• Apparent digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, protein and energy of native Peruvian feedstuffs in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) 

      Ortiz Chura, Abimael; Pari Puma, Ruth Milagro; Rodríguez Huanca, Francisco Halley; Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza; Araníbar Araníbar, Marcelino Jorge (BioMed Central, 2018)
      Trout production is a growing activity in recent years but requires new alternative sources of feed to be sustainable over time. The objective of this research was to determine the apparent digestibility coefficient (ADC) ...
    • Changes in hematological, biochemical, and blood gases prameters in response to progressive inclusion of nitrate in the diet of Holstein calves 

      Ortiz Chura, Abimael; Marcoppido, Gisela Ariana; Gere, José; Depetris, Gustavo; Stefañuk Bahamonde, Francisco José; Trangoni, Marcos David; Cravero, Silvio Lorenzo Pedro; Faverin, Claudia; Cataldi, Angel Adrian; Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza (Veterinary World Publisher, 2021-01)
      Background and Aim: Nitrate (NO3-) reduces enteric methane emissions and could be a source of non-protein nitrogen in ruminant feeds. Nonetheless, it has a potential toxic effect that could compromise animal health and ...
    • Dynamics of the ruminal microbial ecosystem, and inhibition of methanogenesis and propiogenesis in response to nitrate feeding to Holstein calves 

      Ortiz Chura, Abimael; Gere, José; Marcoppido, Gisela Ariana; Depetris, Gustavo; Cravero, Silvio Lorenzo Pedro; Faverin, Claudia; Pinares-Patiño, Cesar; Cataldi, Angel Adrian; Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza (Elsevier, 2021-12)
      It is known that nitrate inhibits ruminal methanogenesis, mainly through competition with hydrogenotrophic methanogens for available hydrogen (H2) and also through toxic effects on the methanogens. However, there is limited ...
    • La emisión de metano entérico en sistemas de producción ganadera 

      Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza; Gere, Jose Ignacio; Ortiz Chura, Abimael; Cravero, Silvio Lorenzo Pedro; Nieto, Maria Isabel (Asociación Peruana de Producción Animal, 2018-12)
      La ganadería mundial es una de las principales fuentes de las emisiones antropogénicas de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI), ya que representa cerca del 18% a nivel global y con estimaciones de seguir creciendo en las ...
    • Llama and sheep ruminal fluid digestive capacity by in vitro gas production technique 

      Ortiz Chura, Abimael; Wawrzkiewicz, Marisa; Cravero, Silvio Lorenzo Pedro; Fernández Pepi, María Gabriela; Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza; Jaurena, Gustavo (Wiley, 2022-03)
      BACKGROUND: The in vitro gas production technique has been used to evaluate forage fermentation kinetics. However, individual and animal species variation can change fermentation patterns due to differences in ruminal ...
    • Ruminal effects of excessive dietary sulphur in feedlot cattle 

      Castro, Damian Jesus Nahuel; Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza; Ortiz Chura, Abimael; Depetris, Gustavo; Irazoqui, Jose Matias; Amadio, Ariel; Cravero, Silvio Lorenzo Pedro; Canton, German Jose (Wiley, 2021-10-27)
      Sulphur (S) dietary excess can limit productive performance and increase polioencephalomalacia (PEM) incidence in feedlot cattle (FC). Sulphur excess ingested is transformed to hydrogen sulphide (H2S) by sulfo-reducing ...
