Hindgut fermentations in nonavian species

Abstract: A brief comparative discussion of the hindgut of insects, mammals, fishes, and reptiles includes morphology of the hindgut, general appearance, content, materials fermented, fermentation products, microorganisms involved, and value of the hindgut to the host animal. The problems faced by small animals in securing adequate energy from a hindgut fermentation to be of value to the animal are presented. It is suggested that our present analytical methods are not adequate and that new approaches to analyzing the hi… Show more

“…al. ; 51,70 chemo-mechanical model first proposed by Hoar; 5 and ion migration to and reaction at the oxide/metal interface suggested by many 3,5,7,10,12,14,39,51,52,70,91 and recently refined by McCafferty 13,14 are plausible theories considering the experimental results. At the present time McCafferty's stepwise model shows the most significant agreement with the overall experimental data predicting: Cl − is adsorbed and incorporated in the oxide film, moves toward the metal-oxide interface, a lower i pass with Cl − incorporation, oxide thinning prior to E pit , and the formation and rupture of blisters.…”
