THE INFLUENCE OF THE NUTRITIONAL FACTORS ON SOME BIOPHYSICAL PARAMETERS OF THE RUMINAL FLUID

Abstract

At this hour, a large part of the products obtained through biotechnologies are used in animal fodder, thus contributing to the enhancement of the animal products obtained in economical conditions through optimising the nutrition. In the present study, we wanted to pursue the influence of a high level of cereal in fodder rations, as well as the effect of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yea Sacc1026 strain on some biophysical parameters of the ruminal fluid, such as: pH, density and superficial tension. It has been noted, that Yea Sacc 1026 improves the pH and the superficial tension, which represents more stable ruminal fermentation when using fodder rations with a high level of barley.
