PS4-28. Effects of Blanching Process and Supplementation Level of Undaria Pinnatifida Sporophyll on Nutrient Digestibility, Rumen Fermentation Characteristic, Methane Emission, and Rumen Microbiota In Vitro.
With increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, seaweeds have been extensively studied for their potential to mitigate GHG emissions in the rumen. Undaria pinnatifida (UP) is a brown alga widely consumed in Asia, whereas its sporophyll (UPS) is mostly wasted. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of blanching proc...
