 67PB). Additionally, the use of filter bags with smaller pore size, re… Show more
