Effects of single-dose ruminal infusions of high or low short-chain fatty acid concentrations and high or low pH on apparent total-tract digestibility and hindgut fermentation of preweaning dairy calves

Effects of single-dose ruminal infusions of high or low short-chain fatty acid concentrations and high or low pH on apparent total-tract digestibility and hindgut fermentation of preweaning dairy calves

ABSTRACT: Although the importance of pH and short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) on rumen development are well-known, their impact on the small and large intestine are unclear. This study investigated how single-dose ruminal infusions with high or low SCFA concentrations and high or low pH affect calves&#...
