ARIAS-ISLAS, Erika; MORALES-BARRERA, Jesús; PRADO-REBOLLEDO, Omar  and  GARCIA-CASILLAS, Arturo. Metabolism in ruminants and its association with blood biochemical analytes. Abanico vet [online]. 2020, vol.10, e231.  Epub Mar 02, 2021. ISSN 2448-6132.  https://doi.org/10.21929/abavet2020.15.

The present study is an analysis of scientific elements on the metabolism of ruminants: polysaccharides, proteins and lipids. Where i) the fermentative digestion carried out by microorganisms, ii) the posruminal digestion and absorption and iii) the metabolism of each monomer is associated with the blood analytes that give us an approximation to the nutritional metabolism of the animal, also confer information on alterations and adjustments homeostatic. This review emphasizes the metabolism of monosaccharides, amino acids, and fatty acids. Therefore, the revised information aims to make the understanding of catabolic and anabolic processes in ruminant nutrition.

Keywords : glucose; lipids; polysaccharides; proteins and urea.
