Abstract
Aim:
The study was
conducted to evaluate the levels of exogenous fibrolytic enzymes (EFE)
on in vitro digestibilities of dry matter (DM) and organic
matter (OM), total gas production (TGP), metabolizable energy (ME)
content, and microbial biomass production (MBP).
Materials and
Methods:
The total mixed
ration (TMR) was prepared using 30% each of sorghum hay and
groundnut straw and 40% compound concentrate mixture to meet
nutritional requirement of cow (500 kg) producing 12 kg fat
corrected milk. The EFE was incorporated at 0, 40, 60, 80, 100,
120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300, 320, 340, 360,
380, and 400 mg/kg TMR. The TMR substrates with different levels
of EFE were in vitro incubated to ascertain their effect on
digestibility, gas production, and nutritive values.
Results:
The
significantly (p<0.05) higher and optimum in vitro
digestibilities of DM (63.03%) and OM (63.62%) as well as TGP
(72.35 ml/500 mg TMR) were observed at supplementation of 240 mg
EFE/kg TMR, while ME (7.16 MJ/kg DM) and MBP (97.63 mg/500 mg TMR)
were also better.
Conclusion:
The
incorporation of EFE at 240 mg/kg TMR resulted significantly
(p<0.05) higher and optimum in vitro digestibilities of DM
and OM. The TGP, ME, and MBP were also better. The levels of EFE
240 mg/kg TMR were found suitable for further in vivo study
in crossbred cows.
Keywords:
