Comparison of conventional and Ankom’s filter bag technique (FBT) methodologies for determining neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber.
Abstract
Neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (ADF) concentrations were analyzed by conventional and ANKOM’s filter bag technique methodologies using F57 filter bags for up to six determinations. The feed samples used were: corn grist, wheat middlings, soybean meal, canola meal, tifton 85 hay, rat hay, millet and corn silage. FBT method was effective for NDF and ADF determination for the majority of feed samples. F57 filters reutilization in FBT is recommended in accordance with the tested feed type. For corn silage and canola meal, F57 filters are recommended to be reutilized up to six times, but for other feeds a lower number of reutilizations is recommended. NDF analysis of corn using FBT is not recommended.Downloads
