TLDR
Dilution rate and forage-to-concentrate ratio altered the partition of substrate by microbes and underestimated methane output at higher dilution rates and with high forage diets.

Effects of exogenous fibrolytic enzymes on in vitro ruminal fermentation of substrates with different forage:concentrate ratios

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of three fibrolytic enzymes (xylanase from Trichoderma viride (XYL), endoglucanase from Aspergillus niger (ASP) and Trichodorma longibrachiatum (TR)) on the fermentation of three substrates composed of grass hay:

Influence and strategies for enhanced biohydrogen production from food waste

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have shown that the use of nanoparticles in fermentation process along with the application of short and cyclic ultrasound is beneficial to increase the process efficiency and the augmentation in ultrasound-assisted process is due to the physical and chemical effects of ultrasound in the medium through the phenomenon of cavitation.

Development and evaluation of empirical equations to predict feed passage rate in cattle

TL;DR: In this paper, a random coefficients model that used each study effect as a random variable was used to select statistically significant input variables to predict rate of passage for all classes of dairy and beef cattle.

Methane production from commercial dairy rations estimated using an in vitro gas technique

TL;DR: In this article, an in vitro gas production technique was used to measure total gas and methane (CH4) production from commercial total mixed rations (TMR) for lactating dairy cows.

Efficiency of Energy Utilization by Mixed Rumen Bacteria in Continuous Culture

TL;DR: Mixed bacterial cultures derived from the rumen were grown in a remen fluid medium in a chemostat at three dilution rates at four growth-limiting glucose concentrations and a theoretical maximum yield glucose of 89.3 and a maintenance requirement of .26 mmol glucose per g cells per h were calculated.
