Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect The rumen liquor‐pepsin system digested a greater proportion of wheat and barley straws than the pepsin‐cellulase system.
- Observation Core lignin was not digested by either digestion system.
- Intervention effect Ball milling improved digestibility of the cellulose fraction to a greater extent than that of the hemicellulose fraction.
- Intervention effect Delignification had a greater effect on hemicellulose digestion than on cellulose digestion.
- Observation The rate of removal of the different sugar residues in the hemicellulose fraction differed.
