Effects of Gamma Irradiation Pretreatment and Exogenous Fibrolytic Enzyme Supplementation on the Ruminal Fermentation and Nutritional Value of <i>Typha latifolia</i> by Khalil Abid

“…Gamma irradiation significantly reduced neutral detergent fiber (NDF) while increasing non-fiber carbohydrates (NFCs), reducing sugars (RS) and antioxidant activity. These modifications enhanced ruminal bacterial proliferation, suppressed ruminal protozoal populations, and improved ruminal fermentation efficiency by increasing gas production, dry matter degradability, and NDF degradability. …”
