Smith, A.H.Odenyo, A.A.Osuji, P.O.Wallig, M.A.Mackie, R.I.[Evaluation of palatability and toxicity of Acacia angustssima using a rat bioassay]Evaluation of palatability and toxicity of Acacia angustssima using a rat bioassay

The effect of five multipurpose trees (MPTs), Acacia angustissima, Acacia saligna, Chamae-cytisus palmensis, Leucaena pallida and Sesbania sesban on ciliate protozoa was investigated in rumen cannulated Ethiopian sheeBoth entodiniomorphs and holotrichs were counted. The protozoa counts from S. se...


Odenyo, A.A.Osuji, P.O.Karanfil, O.[Effect of multipurpose tree (MPT) supplements on ruminal ciliate protozoa]Effect of multipurpose tree (MPT) supplements on ruminal ciliate protozoa

Supplementation of basal diets with multipurpose trees (MPTs) increases essential nutrients available to rumen microbes, increases rate of passage of particulate matter by 23-53 percent and of liquid matter by 9-43 percent. Supplementing teff straw with graded levels of cowpea or lablab significa...


Osuji, P.O.Odenyo, A.A.[The role of legume forages as supplements to low quality roughages - ILRI experience]The role of legume forages as supplements to low quality roughages - ILRI experience

Tannins limit the use of fodder trees as feed for ruminants. Removal of the effects of tannins would thus improve the nutritional quality of these trees. This prompted the study to evaluate the effect of rumen or faecal mixed cultures from different animals on tannin degradation. Tannin extracts,...


Ephraim, E.Odenyo, A.A.Ashenafi, M.[Screening for tannin degradation by rumen and faecal samples of wild and domestic animals in Ethiopia]Screening for tannin degradation by rumen and faecal samples of wild and domestic animals in Ethiopia

This work examined the ability of microorganisms from African ungulates to degrade 4-N-acetyl-2,4-diaminobutyric acid (ADAB) found in A. angustissima leaves, as well as purified ADAB and diaminobutyric acid (DABA). These microorganisms were taken from the rumens of bush duiker, eland, impala, Gra...
