Abstract:
Tinospora cordifolia stands as a testament to the rich botanical heritage of traditional medicine. Its diverse array of bioactive compounds contributes to a myriad of health benefits, ranging from immune system support to anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. In the direction of recognize new ways to mitigate methane emission from ruminants. T. cordifolia was evaluated using In vitro gas production technique. The dry powder of T. cordifolia stem was included at the level of 0, 10, and 15% of substrate. The addition of T. cordifolia stem powder under in vitro-gas production system has not shown any effect on total gas and methane production, Dm degradability, NH3-N, VFAs concentration. However, protozoa count was significantly reduced.
