The four compartments into which it is divided are the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum or true stomach.
3
In conclusion, forage species modified ruminal N metabolism, the flow of AA at the omasum, and whole-body N partitioning.
4
The most important function of the rumen and omasum is the maceration of the fibrous substances, and the digestion of the cellulose.
5
Alterations in the amount of intermediates at the omasum or ruminal biohydrogenation pathways were not accompanied by major changes in analyzed bacterial populations.
