The effects of concentrate added to pineapple (Ananas Comosus linn. Mer.) waste silage in differing ratios to form complete diets, on digestion, excretion of urinary purine derivatives and blood metabolites in growing, male, Thai swamp buffaloes

Abstract: Four, male, growing Thai swamp buffaloes (197 +/- 5.3 kg and all 1 year old) were used to evaluate the effects of concentrate added to pineapple waste silage in differing ratios, to form a complete diet, studying in vivo digestion, the rate of passage, microbial protein synthesis and blood metabolites. Animals were fed ad libitum with 4 diets, using four combinations of pineapple waste silage (P) and concentrate (C), in the proportions (on a dry matter basis) of 0.8:0.2 (P80:C20), 0.6:0.4 (P60:C40), 0.4:0.6 (P… Show more

“…This reflected that insulin was not much secreted into the blood for controlling glucose metabolism. Plasma insulin and glucose concentrations in both experiments were similar to the values in buffaloes (Jetana et al 2006(Jetana et al , 2009. This may demonstrate that the rumen fermentation pattern probably was not different when animals were fed with various PRTs and treated leucaena leaves.…”

“…It has been reported that finishing lambs on a diet that contained 180 g apple pomace silage/kg depressed DMI compared to a dried apple pomace diet (Karami et al, 1996). In contrast, Jetana et al (2009) did not report a depressed DMI when a diet containing 200 g pineapple wastes silage/kg was fed to buffaloes. The present study recorded DMI of 1056, 1099, 1188 and 1250 g/d for the UPHS, WPHS, MPHS and the MS diets, respectively.…”

“…To date, the value-added processing and utilization of pineapple wastes could be a potential source of important compounds, such as sucrose, glucose, fructose, cellulose, fiber, bromelain, phenolics, and cellulose nanocrystals [ 22 , 23 ]. Researchers in Thailand have focused on the production of fertilizer, improvements in calcareous soil [ 24 , 25 ], animal feed [ 26 , 27 ], extraction decomposable pots [ 17 ], and plastic reinforcement [ 28 , 29 ]. The bioeconomy industry has recently become one of the Thai government’s target industries and forms part of the five future industries comprising bioplastics [ 30 ].…”
