title: [Measures of ileal flux in the rabbit: comparison of ytterbium and mordant chromium and representativity of the digesta collected].
abstract: Ytterbium was compared to mordant chromium fiber to estimate ileal flow in adult rabbits. The flows of organic matter (OM) and of cell-walls (CW) were not significantly different between the two markers. CW were not degraded in the intestine, while 49% of digestible OM disappeared before the caecum.
