Effect of sodium concentration and mucosal pH on apical uptake of acetate and butyrate, and barrier function of the isolated bovine ruminal epithelium

Effect of sodium concentration and mucosal pH on apical uptake of acetate and butyrate, and barrier function of the isolated bovine ruminal epithelium

ABSTRACT: This study was conducted to investigate the role of Na+ on ruminal short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) absorption and barrier function when isolated ruminal epithelium was exposed to high and low pH ex vivo. Nine Holstein steer calves (322 ± 50.9 kg of body weight) consuming 7.05 ± 1.5 kg dry ma...
