The rates of production of volatile fatty acids in the rumen. 2. Measurement of production in an artificial rumen and application of the isotope dilution technique to the rumen of a sheep.
F. V. Gray,R. A. Weller,GB Jones +2 more
TL;DR: The rates of production of acetic, propionic, and butyric acids in the normal rumen of a sheep have been measured from the decline in specific activity of these acids inThe rumen after introduction of their sodium salts, labelled with 14C.

The rates of production of volatile fatty acids in the rumen. IV. Individual and total volatile fatty acids
TL;DR: It was possible to determine the production of individual acids by a relatively simple procedure requiring only the infusion of a single 14C-labelled acid and measurement of the concentration of 14C in a composite sample of the acids in the rumen fluid collected throughout the feeding cycle.

Rates of production of volatile fatty acids in the rumen. V. Evaluation of fodders in terms of volatile fatty acid produced in the rumen of the sheep
TL;DR: Volatile fatty acid (VFA) production by two sheep fed at 2-hourly intervals on a constant ration containing equal parts of wheaten hay and lucerne hay, showed no significant difference between the sheep or between day-time and night-time values.

The rates of production of volatile fatty acids in the rumen
TL;DR: The rates of production of acetic, propionic, and butyric acids in the normal rumen of a sheep have been measured from the decline in specific activity of these acids after introduction of their sodium salts, labelled with 14C as mentioned in this paper.

The rates of production of volatile fatty acids in the rumen.
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the mixture of acids produced in the rumen is similar in composition to that present in rumen fluid throughout the feeding cycle, and it was possible to determine the production of individual acids by a relatively simple procedure, requiring only the infusion of a single 14C-labeled acid and measurement of the concentration of 14C in a composite sample of the acids in the ruminant fluid collected throughout a feeding cycle.
