5. Microbial biomass in faeces of dairy cows affected by a nitrogen deficient diet 39<br />

Table 1. Feed intake of silage and concentrate in kg per day and diet composition<br />

Silage Concentrate<br />

Feeding (kg d -1 ) 9.9 ± 0.22 7.9 ± 0.18 7.9 ± 0.18<br />

Dry matter (% FM) 36 88 88<br />

ND = N deficient feeding, NB = N balanced feeding; DM = dry matter; FM = fresh<br />

matter; NDF = Neutral detergent fibre, ADF = Acid detergent fibre; cow replicates per<br />

feeding regime n = 5, replicate sub-samples for experiments n = 3; ± standard<br />

deviation.<br />

5.2.2. Faecal C and N fractions<br />

Total C and N were determined after dry combustion by gas chromatography using<br />

a Vario MAX (Elementar, Hanau, Germany) elemental analyzer. Total phosphor and<br />

sulphur were analyzed after HNO3-pressure digestion as described by Chander et al.<br />

(2008) by ICP-AES (Spectro Analytical Instruments, Kleve, Germany). Faeces pH was<br />

measured using a 1/1 Aqua dist./faeces ratio. Crude ash was determined by ashing<br />

overnight at 550 °C in a muffle furnace. Ammonium and the organic components such<br />

as acid detergent lignin (ADL), acid detergent fibre (ADF), neutral detergent fibre<br />

(NDF), and undigested dietary N (UDN) were determined by near-infrared spectroscopy<br />

(FOSS 6500, Rellingen, Germany), as described by Althaus and Sundrum (University<br />

of Kassel, Witzenhausen, Germany, personal communication). Hemicellulose was<br />

calculated as the difference between NDF and ADF. All data were the mean of five<br />

cows for each feeding regime. Three replicates were taken from each cow on three<br />

different sampling days.
