[0043] Materials and Method

[0044] Using the experimental protocol based on Theodorou MK et al. (1994) Animal Feed Science and Technology, 48(3), p.185-197; Mauricio, RM et al. (1999) Animal Feed Science and Technology 79, 321-330, the design was as follows Two tests with the same experimental protocol to study the effects of different pure flavonoids on the rumen.

[0045] The gas production is measured by a semi-automatic pressure gauge, and the correlation between the pressure level and the gas volume produced is calculated in advance.

[0046] The calf that received the rumen cannula of the mixed quantitative composed mainly of concentrate (90:10) was used as the fluid donor for the rumen; the feed composition is shown in Table 1. The inoculum was collected and filtered through a double layer of surgical gauze, and stored in a thermostat. The flavonoids (Table 2) + 600 mg concentrate (Table 1) and 60 mg barley straw as a substrate were applied in triplicate in a preheated bot...

Abstract

The present invention refers to a method for reducing methane production in ruminants comprising administering to said ruminant a feed composition containing a flavanone glycoside.

Description

Invention field [0001] The present invention relates to a new composition for reducing methane production in ruminants. Background of the invention [0002] Methane, carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide are the main gases with greenhouse effect. [0003] Methane (CH4) is a greenhouse gas whose atmospheric concentration has increased significantly in the last century, and is the largest potential contributor to global warming after carbon dioxide. The increase in tropospheric methane levels is closely related to the global expansion of the population. Therefore, it is believed that about 70% of methane emission is related to human activities. The landfilling of waste and agricultural practices generate methane and release it into the atmosphere, the amount of which has increased due to the growth of the world’s population. [0004] Ruminants (including cattle, buffalo, sheep, and goats) have large foregastrics in which methane-producing fermentation occurs. The rumen digestive tract i...
