Effects of dietary D-lactate levels on rumen fermentation, microflora and metabolomics of beef cattle

IntroductionExcessive intake of lactate caused by improper use of silage in animal husbandry has adverse effects on rumen fermentation, such as rumen acidosis. The speed of absorption and metabolism of D-lactate in rumen epithelial cells was slower than that of L-lactate, making D-lactate more prone...
