B rewer , D., P arkinson , V.O. & T aylor , A. 1990. A note on the antibacterial properties of 3‐{3'‐isocyanocyclopent‐2'‐enylidene)propionic acid in the ovine rumen. Journal of Applied Bacteriology 69 , 701–704. The concentration of 3‐(3'‐isocyanocyclopent‐2'‐enylidene)propionic acid after introduction into the ovine rumen declined by 50% during 30 min. Its antibacterial activity in the rumen could be demonstrated by the decline in numbers of cellulo‐lytic rumen bacteria from about 10 6 /ml to about 10 2 /ml.
