NDF degradability (k=4%), ruminant [Cow]

NDF degradability, ruminant. The effective degradability is estimated from the in sacco measurement of the disappearance of a constituant (nitrogen, dry matter) : dt = a + b*(1-exp(-c*t)) ; D = a + ((b*c)/(k+c)). dt = degradability at time t ; D = effective degradability ; a:fraction immediately degradable; b:fraction potentially degradable ; c:degradation rate of particles ; k: hourly disappearance rate of particles. Degradability calculated with k=4% /h.
