Estimation of indigestible neutral detergent fiber in forages from cell wall components
… are measured as neutral detergent fibre (NDF). The NDF is either slowly digestible or indigestible (iNDF). Even if indigestible iNDF is unavailable to microbes, it is a critical component affecting the nutritional value of feeds. Organic matter digestibility is influenced by iNDF, …

Estimation of the proportions of grass and legume in extrusa of esophageallly-fistulated animals
… concentrations of neutral detergent fiber (NDF), Ca and lignin in grasses and legumes. In experiment 1, NDF, Ca and lignin concentrations were measured in mixtures of six combinations of red clover-orchardgrass and alfalfa-tall fescue (100:0; 80:20; 60:40; 40:60; 20:80; 0:100). The R² values …

COMPARING VARIOUS FIBER SOURCES THROUGH MEASURING RUMINATION IN FINISHING BEEF CATTLE
… because dietary neutral detergent fiber (NDF) was similar across treatment diets. Steers consumed a steam-flaked corn-based diet containing corn stalks (CS), cotton burrs (CB), or wheat silage (WS) as the roughage source included at 7% dietary dry matter basis (DMB). Diets were formulated …
