In vitro fermentation techniques (IVFT) have been widely used to evaluate the nutritive value
of feeds for ruminants and in the last decade to assess the effect of different nutritional …

This review considers microbial inocula used in in vitro systems from the perspective of their
ability to degrade or ferment a particular substrate, rather than the microbial species that it …

Methodology used to measure in vitro gas production is reviewed to determine impacts of
sources of variation on resultant gas production profiles (GPP). Current methods include …

Gas production techniques are used in many laboratories to study fermentation kinetics of
ruminant feeds, and the major source of variation is often the inoculum. Fifteen substrates …

Simple Summary The Ankom DaisyII incubator (ADII; Ankom Technology Corporation
Fairport, NY, USA) has gained acceptance as an alternative to traditional in vitro procedures …

To investigate the relationship between in vitro and in vivo methane (CH 4) production
measured simultaneously using the same rumen-fistulated cows in both experiments, four …

A fully automated in vitro incubation system consisting of 32 incubation bottles (125 ml) each
fitted with a pressure sensor and a solenoid valve was developed to monitor total gas …

Two in vitro gas production apparatuses, glass syringes (GS) and pressure transducers (PT),
used for measurement of gas production (GP), were compared using rumen fluid (RF) and …

Although the living relatives of the Mesozoic flora were once assumed to constitute a
nutritionally poor diet for dinosaur herbivores, in vitro fermentation of their foliage has shown …

The true dry matter (DM) digestibility (TDMd) and metabolizable energy (ME) contents of
feeds are frequently assessed from the amount of digestible neutral detergent fibre (dNDF) …
