Abstract
High velocity constants for conversion of added succinate to propionate, together with estimations of pool size, showed that extracellular succinate is the major precursor of the propionate formed in the rumen. Some bacteria give off succinate as a final fermentation product which is decarboxylated by others to propionate.Entities:
