Energy contributions of volatile fatty acids from the gastrointestinal tract in various species
TL;DR: The VFA, also known as short-chain fatty acids, are produced in the gastrointestinal tract by microbial fermentation of carbohydrates and endogenous substrates, such as mucus and may indirectly influence cholesterol synthesis and even help regulate insulin or glucagon secretion.

Biochemistry of Cheese Ripening
TL;DR: A review of the biochemical changes that occur in rennet-coagulated cheeses during ripening can be found in this article, with a focus on secondary reactions such as the production of volatile flavour compounds.
Biological effects of propionic acid in humans; metabolism, potential applications and underlying mechanisms
TL;DR: Increased production of PA by the microbiota might be considered beneficial in the context of prevention of obesity and diabetes type 2, and PA emerges as a major mediator in the link between nutrition, gut microbiota and physiology.

Metatranscriptomic Profiling Reveals Linkages between the Active Rumen Microbiome and Feed Efficiency in Beef Cattle.
Fuyong Li,Le Luo Guan +1 more
TL;DR: The findings that the active rumen microbiome may contribute to variations in feed efficiency of beef cattle highlight the possibility of enhancing nutrient utilization and improve cattle feed efficiency through modification of rumen microbial functions.

Quantitation of α-linked Glucose Polymers Passing to the Small Intestine in Cattle
TL;DR: If all the glucose passing to the duodenum of re-entrant cannulated steers during 275g feed intake were absorbed, it would contribute only 9% of the total glucose metabolized by these animals.

The flow of digesta, dry matter and starch to the duodenum in sheep given rations containing straw of varying particle size.
F. Thompson,G. E. Lamming +1 more
TL;DR: There was no consistent effect of altering the particle size of the roughage component of the diet on total daily flow of digesta, or in the dry-matter content of the digesta entering the duodenum, in sheep using shccp fitted with re-entrant cannulas.

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.

Effects upon glucose metabolism of feeding a low- or high-roughage diet at two levels of intake to sheep.
Essi Evans,J. G. Buchanan-Smith +1 more
TL;DR: It was concluded that substitution of roughage by concentrate in a ruminant's diet may increase the rate of glucose entry during a short time period after eating, and increasing the level of intake caused a greater pool size and space and a shorter half-life of glucose.
