Protein contamination on Klason lignin contents in tropical grasses and legumes
Detmann,Edenio; Franco,Marcia de Oliveira; Gomes,Daiany Íris; Barbosa,Marcília Medrado; Valadares Filho,Sebastião de CamposThe objective of this work was to evaluate the extent of protein contamination on Klason lignin (KL) in tropical grasses and legumes, and to propose an equation to estimate the protein-free content of Klason lignin (KLp). Five grass (30 samples) and 12 legume species (31 samples) were evaluated. Legumes had higher KL contents. Protein contamination was significant in both grasses and legumes, but greater in leg...
Evaluation of sodium sulfite and protein correction in analyses of fibrous comp...
Gomes,Daiany Íris; Detmann,Edenio; Valadares Filho,Sebastião de Campos; Mezzomo,Rafael; Souza,Natália Krish de Paiva; Queiroz,Augusto César deThe objective of this study was to evaluate the contents of fibrous compounds in tropical grasses and legumes according to utilization of sodium sulfite in the neutral detergent solution or using a procedure for contaminant protein correction. Samples of ten grasses and ten legumes were used. The contents of neutral detergent fiber were decreased when sodium sulfite was used; however, more prominent reductions ...
