Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Agronomy
  • Food science

Adegbola T. Adesogan spends much of his time researching Silage, Food science, Agronomy, Fermentation and Forage. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Enzyme and Fatty acid. Adegbola T. Adesogan studied Agronomy and Rumen that intersect with Digestion.

The concepts of his Fermentation study are interwoven with issues in Lactic acid and Microbial inoculant. The various areas that Adegbola T. Adesogan examines in his Microbial inoculant study include Zearalenone, Aflatoxin, Lactobacillus buchneri and Ochratoxin A. His Forage research includes elements of Mycotoxin, Dry matter, Animal science and Fodder.

His most cited work include:

  • Special topics--Mitigation of methane and nitrous oxide emissions from animal operations: I. A review of enteric methane mitigation options. (448 citations)
  • Special topics--Mitigation of methane and nitrous oxide emissions from animal operations: III. A review of animal management mitigation options. (154 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Agronomy
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Silage, Food science, Fermentation, Forage and Microbial inoculant. His Silage research incorporates themes from Lactobacillus plantarum, Botulism and Dry matter. When carried out as part of a general Food science research project, his work on Fibrolytic bacterium is frequently linked to work in Cost effectiveness, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His study in Fermentation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ingestion, Listeria monocytogenes, Clostridium botulinum and Aflatoxin. His Forage study is concerned with the field of Agronomy as a whole. His Microbial inoculant research includes themes of Shelf life, Dairy cattle, Listeria, Food safety and Pathogenic bacteria.
