• Influence of different dietary forages on the fatty acid composition of rumen digesta as well as ruminant meat and milk (2008, background): “Further, higher CLA c9t11 flows and ruminal proportions were described, suggesting less extensive rumen biohydrogenation for red clover versus ryegrass forages, except for Lee et al. (2006) where very low duodenal CLA c9t11 flows were reported, perhaps questioning the reliability of data for this FA”
• Mitigation of ruminant methane production: current strategies, constraints and future options (2008, background): “Using higher doses of tea saponin (8 mg), Hu et al. (2005) noted a 79% decrease in protozoan counts and 26% decline in in vitro methane release.”
• Effect of octadeca carbon fatty acids on microbial fermentation, methanogenesis and microbial flora in vitro (2008, methodology): “Fermentation parameters such as pH, ammonia N, VFA and methane were determined using methods described by Hu et al. (2005).”
• In vitro screening of various tropical foliages, seeds, fruits and medicinal plants for low methane and high ammonia generating potentials in the rumen (2008, background): “The described anti-protozoal activity of some of these plants is also favorable in this sense as it may improve efficiency of microbial protein synthesis due to suppression of the bacteriolytic activity of ruminal protozoa (Wallace, 2004; Hu et al., 2005).”
• Potential of phytofactors to mitigate rumen ammonia and methane production. (2010, result): “Limitation on methanogenesis without a decrease in the amount of methanogens was also observed by other researchers that used saponins from tea seeds (Hu et al., 2005; Mao et al., 2010).”
• Effects of addition of tea saponins and soybean oil on methane production, fermentation and microbial population in the rumen of growing lambs (2010, methodology): “All lambs had similar diurnal pattern of were fed, and then decreased slowly until the next feeding. butyratewere not significantly changedwhen lambswere fed the diet containing TS, confirming the in vitro result that TS had minor effect on the pattern of rumen fermentation (Hu et al., 2005).”
