Effect of active and heat-killed Clostridium butyricum on in vitro gas production, ruminal fermentation parameters, and microbiota at varying media pH levels
Increasing media pH promotes rumen fermentation and alter bacterial community. Although both ACB and ICB have the potential to stimulate rumen fermentation in a dose-dependent manner, their effects change depending on media pH levels. Furthermore, both ACB and ICB rarely altered the rumen bacterial community.
