The normal flora of the bovine rumen. Bacteriological evaluation of rumen contents by the examination of cud
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 March 2009
Extract
Quantitative and qualitative bacteriological comparisons were made between complementary samples of cud and rumen contents using five fistulated cows receiving various diets; no marked differences were observed between samples taken from the same animal at the same time. This, with the method of collecting cud described, simplifies bacteriological evaluation of the rumen contents of intactanimals.
