ABSTRACT
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of supplementation
of Delonix regia (DR) seed meal containing tannins and saponins on gas
kinetics, ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N) content, pH, methane (CH4) production
and dry matter (DM) digestibility using an in vitro gas production technique. The
experimental design was completely randomized, and the dietary treatments
included DR seed meal supplementation at levels of 0, 3.3, 5.0, 6.7, 8.3, 10,
11.7, 13.3, 15.0 and 16.7 mg DM added to 0.5 g of roughage and concentrate
(70:30) mixture. The gas production was measured at several time points:
0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h by a pressure transducer. The
parameters of gas kinetics and cumulative gas production were not altered
(P > 0.05), except for gas production rate constant for the insoluble fraction
which was the highest at 11.7 mg DR seed meal inclusion. CH4 production and
total protozoa counts linearly decreased with increasing DR seed meal levels
(P < 0.05). DR seed meal addition caused quadratic increase of in vitro DM
digestibility with the highest value at 11.7 mg DR seed meal inclusion. No
significant difference in volatile fatty acid profile (P > 0.05) was stated between
treatments except for propionic acid. In conclusion, supplementation of DR seed
meal resulted in improved in vitro gas kinetics and DM digestibility up to 11.7 mg
level, while CH4 production was reduced linearly. The further in vivo studies are
necessary to examine practical of DR seed meal usage in animal production.
