TLDR
The condensed tannin intake in sheep between 7.15 and 10.8 g/kg dry matter intake via selected tann iniferous tropical tree leaves did not influence dry matter and digestibility, and about 20–26% reduction in sheep intake was found.About:

TL;DR: It is clear that plant secondary metabolites can be a rational approach to modulate the rumen microbiome and modify its function, some species of rumen microbes improve protein and fiber degradation and reduce feed energy loss as methane in ruminants fed tropical plant species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential of Molecular Weight and Structure of Tannins to Reduce Methane Emissions from Ruminants: A Review.
TL;DR: In vivo studies are needed to determine the effects of tannins, characterized by MW and structural composition, on reducing CH4 emissions and improving animal performance in ruminants.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of plant natural products or secondary metabolites (PNP) such as tannins, saponins, and essential oils on ruminal microflora and their potentials to mitigate biogases during livestock production.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors identified three strategies to decrease product-based methane emissions while increasing animal productivity and five strategies to reduce absolute methane emissions without reducing animal productivity, which can meet the 1.5°C target by 2030 but not 2050, because mitigation effects are offset by projected increases in methane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meta-analysis quantifying the potential of dietary additives and rumen modifiers for methane mitigation in ruminant production systems.
TL;DR: In this paper, a meta-analysis was conducted based on 108 refereed papers from recent animal studies (2000-2020) to report effects on CH4 production, CH4 yield and CH4 emission intensity from 8 dietary interventions (oils, microalgae, nitrate, ionophores, protozoal control, phytochemicals, essential oils and 3-nitrooxypropanol).

Methods for dietary fiber, neutral detergent fiber, and nonstarch polysaccharides in relation to animal nutrition.
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.

Microdiffusion Analysis and Volumetric Error
TL;DR: In this article, Microdiffusion analysis and volumetric error was used to detect micro-diffusion errors in the context of micro-scale analysis of the volumetry data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial properties of tannins
TL;DR: Tannin toxicity for fungi, bacteria and yeasts is reviewed and compared to toxicity of related lower molecular weight phenols and the dependence of toxicity on tannin structure is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unravelling the conundrum of tannins in animal nutrition and health
TL;DR: The elucidation of tannin structure–activity relationships presents exciting opportunities for future feeding strategies that will benefit ruminants and the environment within the contexts of extensive, semi-intensive and some intensive agricultural systems.

Quantification of Tannins in Tree and Shrub Foliage: A Laboratory Manual
TL;DR: The first phase of the Co-Ordinated Research Project on Tannin Bioassays as mentioned in this paper was held in the early 1990s, and the results of the first phase were presented in the manual.
