Abstract: Measurement of the irreversible loss rate (ILR) of acetate, propionate and butyrate by radioisotope dilution of the respective tracers in sheep offered chopped dried grass from continuous belt type feeders gave 'plateau samples', the specific radioactivity of which had unacceptably high variance (coefficient of variation [cv] of the five or six samples taken from any one animal over the last four hours of 10 hours infusion ranged from 16 to 57 per cent). In an experiment which attempted to identify the source of this variability the distribution of the liquid phase marker 51Cr EDTA into different areas of the rumen was examined during its administration either in liquid form or impregnated on paper. The paper provided better mixing but incurred considerable spillage problems which would be unacceptable where calculations of ILR were required. Radiographic observations were made to examine the mixing of radio-opaque liquid and solid phase markers in the rumen. A better mixing of both was achieved with intermittent than continuous feeding. When 1-14C- and 2-14C-labelled acetate were each infused into the rumen of four sheep given two levels of chopped dried grass by means of hourly feeders, samples of rumen liquor gave much lower variability of the mean plateau specific radioactivity values than was obtained in experiment 1 (cv less than 15 per cent in all but one sheep). The ILRs of acetate and the transfer quotients of carbon from acetate to butyrate obtained using 1-14C- and 2-14C-labelled acetate were similar MenosAbstract: Measurement of the irreversible loss rate (ILR) of acetate, propionate and butyrate by radioisotope dilution of the respective tracers in sheep offered chopped dried grass from continuous belt type feeders gave 'plateau samples', the specific radioactivity of which had unacceptably high variance (coefficient of variation [cv] of the five or six samples taken from any one animal over the last four hours of 10 hours infusion ranged from 16 to 57 per cent).
