Abstract:The aim of this study was to quantify the liquid-associated bacteria and protozoa of the rumen and to evaluate the potential of in vitro production of gases CH 4 and CO 2 of diets with inclusion of glycerin for sheep. Two diets were formulated with a roughage:concentrate ratio of 20:80, according to the presence or absence of glycerin: G0 -control, without glycerin; and G10 -10% glycerin as part of the concentrate.To quantify the liquid-associated bacteria and protozoa from the rumen and production of CH 4 and… Show more
