FASTING EFFECTS ON IN VITRO FERMENTATION PATTERN OF RABBIT CAECAL CONTENTS

[EN] Caecal contents were collected from six 16h fasted (F) and six non fasted (NF) rabbits, sacrificed between 9 and 1 Oam. They were incubated for 24h/39ºC and net productions of volatile fatty acids (VFA) and methane were determined. In a separate preliminary experiment, caecal contents obtained...

Zusammenfassung:[EN] Caecal contents were collected from six 16h fasted (F) and six non fasted (NF) rabbits, sacrificed between 9 and 1 Oam. They were incubated for 24h/39ºC and net productions of volatile fatty acids (VFA) and methane were determined. In a separate preliminary experiment, caecal contents obtained from a F and a NF rabbit were incubated with starch, cellulose or pectins. In F animals, total VFA concentration was lower (P
