Journal ArticleDOI
Rumen Bypass and Protection of Proteins and Amino Acids
TL;DR: A feasible approach to production of animal protein from ruminants would be utilization of nonprotein nitrogen for rumen protein production, maximization of rumen bypass of dietary protein, and supplementation with rumen nondegradable amino acids.

The effect of varying the amount of linseed oil supplementation on rumen metabolism in sheep
O. A. Ikwuegbu,J. D. Sutton +1 more
TL;DR: The effects of three levels of linseed oil (LSO) supplementation of a basal diet on rumen digestion and flow of nutrients to the proximal duodenum of three mature sheep provided with permanent rumen and duodenal re-entrant cannulas were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ammonia: Its Effects on Biological Systems, Metabolic Hormones, and Reproduction
TL;DR: Extensive experiments in eight ureotelic species, including man, show that urinary excretion of orotic acid becomes significantly elevated when the quantity of ammonia presented to the liver exceeds the capacity for normal detoxification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of rumen protein degradability and supplementation frequency on performance and nitrogen use in ruminants consuming low-quality forage: cow performance and efficiency of nitrogen use in wethers.
TL;DR: CP supplements consisting of 20 to 60% UIP can be effectively used by ruminants consuming low-quality forage without adversely affecting N efficiency and animal performance, even when provided as infrequently as once every 6 d.

Ammonia emissions from pig houses in the Netherlands, Denmark and France
TL;DR: In the Netherlands, Denmark and France approximately 50% of the ammonia emissions from pig production is from pig housing and slurry storage as discussed by the authors, which has resulted in a surplus of manure and a serious concern about the effect of ammonia emissions on environmental acidification and the pollution of ground and surface water.
