    • Dietary nitrate metabolism and enteric methane mitigation in sheep consuming a protein-deficient diet 

      Villar, Maria Laura; Hegarty, Roger S.; Van Tol, M.; Godwin, Ian R.; Nolan, John V. (CSIRO Publishing, 2019-09-20)
      It was hypothesised that the inclusion of nitrate(NO3 –) or cysteamine hydrochloride (CSH) in a protein deficient diet (4.8% crude protein; CP) would improve the productivity of sheep while reducing enteric methane (CH4) ...

    • Nitrate and nitrite metabolism in ruminant livestock 

      Villar, Maria Laura (Edición del Autor, 2019)
      Global methane emissions from livestock have continue to rise in last decade due to the increasing ruminant population and demand for livestock products. Supplementing the diet of ruminants with nitrate (NO3) is an effective ...

    • The effects of dietary nitrate on plasma glucose and insulin sensitivity in sheep 

      Villar, Maria Laura; Godwin, Ian R.; Hegarty, Roger S.; Dobos, Robin Christopher; Smith, Katherine A.; Clay, Jonathon W.; Nolan, John V. (Wiley Online Library, 2019-07)
      Nitrate (NO3 ¯) is an effective non‐protein nitrogen source for gut microbes and reduces enteric methane (CH4) production in ruminants. Nitrate is reduced to ammonia by rumen bacteria with nitrite (NO2 ¯) produced as an ...
