The Effects Of Bacterial Inoculants On The Fermentation, Aerobic Stability And Rumen Degradability Characteristics Of Wheat Silages, Eki̇n Sucu, İsmai̇l Fi̇lya
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
This study was carried out to determine the effects of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculants on the fermentation, aerobic stability and in situ rumen degradability characteristics of wheat silages. Wheat was harvested at the early dough stage. Inoculant-1188 (Pioneer^{®}, USA) and Sil-All (Alltech, UK) were used as LAB inoculants. Inoculants were applied to silages at 1.5 x 10^6 cfu/g levels. Wheat material was ensiled in 1.5-l special anaerobic jars, equipped with a lid enabling gas release only. Three jars from each group were sampled for chemical and microbiological analysis 2, 4, 8, 15 and 50 days after ensiling. At the …
Effects Of Homofermentative Lactic Acid Bacterial Inoculants On The Fermentation And Aerobic Stability Characteristics Of Low Dry Matter Corn Silages, Eki̇n Sucu, İsmai̇l Fi̇lya
Effects Of Homofermentative Lactic Acid Bacterial Inoculants On The Fermentation And Aerobic Stability Characteristics Of Low Dry Matter Corn Silages, Eki̇n Sucu, İsmai̇l Fi̇lya
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
This study was carried out to determine the effects of homofermentative lactic acid bacterial inoculants on the fermentation and aerobic stability characteristics of low dry matter corn silages. Corn was harvested at the milk stage. Inoculant-1188 (Pioneer^®, USA; Inoculant A) and Maize-All (Alltech, UK; Inoculant B) were used as homofermentative lactic acid bacterial inoculants. Inoculants were applied to silages 1.5 x 10^6 colony forming units/g levels. Silages with no additive served as controls. After treatment, the chopped corn was ensiled in 1.5-l special anaerobic jars, equipped with a lid that enables gas release only. Three jars from each group were …
