Optimizing Nutrient Utilization and Microbial Protein Synthesis in Ruminants: Strategies for Enhanced Feed Efficiency and Sustainable ProductivityBy Shilpi Islam, Md. Emran Hossain
Abstract: This review investigates strategies to optimize nutrient utilization and microbial protein synthesis in ruminants, aiming to improve feed efficiency and enhance overall livestock productivity sustainably. It focuses on key aspects of feed formulation, including balancing non-structural carbohydrates with protein sources, incorporating bypass proteins, and selecting high-quality forages that improve fiber digestibility. The review examines various feed processing techniques such as steam-flaking, pelleting, and ammonia treatment, which enhance nutrient bioavailability and …

Partitioning Dynamics of Nutrients in Transition Dairy Cows: Metabolic, Hormonal, and Cellular Mechanisms Affecting Lactation and FertilityBy Md. Emran Hossain
Abstract: This review critically examines nutrient partitioning dynamics in dairy cows during the transition phase, a period that profoundly affects lactation and reproductive performance. During this phase, cows experience extensive physiological changes that alter nutrient requirements and utilization, making effective management essential for health and productivity. The review synthesizes current research on mechanisms of nutrient partitioning, with particular attention to energy, protein, and mineral balance, which are crucial for optimizing milk …
