An in vitro experiment was performed to compare the forage quality of foliage of Calliandra (Calliandra calothyrsus Meissner var. Patulul) cultivated on either low or medium-fertility soils in Colombia and Kenya, respectively. A grass-alone diet, with and without urea supplementation, and five le...

We conducted an experiment to determine the effects of concentration and astringency of extractable and bound condensed tannins (CT) in tropical legumes on intake, digestibility, and nitrogen (N) utilization by sheep. The test legumes (Desmodium ovalifolium and Flemingia macrophylla) had similar ...

A trial with sheep (housed in metabolic cages, and fitted with ruminal and duodenal cannulas) fed sun-dried forage of two Calliandra calothyrsus provenances (San Ramon —CIAT 22310 and Patulul CIAT— 22316) harvested in sites with contrasting soil fertility was carried out to further define the bio...

Reduction of tannin level in a tropical legume (Desmodium ovalifolium) with polyethylene glycol (PEG): Effects on intake and N balance digestion and absorption by sheep
Extensive comparisons of the effects of tropical shrub legumes rich in condensed tannins (CT) require well-conserved material. It is, however, unclear if the application of even gentle methods like freeze drying (lyophilization) affects the results in comparison to fresh material. Therefore, an e...
