Effects of Exogenous Oral Infusion of Volatile Fatty Acids on Ileal Microbiome Profiling and Epithelial Health in Goats

Effects of Exogenous Oral Infusion of Volatile Fatty Acids on Ileal Microbiome Profiling and Epithelial Health in Goats

The role of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) in ruminal fermentation is well studied, but their effects on the ileal microbiome and epithelial health remain less explored. In this study, we investigated the impact of the exogenous oral infusion of three VFAs, sodium acetate (NaAc), propionate (NaPr), and...
