“…Ozturk et al (2010) investigated the effects of different concentrations of an ethanolic propolis extract on microbial fermentation in vitro and found that the concentration of NH 3 -N in the rumen fluid was reduced to 24% and 39% of the control value with the addition of low and high concentrations of the propolis extract, respectively. Similarly, Oeztuerk et al (2010) investigated the effects of nisin and propolis on in vitro fermentation of a 60:40 forageto-concentrate diet and observed that both substances decreased NH 3 production. Likewise, Aguiar et al (2013) observed that propolis extracts B1 and C1 displayed strong antimicrobial activity against hyper-ammonia-producing rumen bacteria; this may have contributed to the reduction of NH 3 production in the rumen.…”

-Four rumen-cannulated primiparous lactating cows were studied in a 4 × 4 Latin square design experiment to evaluate the effects of propolis-based products (PBP) with different concentrations of propolis and alcohol levels on total digestibility, (TD), ruminal digestibility (RD), intestinal digestibility (ID), pH, ruminal ammonia-nitrogen production (NH 3 -N), rumen microbial synthesis, and blood parameters. The feed consisted of 591.9 g/kg corn silage and 408.1 g/kg concentrate (dry matter [DM] basis), and treatments differed with regard to the inclusion (via ruminal cannula) or exclusion of PBP as follows: control (without the PBP), PBP B1 (3.81 mg of phenolic compounds/kg of ingested DM), PBP C1 (3.27 mg of phenolic compounds/kg of ingested DM), and PBP C3 (1.93 mg of phenolic compounds/kg of ingested DM). Inclusion of PBP reduced the RD of dietary crude protein (CP). Treatment PBP C1 reduced ruminal NH 3 -N production, while PBP B1 increased the ID of CP relative to that in the control. These findings indicate that propolis had a positive effect on rumen nitrogen metabolism. Rumen pH, efficiency of microbial protein synthesis, and blood parameters were not affected by addition of PBP, but there were significant effects on the other parameters when the treatments containing propolis were contrasted.

“…Mitigation of ruminant methane (CH 4 ) emissions helps protect the environment as enteric CH 4 emissions account for approximately 17% of the total global anthropogenic CH 4 production [ 1 ]. Many nutritional CH 4 mitigation approaches such as feed supplemented with essential oils [ 2 ], nisin [ 3 ] and condensed tannins [ 4 ] have been reported, but they are unlikely to be accepted at the farm level because the effects are often temporary as rumen microbiota can adapt to changes in the rumen ecosystem created by the mitigating agents. In addition, some CH 4 mitigating agents also inhibit growth of useful rumen microorganisms such as peptidase producing and cellulolytic bacteria [ 5 – 7 ] leading to lower fiber digestion in the rumen.…”

Twenty male Saanen goats were randomly assigned to four levels of lovastatin supplementation and used to determine the optimal dosage and sustainability of naturally produced lovastatin from fermentation of palm kernel cake (PKC) with Aspergillus terreus on enteric methane (CH4) mitigation. The effects on ruminal microbiota, rumen fermentation, feed digestibility and health of animal were determined over three measuring periods (4-, 8- and 12-weeks) and the accumulation of lovastatin in tissues was determined at the end of the experiment. The diets contained 50% rice straw, 22.8% concentrates and 27.2% of various proportions of untreated or treated PKC to achieve the target daily intake level of 0 (Control), 2, 4 or 6 mg lovastatin/kg body weight (BW). Enteric CH4 emissions per dry matter intake (DMI), decreased significantly (P<0.05) and equivalent to 11% and 20.4%, respectively, for the 2 and 4 mg/kg BW groups as compared to the Control. No further decrease in CH4 emission thereafter with higher lovastatin supplementation. Lovastatin had no effect on feed digestibility and minor effect on rumen microbiota, and specifically did not reduce the populations of total methanogens and Methanobacteriales (responsible for CH4 production). Similarly, lovastatin had little effect on rumen fermentation characteristics except that the proportion of propionate increased, which led to a decreasing trend (P<0.08) in acetic: propionate ratio with increasing dosage of lovastatin. This suggests a shift in rumen fermentation pathway to favor propionate production which serves as H+ sink, partly explaining the observed CH4 reduction. No adverse physiological effects were noted in the animals except that treated PKC (containing lovastatin) was less palatable at the highest inclusion level. Lovastatin residues were detected in tissues of goats fed 6 mg lovastatin/kg BW at between 0.01 to 0.03 μg/g, which are very low.

“…Selem (2012) stated that propolis as a natural feed additive can be used to manipulate rumen fermentation towards less methane (CH4) and that it may affect the productive performance of the animal. Part of the increase in digestibility may be due to the fact that propolis acts as a useful additive for reducing rumen ammonia production (Table 8) and for improving nitrogen utilization in ruminants by converting it into microbial protein (Oeztuerk et al, 2010). Also, propolis consists of flavonoids, enzymes, vitamins and amino acids.…”

“…Furthermore, Mathivanan et al (2013) statement that animal nutritional supplementation with Propolis can increase growth performance and digestion performance. Ozturk et al (2010) and Oeztuerk et al (2010) they suggested that propolis may be a useful additive for reducing rumen ammonia production and for improving nitrogen utilization in ruminants. Selem (2012) stated that Propolis as a natural dietary additive can be used to manipulate rumen fermentation towards less methanogenic and may affect the reproductive and productive performance of the animal.…”

Thirty, 3-4 year of age, female Abu-duleik sheep, local breed, in late pregnancy period were chosen to study the effect of feeding two levels from propolis(P)during late pregnancy and postpartum period on nutritional and productive performance. Animals were divided into three equal groups(10 ewes in each).The first group was fed on concentrate feed mixture(CFM)without propolis (P0) as a control ration, while, the second(P1)and third(P2)groups received the control ration supplemented with propolis at the levels of 100 and 200 mg /kg DM, respectively.All animals were fed CFM at 2.5% of live body weight(LBW)and allowed to graze on Panicum turgidum as a basal range plant for 8 hours daily. The results could be summarized as follows:Propolis treatments led to significant increases in all nutrients digestibility.Propolis improved ruminal condition represented by a decrease(P<0.05)in pH, ammonia-N and volatile fatty acids concentrations. Propolis treatments showed lower(P<0.05)total bacteria count(X 10 10 /ml),especially ruminal gram positive bacteria, compared with control treatment.Also, 4% fat correct milk yield and percentage of constituents (fat, protein and total solid) increase(P<0.05)with increasing the level of propolis. Lambs belonging to the P1 and P2 groups recorded a significant increase in the average daily gain, total gain and weaning weight compared to lambs belonging to the control group. Propolis treatments improved ewe's production index represented by weaning weight index percentage at a rate of22.60 and 33.53%for P1 and P2 ewes compared with control ewes. Generally,propolis additive under arid-area rangelands condition improved nutritional and productive performance of pregnant ewes and their lambs beside improved economic efficiency
