Potential of a phytobiotic based on Acacia concinna and the red seaweed Palmaria palmata to reduce in vitro ruminal methane production

Impact of tropical red seaweed (Palisada perforata) on in vitro methane mitigation and fermentation profiles: The role of forage-to-concentrate ratios

ABSTRACT Palisada perforata is one of tropical seaweed that is promising as an additive to reduce rumen methane production, but in total mixed rations (TMR) as a basal feed not reported yet. A randomized factorial block design with two factors (3 x 2) and five replications was applied, time to collect rumen fluid from...

PS3-23. Effects of Saponins and Phenolic Compounds in Fenugreek on Ruminal Fermentation and Methane Production In Vitro.

Naturally occurring plant compounds have the potential to modulate nutrient metabolism, improve animal health and enhance productive performance if they possess positive biological activities. Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L; FG), an annual legume forage, contains an array of plant bioactives including saponin...

The diet supplemented with raw and hydrolyzed Microchloropsis gaditana and Arthrospira platensis blend modulates intestinal microbiota and metabolomic profiles in Sparus aurata

The transition toward sustainable aquaculture has prompted the search for alternative feed ingredients that support fish health while reducing dependence on fishmeal. Microalgae such as Microchloropsis gaditana and Arthrospira platensis are rich in bioactive compounds with potential functional benefits. This study eval...

Bioconversion of sea cucumber (Holothuria sp.) by Lactobacillus plantarum: enhancement of bioactive peptides, gamma-aminobutyric acid, and corresponding bioactivities

Evaluating the impact of Acanthophora spicifera and Gracilaria edulis extracts on the enhanced growth of selected microgreens and their bioactive metabolite profiles

Seaweed-derived bio-stimulants are increasingly explored as a sustainable strategy to enhance the nutraceutical quality of functional foods such as microgreens. This study evaluated the effect of foliar-applied Acanthophora spicifera and Gracilaria edulis extracts (0.5% w/v) on the growth and bioactive metabolite profi...

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...
