## Abstract A method is described for the prediction of the __in vivo__ digestibility (d.m.d.) and __in vivo__ cell wall digestibility of grasses: it involves incubating grass cell walls with a commercial cellulase for 16 h and measuring the optical density of the filtrate at 324 nm (O.D.). The pre
## Abstract __p__‐Coumaric acid (4‐hydroxycinnamic) and ferulic acid (4‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxycinnamic), two major hydroxycinnamic acids found in the complex cell walls of oat hulls, act as cross‐linking agents between lignin and polysaccharides or between polysaccharides. As such, they are inhibitory t
