Effect of long-term intra-ruminal infusion of the glucosinolate metabolite allyl cyanide on the voluntary food intake and metabolism of lambs
1992-01-01
Abstract excerpt
The possible role of allyl cyanide (ACN), the nitrile breakdown product of prop-2-enyl glucosinolate, in reducing the voluntary food intake (VFI) of a dried grass pellet diet in sheep was examined in a ruminal infusion experiment. Voluntary food intake of Scottish Blackface wether lambs, infused intraruminally with allyl cyanide (0 mmol day-1, C;4.8 mmol day-1, L; 9.6 mmol day-1, H) for 9 weeks was significantly d...
