What is common among them?
![Page 3: DBS 402B.11 Presidency University, 2015pralay.weebly.com/uploads/6/1/2/5/61256147/ruminant... · 2019-10-05 · Presidency University, 2015. What is common among them? What if I say,](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022043004/5f8639535cacbc4403521263/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What if I say, this•
They all live on high fiber diet
•
Very little nutritional value
•
More roughage •
But then food is almost indigestible
•
So they developed….

So how does it work?•
Through the process of rumination –
Eating rapidly, regurgitating and masticating their feed. (Chewing their cud)
•
With specialized structures in their stomach–
Ruminants have microorganisms living in them that break down cellulose for them and make those nutrients absorbable.
•
60-75% of ingesta
fermented by microbes before exposed to gastric juices.

Before stomach •
Tongue –
Used more by cattle and goats (also use lips)
•
Teeth–
No upper incisors
–
Used more by sheep (use lips to “sort”
feed)•
Saliva –
Continual production
–
Cattle: 12 gal/d vs
Sheep: 2 gal/d–
No enzymes; High pH
•
Esophagus –
No sphincter valve
•
Opens into reticulum and rumen•
Muscle contractions move in both directions

Ruminant characteristics •
Eructation (belching)–
CO2 and Methane
–
Produced by microbial population in rumen–
Rumen contracts and forces gas out
•
Bloat can result if ruminant doesn’t belch

VFAs•
Acetic Acid (Acetate) –
Most comes from cellulose
–
Important to milk fat in dairy cows•
Propionic
Acid (Propionate)
–
Most comes from starch•
Butyric Acid (Butyrate)–
Derived from Acetic acid
•
Pyruvic
Acid Acetic Acid–
CO2 and CH4 given off
•
Ionophore
Feed additives–
Increases production of propionic
acid
–
Decreases production of acetic acid

Normally •
Propionic
Lactic Acid
–
Normal microbial process–
Lactic acid lower pH
•
Lactic Acid Pyruvate–
Lactic Acid fermenters
required
–
Pyruvate
is converted to glucose in liver–
Conversion of lactic acid restores pH balance
![Page 24: DBS 402B.11 Presidency University, 2015pralay.weebly.com/uploads/6/1/2/5/61256147/ruminant... · 2019-10-05 · Presidency University, 2015. What is common among them?

Then •
Propionic
Lactic Acid
–
Lactic acid lowers pH•
Lactic Acid Pyruvate–
Lactic Acid fermenters
are slow growing
–
Can’t keep up so pH is not restored–
Low pH kills microbes
–
Animal often dies of lactic acidosis•
Causes of Lactic Acidosis–
Quick diet changes to high concentrates
–
Removal from feed–
Restriction of feed intake during stress
–
Voluntary feed aversion•
Palatability
•

Whales•
They also have four chambered stomach and their digestion pattern is somewhat similar to bovine digestion
•
Reminder, whales are carnivores•
Why do you think then they have four chambered stomach?
