The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a probiotic on in situ ruminal DM, OM, CP and starch degradability values in some energy and protein sources commonly used in ruminant nutrition. In this study, the in situ degradation kinetics and fractions of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, and starch of 6 different feedstuffs (barley, wheat, corn, sunflower seed meal, cottonseed meal and soybean meal) commonly used in animal nutrition were determined. Three ruminally cannulated Bafra sheep were used in the experiment. The experiment was designed as carryover experimental design with two periods. …
