Foregut vs. Hindgut Fermentation

Ontogenetic diet shifting: animal food must be directed past the foregut to prevent mal-fermentation!

Because only a fluid food can be easily diverted in a bypass structure, foregut
fermentation might be primarily limited to
mammals.

Fermentation prior to enzymatic digestion and absorption:
Use of bacterial protein, bacterial products (B-Vitamins)
Bacterial detoxification?
‘Loss’ of easily digestible substrates

1. It is energetically favourable to digest ‘autoenzymatically digestible’ components autoenzymatically, not by fermentative digestion.
2. Autoenzymatically digestible components are fermented at a drastically higher rate than plant fiber.

• Digestion of plant fibre by bacteria is the more efficient ...
– the more time is available for it = the longer the mean gastrointestinal retention time.
– the finer the plant fibre particles are
= the finer the ingesta is chewed.

1. Fibre digestion with the help of symbiotic microbes is widespread in the animal kingdom
2. So is the direct use of microbial biomass - either via coprophagy, farming, or foregut fermentation
3. Reasons for different proportions of acetogenic and methanogenic hydrogen sinks in ruminants and nonruminants remain unclear
4. Due to its relevance for food encounter rates, harvesting mechanisms and surface/volume geometry, body size has an important influence on foraging strategies and digestive morphophysiology
Summary I
![Page 178: 6 Hindgut Foregut - zooklinik.uzh.chffffffff-f77d-1dab-ffff-ffffe66f... · Foregut vs. Hindgut Fermentation from Stevens & Hume (1995) Endogenous nitrogen products (urea) can be recycled](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050716/5e217eee40626c6f536aef64/html5/thumbnails/178.jpg)
6. Different merits of foregut and hindgut fermentation (at similar metabolic intensity) remain to be fully elucidated
7. Rather than classifying herbivores according to body size or digestion type, classifying herbivores according to metabolic intensity is a promising novel approach
8. Whereas the hindgut fermenter system allows a large range of metabolic intensities, the (nonruminant) foregut fermenter system appears to restrict animals to the low metabolic intensity side of the spectrum

Because rumination occurs in a state of ‘drowsiness’

Why Rumination?
(from Grau 1955)
The rumen should not be considered a ‘delay organ’ but a ‘sorting organ’ that facilitates accelerated passage of small particles.

The rumen should not be considered a ‘delay organ’ but a ‘sorting organ’ that facilitates accelerated passage of small particles. Rumination is a mechanism to increase the proportion of small particles. => The ruminant way of digestion is a strategy to shorten passage as compared to other foregut fermenters
