Twelve types of indigestible plastic balls composed of a combination of four specific gravities (0.95, 1.19, 1.41, or 2.20) and three diameters (3.97, 6.35, or 7.94 mm) were orally administered to lactating dairy cows, and the balls were collected from feces, after 120 h post\u2010administration, to evaluate the recovery rate. Recovery rate of the balls with specific gravity 1.19 or 1.41 and diameter 6.35 or 7.94 mm was higher than those with specific gravity 0.95 or 2.20 and diameter 3.97 mm. The cumulative recovery rate at 24 and 48 h post\u2010administration was higher for balls with specific gravity 1.19 than that for balls with other specific gravities. These results suggest that specific gravity 1.19 or 1.41 and diameters 6.35\u22127.94 mm are optimal for use in bypass capsules for administration to cattle. In addition, the passage time of capsules differed between specific gravities 1.19 and 1.41.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/asj.12590","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,30]],"date-time":"2016-04-30T18:54:37Z","timestamp":1462042477000},"page":"94-98","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Excretion rates of indigestible plastic balls of different specific gravities and diameters in dairy cattle"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"88","author":[{"given":"Tomohiro","family":"Seyama","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Research Local incorporated administrative agency Research Institute of Environment, Agriculture and Fisheries, Osaka Prefecture  Osaka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hirofumi","family":"Hirayasu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Research Local incorporated administrative agency Research Institute of Environment, Agriculture and Fisheries, Osaka Prefecture  Osaka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Koji","family":"Kasai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Research Local incorporated administrative agency Research Institute of Environment, Agriculture and Fisheries, Osaka Prefecture  Osaka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_4_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1079\/BJN19620049"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3168\/jds.S0022-0302(75)84697-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2527\/jas1984.592470x"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1079\/BJN19850042"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1079\/BJN19730114"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5713\/ajas.2002.708"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_8_1","volume-title":"Japanese Feeding Standard for Daily Cattle","author":"National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO)","year":"2009"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3168\/jds.S0022-0302(82)82182-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0021859600028859"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0021859600055623"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_12_1","first-page":"65","article-title":"Fecal particle size of cattle fed the diets containing corn silage","volume":"46","author":"Terada F","year":"1987","journal-title":"Bulletin of the National Institute of Animal Industry"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_13_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Ruminal dynamics of various particulate fractions as related to the voluntary intake of hay","volume":"20","author":"Ueda K","year":"1996","journal-title":"Hokkaido University Collection of Scholarly and Academic Papers"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"230","DOI":"10.7591\/9781501732355","volume-title":"Nutritional ecology of the ruminant","author":"Van Soest PJ","year":"1994"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-94-011-8067-2_2"}],"container-title":["Animal Science Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fasj.12590","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fasj.12590","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/asj.12590","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,3]],"date-time":"2023-10-03T00:52:06Z","timestamp":1696294326000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/asj.12590"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,29]]},"references-count":14,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/asj.12590"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/asj.12590","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1344-3941","1740-0929"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1344-3941","type":"print"},{"value":"1740-0929","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,29]]}}}
