Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon widespread in the environment and closely associated to tobacco use, which is an important risk factor for highly incident stomach cancer. Menthol, a monoterpene ...

This study describes the diversity and concentration of the protozoal population from the forestomach of llamas in Argentina at three altitudinal locations. Protozoal diversity was studied in samples from eight llamas from ...

Background: Forestomach fermentation in Australian marsupials such as wallabies and kangaroos, though analogous to rumen fermentation, results in lower methane emissions. Insights into hydrogenotrophy in these systems could ...

The interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) have been reported to regulate gastrointestinal motility. We investigated the distribution and the morphological and morphometric characteristics of the immunohistochemical reaction ...

The high fibrolytic activity and large biomass of strictly-anaerobic bacteria that inhabit the rumen makes them primarily responsible for the degradation of the forage consumed by ruminants. Llamas feed mainly on low quality ...

Volatile fatty acids (VFA) absorption and metabolic capacity of rumen and omasum were compared, in vitro. Fragments of rumen wall and omasum laminae were taken from eight adult crossbred bovines. An isolated fragment of ...
