Fecal Kinetics and Digestibilities of Hays and Supplements Estimated by Marker Methods in the Horse
A marker model of fecal kinetics using chromic oxide (Cr) or ytterbium chloride (Yb) is being developed for grazing horses. The model consists of removal of feces at a constant rate from a single compartment, the prefecal mass. It was tested in experiments on stall-fed horses in the context of dig...
