Ammonia-N and TVFA from sheanut cake, expeller and solvent extractions with PEG-6000 in vitro
| SN-cake | SN- expeller | SN-solvent extracted | SEM | p | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NH3-N (m mol/dl) | 13.6 c | 12.8 b | 11.5 a | 0.965 | 0.0325 |
| With PEG | 16.4 c | 14.7 b | 13.1 a | 0.026 | 0.0436 |
| TVFA (mg/dl) | 15.6 b | 11.3 a | 11.6 a | 1.236 | 0.0365 |
| With PEG | 15.1 b | 12.1 a | 15.2b | 0.965 | 0.0523 |
SN-cake = Sheanut cake; SN-expeller = Sheanut expeller; SN-solvent extracted = Sheanut solvent extracted; PEG = Polyethylene glycol; NH3-N = Ammonia-N; TVFA = Total volatile fatty acids.
Means in a row with different superscript differ significantly (p<0.05).
