TL;DR: In this paper, a standardization of the method is based on a nutritional concept which defines fiber as insoluble vegetable matter which is indigestible by proteolytic and diastatic enzymes and which cannot be utilized except by microbial fennentation in the digestive tracts of animais.
Abstract: A rapid procedure for determining cellwall constituents of plants consista of the determination of the fiber insoluble in neutral detergent and is applicable to all feedstuffs. The standardization of the method is based on a nutritional concept which defines fiber as insoluble vegetable matter which is indigestible by proteolytic and diastatic enzymes and which cannot be utilized except by microbial fennentation in the digestive tracts of animais.

TL;DR: In addition to NDF, new improved methods for total dietary fiber and nonstarch polysaccharides including pectin and beta-glucans now are available and are also of interest in rumen fermentation.

TL;DR: The Cornell Net Carbohydrate Protein Model (Chalupa et al., 1991) has developed the need for uniform procedures to partition feed nitrogen into A, B, and C fractions (Pichard and Van Soest, 1977) as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, a total, soluble and insoluble non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) and lignin were analysed for low-molecular weight (LMW) sugars by high-performance liquid chromatography, starch, fructan and mixed linked β(1 → 3;1 → 4)-D-glucan by colorimetry, total, insoluble NSP by gas-liquid chromatography and Lignin by gravimetry.

TL;DR: The system is based on NDF as the measure of total chemical fiber in feeds and Adjustments for the effectiveness of NDF in maintaining milk fat production and optimizing ruminal fermentation are based on the particle size and inherent characteristics ofNDF that affect chewing activity, ruminal pH, and milkfat production.

TL;DR: In this paper, analytical methods and fractionation techniques of dietary fibres are evaluated for improving physical and structural properties of hydration, oil holding capacity, viscosity, texture, sensory characteristics, and shelf-life.
