The effect of pepsin pretreatment of herbage on the prediction of dry matter digestibility from solubility in fungal cellulase solutions
Abstract
Cellulase preparations from different fungi differed markedly in their ability to solubilise herbage and cellulose; T. viride cellulase was the most active, solubilising 70% of cellulose paper in 24 h. The correlation of cellulase solubility with the in vivo and in vitro dry matter digestibility of grasses, and with the in vitro digestibility of legumes was markedly improved by pretreatment of the herbage with acid pepsin. Using the two stage technique, closely similar regression lines were obtained for predicting the in vitro digestibility of both grasses and legumes. Use of the pepsin treatment also enabled a less active Basidiomycete cellulase to be used with results very similar to those obtained with the T. viride enzyme. The technique is proposed as a more rapid, convenient and precise method of predicting digestibility than the usual in vitro procedure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
