Ruminal degradation of cell wall associated nitrogenous compounds of several¹⁵N-labelled feeds

Abstract

Results confirm that NDF and ADF procedures failed to remove large fractions of particle adherent microorganisms, under-evaluating the ED of NDIN and ADIN. Degradation of NDIN represented a significant part of the degraded N, whereas ADIN contribution was only negligible in WG. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry.
