Degradation of L-arginine and N-carbamoyl glutamate and their effect on rumen fermentation in vitro

The objective of this experiment was to determine the degradation of L-arginine (ARG) and N-carbamoyl glutamate (NCG) and to examine their effect on rumen fermentation. Rumen fluids were collected from 3 rumen-fistulated cows and then incubated with ARG or NCG at 1 mmol/L in a glass syringe system a...
