“…Table 2 shows that the DM digestibility of the diet with a synchronization index at 0.50 was higher (P<0.05) compared with those of diets with synchronization index at 0.37 and 0.63. The higher synchronization index was expected to have higher nutrient digestibility in gastrointestinal tracts, because of supply from ruminal product of carbohydrate and nitrogen degradations are improved (Yang et al, 2010;Chumpawadee et al, 2006). However, it is not clear why the DM digestibility of the diet with a synchronization index at 0.63 was the lowest (Table 2).…”

“…Sugarcane bagasse is well known as a source of fiber in balancing ruminant diet, and all diets were designed to contain the same amount of sugarcane bagasse (Table 1). Chumpawadee et al (2006) reported that increasing the synchronization index in diet may improve the DM digestibility but the ruminal VFAs concentrations remain unchanged. There are greater fluctuations of VFAs concentrations over feeding times in goat when fed grass or alfalfa hay (Cantalapiedra-Hijar et al, 2009).…”

“…These may be due to that the three experimental rations were balanced in their chemical composition, specially crude protein (Table 1) which the protein contain in animal diets is the main limiting factor that affect blood proteins concentration and as reported in other studies (Chumpawadee et al, 2006;Javaid et al, 2008), blood urea concentration correlated to ruminal ammonia concentration. Thus, the present results clearly indicate that protein metabolism is mostly unaffected by inclusion biologically treated rice straw in ewe-lambs rations as well as the level of dietary protein is satisfactory to cover animal allowances.…”

“…The synchronization degradation rate of energy and protein has been proposed as a method to increase ruminal MPS, improve efficiency of N usage and animal performance, decrease urinary N excretion (Sinclair et al, 1993;Cole et al, 2008) and fermentative carbon losses in CO 2 and CH 4 (Blummel et al, 1999 cyted by Chumpawadee et al, 2006). Synchronous supply of energy and protein to the rumen enhanced the efficiency of microbes in capturing N and use of ATP for microbial growth (Richardson et al, 2003), which implied synchronized feeds increased microbial protein production in the rumen and enhanced rumen fermentation efficiency, and thereby improved feed utilization and animal performance (Chumpawadee et al, 2006).…”
