Figure 5

Cellulose crystallinity index (CrI) of alkaline-treated manure fibers and its relationship to the enzymatic digestibility (24 h) . (A) powder X-ray diffraction spectrum of fibers after treatment at different conditions, (B) correlation between enzymatic digestibility and CrI of separate NH3 treated fibers, (C) correlation between enzymatic digestibility and CrI of separate NaOH treated fibers, and (D) correlation between enzymatic digestibility and CrI of both NaOH and NH3 treated fibers, under different conditions. Data are averages of two replicates.
