Abstract:-Organic matter degradation (OMD) was studied with the techniques of in situ degradation and in vitro gas production (gas test) on 16 straws (TS) treated under different conditions of ammonia concentration (3 and 5%), duration (15, 30, 45 and 75 days) and temperature (15 and 35 o C). Gas production (GP) and OMD were measured at 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 48 h. The results showed that after treatment, compared with the untreated straw (US), the OMD at 48 h, GP at 48 h and organic matter theoretical digestibility (OMT… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
