Effects of dietary supplementation of bentonite and yeast cell wall on serum blood urea nitrogen, triglyceride, alkaline phosphatase, and calcium in high-producing dairy cattle during the transition period

In conclusion, lower BUN concentration could be a result of better stimulation of ruminal microbial protein synthesis in the treatment groups and also due to lower triglyceride in control group, which might be result of lower pH in the rumen, we suggest that endotoxins binders (especially combined feeding of endotoxin binders) can modulate rumen function by optimizing the rumen pH.
