Partitioning of energy and degradability of browse plants in vitro and the implications of blocking the effects of tannin by the addition of polyethylene glycol

The gas production in vitro method was used to evaluate the degradability and gas production of browse plants in the absence or presence of polyethylene glycol 8000 (PEG).
