The effectiveness of dried seaweed Eucheuma cottonii on in vitro rumen fermentation and enteric methane production.

Abstract

Resumo As algas desempenham um papel significativo na redução dos gases de efeito estufa (GEE) emitidos pelos ruminantes, em particular o gás metano (CH4) gerado durante a fermentação ruminal do alimento. Euchaema cottonii é uma espécie de alga potencialmente cultivada em países tropicais. Um procedimento de conservação é necessário para uma aplicação futura no programa de redução de CH4. O estudo analisou como três métodos de secagem (secagem solar, secagem em forno e secagem por congelamento) afetaram a capacidade de E.cottonii em reduzir o metano CH4, medida por uma técnica in vitro. A adição de E. cottonii seco até 4% de matéria seca (MS) foi testada usando dietas de palha de arroz misturadas com concentrado na proporção de 70%:30% na base de MS. Foram realizadas medições da produção de gás, degradabilidade e o produto final da fermentação ruminal durante 48 horas de incubação usando um sistema de produção de gás e técnicas da ANKOM Daisy II. No geral, os três produtos secos de E. cottonii foram encontrados para reduzir consideravelmente a produção de CH4, aumentar a degradabilidade de MS e MO, bem como a produção total de VFA (P<0.05). Os três tratamentos não tiveram efeito na concentração de NH3 e na população bacteriana, mas diminuíram a população de protozoários (P<0.01). A redução da projeção de gás CH4 no rúmen foi afetada por todos os três métodos de secagem da mesma forma. Conclui-se que a adição de E.cottonii até 4% de MS é eficaz na redução da produção de CH4 entérico, sem causar efeito negativo na degradabilidade de MS e MO, bem como não reduziu a formação total de VFA e atividades bacterianas. Os três diferentes métodos de secagem têm efeito semelhante na redução da produção de CH4, sendo o método de secagem por congelamento o mais eficaz.

Abstract Seaweed plays a significant role in reducing green-house gasses (GHG) emitted by ruminant animals, in particular methane gas (CH4) generated during rumen fermentation of the feed. Euchaema cottonii is one of potential cultivated seaweed in tropical country. A preservation procedure is necessary for further application in CH4 reduction program. The study looked at how three drying methods (sun drying, oven drying, and freeze drying) affected the E.cottonii ability in reducing CH4 methane as measured by an in vitro technique. The addition of dried E. cottonii up to 4% dry matter (DM) was tested using rice straw diets mixed with concentrate in the ratio of 70%:30% in DM base. Measurements was conducted on gas production, degradability and end product of rumen fermentation during 48-hour incubation using a gas production system and ANKOM Daisy II techniques. Overall, the three dried products of E. cottonii found to considerably lower production of CH4, increased DM and OM degradability as well as total VFA production (P<0.05). The three treatments have no effect on NH3 concentration and the bacterial population, but decreased protozoa population (P<0.01). The lowering of CH4 gas production in the rumen is impacted by all three drying methods in the same way. It is concluded that dried E.cottonii addition up to 4% DM effective in depressing enteric CH4 production, without causing negative effect on DM and OM degradability as well as did not depress total VFA formation and bacterial activities. The three different drying-methods have similar effect on reducing CH4 production, with the most affective is freeze-drying method
