Comparison of rumen and abomasal infusions of an exogenous emulsifier on fatty acid digestibility of lactating dairy cows

ABSTRACT: We evaluated the effects of infusing an exogenous emulsifier (polysorbates-C18:1) either into the rumen or abomasum on fatty acid (FA) digestibility and production responses of lactating dairy cows. Nine ruminally cannulated multiparous Holstein cows (170 ± 13.6 d in milk) were assigned to...
