1. Fermentation in the rumen: Acetitomaculum ruminis is a key member of the microbial community in the rumen of ruminant animals, such as cattle, sheep, and goats. In the rumen, it participates in the fermentation of complex carbohydrates derived from plant material ingested by the host animal. Acetitomaculum ruminis metabolizes sugars and other fermentable substrates, producing acetate and other volatile fatty acids as end products. These volatile fatty acids serve as important energy sources for the host animal and contribute to its nutrition.

2. Role in methane production: Acetitomaculum ruminis is involved in the production of hydrogen and carbon dioxide during fermentation in the rumen. These gases can serve as substrates for methanogenic Archaea, which produce methane as a metabolic byproduct. Methane production in the rumen is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and is also associated with reduced feed efficiency in ruminant animals. Acetitomaculum ruminis indirectly influences methane production by producing hydrogen, which is utilized by methanogens.

3. Association with gastrointestinal health: While Acetitomaculum ruminis is generally considered a commensal bacterium in the rumen, its abundance and activity may influence gastrointestinal health and function in ruminant animals. Changes in the composition and metabolic activity of rumen microbiota, including alterations in the abundance of Acetitomaculum ruminis, can impact nutrient digestion, fermentation patterns, and overall gastrointestinal health in ruminants. Imbalances in the rumen microbiota have been associated with digestive disorders and metabolic diseases in ruminant livestock.

4. Potential applications in biotechnology: Acetitomaculum ruminis and other acetogenic bacteria have potential biotechnological applications, particularly in the production of biofuels and biochemicals. These bacteria are capable of converting a variety of renewable feedstocks, such as agricultural residues and organic waste, into acetate, which can be further processed into ethanol, hydrogen, or other valuable products through microbial fermentation. Research is ongoing to optimize the fermentation processes involving acetogenic bacteria for industrial applications.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for Acetitomaculum ruminis

• Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
• UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
• Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples (Patent Pending)
