title: Abnormal ruminal digestion in cattle with dominantly non-digestive disorders.
abstract: Health disturbances of ruminal origin in cattle are summed up. The problems are classified in those caused by special feed (NPN for example), those caused by insufficient ruminal detoxication capacity (poisoning by nitrate or aliphatic N-derivates) and belonging to ruminal toxin production (3-methyl-indole, S-methyl-cysteine-sulfoxide, glucosinolates) and arranged in pathophysiological sense.
