Correlation between condensed tannin and fiber contents of irradiated pomegranate seed
Pomegranate seeds were exposed to electron and gamma irradiations at doses of 5, 10, 15 and 20 kGy to study the relationships between their condensed tannin, NDF, ADF contents, in vitro rumen methane production and protozoa population. Data were analyzed by using the GLM procedure. Orthogon...

| description | Pomegranate seeds were exposed to electron and gamma irradiations at doses of
5, 10, 15 and 20 kGy to study the relationships between their condensed
tannin, NDF, ADF contents, in vitro rumen methane production and protozoa
population. Data were analyzed by using the GLM procedure. Orthogonal
contrast showed that gamma irradiation significantly increased the NDF
content of pomegranate seed as compared to control (P<0.05), however electron
beam irradiation did not significantly affect NDF%. The condensed tannin
content of the pomegranate seed was significantly decreased by gamma and
electron beam irradiation compared to control (P<0.05). Our results showed
that there was a negative correlation between the methane production and NDF
content of the gamma irradiated pomegranate seed. This means that the methane
production of the gamma irradiated pomegranate seed decreased with increasing
NDF%. Therefore, it seems that, in addition to tannin, the reduction of the
methane production was affected by the cell wall content. Generally, the cell
wall content may be more important than tannins in limiting microbial and in
vitro fermentation. |
