Abstract
Since Megasphaera elsdenii ferments a variable part of dl -lactate to butyrate, measurement of the percentage of dl -lactate fermented to propionate via the acrylate pathway in rumen contents will underestimate the participation of M. elsdenii in the dl -lactate fermentation. The percentage of dl -[2- 13 C]lactate fermented via the acrylate pathway and the percentage of dl -lactate fermented to butyrate can be measured with 13 C-FT (Fourier...
