Comparative isolation of bacteria from inflamed sites to identify inflammation-tailored bacteria
DownloadSpring 2021
Microbial culture collections are fundamental to microbiology research. However, with the advent of next generation sequencing research, the generation and maintenance of comprehensive culture collections has become deprioritized. As such a need exists for the improved isolation of diverse...

Effects of viscosity and fermentability of dietary fibre on nutrient digestibility and digesta characteristics in ileal-cannulated grower pigs
Download2011
Vasanthan, Thavaratnam, Zijlstra, Ruurd T., Metzler-Zebeli, Barbara U., Hooda, Seema
Relative contributions of two functional properties, viscosity and fermentability of dietary fibre, on apparent ileal digestibility (AID), apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD), digesta passage rate, N retention and SCFA concentration have not been established. Thus, eight ileal-cannulated...

The role of functional properties of dietary fiber in the control of nutrient flow and intestinal health in pigs
DownloadFall 2010
Viscosity and fermentability are considered important properties of dietary fiber. Viscosity increases digesta viscosity and reduces digesta passage rate, nutrient digestion and absorption whereas fermentability increases fermentation into short chain fatty acids (SCFA). The objectives were to...
