Microwave Heat Treatment Induced Changes in Forage Hay Digestibility and Cell Microstructure
To investigate the effects of microwave (MW) treatment on hays nutritive value, five types of hay (50 g) were treated with MW for 0 (control), 20, 40, 60, and 80 s (0, 440, 880, 1320, and 1760 kJ kg<sup>−1</sup> of MW energy, respectively) and analyzed for nutritive value prior to scanni...
