title: Feed-induced changes in transport across the rumen epithelium.
abstract: The effect of feeding strategy on rumen epithelial growth and transport capacity were studied in sixteen dairy cows. There was a significant effect of feeding strategy on transport of butyrate, sodium and chloride ions, which could not be explained by changes in epithelial surface area, structure or resistance.
