  • Lag time
  • Delay prior to apparent digestion
  • Exposing substrate
  • Wetting of feed
  • Attachment of microbes
  • Model
  • Feed Rumen Outflow

  • Kp
  • Potentially Kp
  • Digestible pool Indigestible pool

Digestion
Measure loss of nutrient (protein, dry matter,
NFC, fiber) from Dacron bags containing feed
when incubated for different times in the
rumen. (Pool is material in the bag)

Calculate slope (change per hour) of each
line. Slope kd, has units of of pool
remaining that is lost per hour.

Calculation of Digestion in the Rumen
  • Digestion in the rumen is determined by rate
    of digestion and rate of passage.
  • Portion of each fraction digested in the rumen
  • kd/(kdkp)
  • kd Disappearance (digestion) rate, of pool/hr
  • kp Passage rate from the rumen, of pool/hr
  • Determined by marking feed
  • 2. Amount of each fraction digested in the rumen
  • Feed DMIntake x Fraction feed DM x kd/(kdkp)

10
Calculation of Fractions Leaving the Rumen Rumen
Escape
  • Portion of each fraction leaving the rumen
  • kp/(kdkp)
  • kd Disappearance (digestion) rate, of pool/hr
  • kp Passage rate from the rumen, of pool/hr
  • Determined by marking feed
  • 2. Amount of each fraction leaving the rumen
  • Feed DMIntake x Fraction feed DM x kp/(kdkp)

11
Digestion
Each CHOH fraction within a feed has a
characteristic rate of digestion, Kd. A sugars
- very fast B1 starch and pectin - fast B2
available fiber - slow C unavailable fiber -
not digested

Postruminal Digestion of Starch
Pancreas secretes ?-amylase Starch Maltose
?-limit dextrins Brush boarder secretes Maltase
glucoamylase Not characterized in
ruminants Sucrose isomaltase No activity in
ruminants Starch is digested to glucose in the
intestine
20
Postruminal Digestion of Starch
20 to 40 of starch consumed might
escape digestion in the rumen. The quantity of
starch digested in the intestine increases with
quantity entering, but digested usually
decreases. 45 to 88 of starch entering is
digested. Digestion of starch in small intestine
of ruminants is limited.
21
Postruminal Digestion of Starch
What limits digestion of starch in small
intestine? Infuse glucose or hydrolyzed starch
into abomasum (JAS 801112, 2002) Increase
volume of pancreatic secretion Decrease
concentration of ?-amylase Decrease in units of
?-amylase/hr Seems to be limited by enzymatic
digestion Infuse casein with starch (JAS
803361, 2002) Starch digestion in small
intestine (g/d) increased but of dietary starch
entering not changed Positive relation of starch
disappearance with protein disappearance Additiona
l protein might stimulate amylase secretion
22
Sugar Absorption
  • Facilitated transporters (GLUT 5)
  • Transports fructose down a concentration
    gradient
  • Not significant in ruminants
  • 2. Through intercellular spaces (solvent drag)
  • Glucose must be present in high concentrations
    in
  • intestinal lumen
  • Na-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT 1)
  • High affinity for glucose
  • Major transporter
  • Regulated by glucose in the intestine
  • Increases with glucose infusion
  • Less active in forage fed ruminants

Postruminal Digestion of Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates that are not digested in
small intestine pass into large
intestine Digestion in large intestine is
microbial Sugars are fermented VFA are
absorbed Microbial mass excreted in
feces Feeding systems should be designed to
limit starch digestion in large
intestine Concern expressed about intestinal
acidosis but little is known
25
Postruminal Digestion of Starch
Authors have theorized that digestion of
starch in the small intestine rather than the
rumen would improve energetic efficiency. Energy
balance calculations support the
concept. Difficult to demonstrate
experimentally. Cattle fed high moisture corn or
steam flaked corn are more efficient than those
fed dry corn. Starch in high moisture and steam
flaked grains more digestible in the rumen and
the intestine.
