Abstract

Abstract A rapid procedure for determining cellwall constituents of plants consists of the determination of the fiber insoluble in neutral detergent and is applicable to all feedstuffs. The standardization of the method is based on a nutritional concept which defines fiber as insoluble vegetable matter which is indigestible by proteolytic and diastatic enzymes and which cannot be utilized except by microbial fermentation in the digestive tracts of animals.
