“…As expected, ruminal NH 3 -N linearly increased when dietary CP levels increased and this has been previously reported by Chanthakhoun et al [36] and Chen et al [37], because ruminal NH 3 -N is an end product of protein degradation it was expected that increased dietary CP levels would increase ruminal NH 3 -N concentration. Ruminal NH 3 -N concentration of 2.4 mg/100 mL have been reported as the minimum concentration for adequate microbial growth [38] [39], which is within the levels reported in the present study.…”

“…The degradation products of feed protein, including peptides, amino acids, ammonia N, isobutyrate and isovalerate, were essential for ruminal microbial growth (Granzin & Dryden, ). Therefore, ruminal abundance of total bacteria, R. albus and F. succinogenes increased with increasing dietary CP level (Chanthakhoun et al, ; Wang et al, ). Folic acid is also required by some strains of ruminal microbes.…”

“…The increased total PD excretion indicated that microbial protein synthesis was improved with increasing dietary CP level or MB supplementation. Similarly, some studies found that total PD excretion significantly increased with increasing dietary CP content (Broderick, 2003;Chanthakhoun et al, 2012).…”

“…Chanthakhoun et al. () reported that populations of total bacteria, R. albus and F. succinogenes increased with increasing dietary CP level in buffaloes. Similarly, dietary BCVFA supplementation provided essential nutrient for ruminal cellulolytic bacteria and promoted microbial growth (Cummins & Papas, ; Flachowsky et al., ).…”
