“…Subsequently, the allantoin : Cr and PD : Cr ratios increased with diets, containing NPN, and were significantly higher in Brahman cattle than in swamp buffaloes. This was in agreement with several workers who reported that Cr excretion in the urine was affected by diet, and therefore, the PD : Cr ratio was also influenced by diets in cattle (Gonda et al 1996;Vo et al 2003;Xing et al 2003) and in buffalo (Liang et al 1999;Vo et al 2003).…”

“…The urinary Cr excretion values of Brahman cattle were higher in the present study (cattle: 1.26-1.34 mmol/BW 0.75 /day) than the range of values (0.72-0.89 mmol/BW 0.75 /day) reported by Makkar (2003) for cattle (Bos indicus). Several researchers have reported that different types of diets affect Cr excretion in cattle (Liang et al 1999;Soejono et al 2003;Xing et al 2003) and in buffalo (Chen et al 1996).…”

Studies on in vivo digestion, rates of passages, metabolism of nitrogen, urinary purine derivative excretion and blood metabolites were carried out in Thai Brahman cattle and Thai swamp buffaloes (16 months old). The animals were fed mixed diets based on pineapple (Ananas comusus) waste silage containing urea-N (NPN) and true protein from a concentrate (TP). The Brahman cattle (310 +/- 15 kg) were heavier than the swamp buffaloes (195 +/- 9.4 kg) and had higher dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) intakes when compared on the basis of their metabolic body weight (BW(0.75)), but these intakes did not differ significantly when the diets of each animal species were compared. The total tract, apparent digestibilities of dry matter (DM) and organic matter (OM) were not significantly different between the animal species when comparing the two types of diets. The NDF digestibility was significantly (P < 0.01) decreased in both animal species when fed the TP diet, but was significantly (P < 0.01) greater in cattle than in swamp buffaloes. The passage rate digesta k(1) (P < 0.01) and the passage rate digesta k(2) (through the caecum and proximal colon) (P < 0.03) were significantly slower, and the total mean retention time (TMRT) (P < 0.01) was significantly longer in swamp buffaloes when compared to Brahman cattle, but the transit time (TT) showed no difference (P = 0.07) between the animal species or the diets. The N intakes were not different in both animal species and diets, but urine-N was greater (P < 0.05) in Brahman cattle than that in swamp buffaloes. Urine N and digestibility of N were significantly (P < 0.04) higher in animals fed the NPN diet than those fed the TP diet. Urinary purine derivatives (PD) and the creatinine (Cr) excretion of swamp buffaloes were significantly (P < 0.01) lower than those in Brahman cattle. Plasma urea-N (BUN) concentration was significantly (P < 0.01) higher in swamp buffaloes than that in Brahman cattle, but plasma glucose and insulin concentrations were significantly (P < 0.01) higher in Brahman cattle than in swamp buffaloes. The concentrations of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) were not significantly (P > 0.05) different in animals fed different diets. The present study demonstrated that Brahman cattle were better in fiber digestibility than swamp buffaloes at utilizing pineapple waste silage with both N sources.
