Urinary Purine Derivatives Excretion as a Method for Estimation of Rumen Microbial Protein Production in Swamp Buffaloes and Zebu Cattle
Prediction equations based on urinary purine derivatives (PD) excretion rate as an index to predict rumen microbial protein production have been developed for European cattle and sheep. However, there is evidence to suggest that those equations may not be applicable directly to tropical swamp buf...
