Digestion of fatty acids in ruminants: a meta-analysis of flows and variation factors: 2. C18 fatty acids

In ruminants, dietary lipids are extensively hydrogenated by rumen micro-organisms, and the extent of this biohydrogenation is a major determinant of long-chain fatty acid profiles of animal products (milk, meat).
