Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

Walter J. J. Gerrits focuses on Food science, Rumen, Dry matter, Animal science and Neutral Detergent Fiber. His studies deal with areas such as Fiber, Morning and Fatty acid as well as Food science. His Rumen research incorporates themes from Silage, Methanogenesis and Nitrate.

As a part of the same scientific family, Walter J. J. Gerrits mostly works in the field of Silage, focusing on Animal feed and, on occasion, Weight gain. His Dry matter research includes themes of Dairy cattle and Beef cattle. His Animal science study combines topics in areas such as Humidity, Low protein and Relative humidity.

His most cited work include:

  • Nitrate and sulfate: Effective alternative hydrogen sinks for mitigation of ruminal methane production in sheep (181 citations)
  • A generalized Michaelis-Menten equation for the analysis of growth. (168 citations)
  • Modelling the implications of feeding strategy on rumen fermentation and functioning of the rumen wall (162 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Walter J. J. Gerrits mainly investigates Animal science, Food science, Biochemistry, Fermentation and Nutrient. His work carried out in the field of Animal science brings together such families of science as Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Straw. The various areas that he examines in his Food science study include Fatty acid and Polysaccharide.

His study connects Resistant starch and Fermentation. His research in Dry matter intersects with topics in Silage and Rumen. His Rumen research integrates issues from Urea and Neutral Detergent Fiber.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (43.38%)
  • Food science (29.78%)
  • Biochemistry (15.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Animal science (43.38%)
  • Nutrient (11.40%)
  • Food science (29.78%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Walter J. J. Gerrits spends much of his time researching Animal science, Nutrient, Food science, Digestion and Starch. His Animal science study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soldier fly and Hermetia illucens. His study in Food science is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Tryptophan and In vitro.

In his work, Fermentation, Suidae and Feeding behavior is strongly intertwined with Maize starch, which is a subfield of Digestion. His Starch research includes elements of Stomach and Small intestine. His Dry matter research focuses on Excretion and how it relates to Straw.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Upcycling food leftovers and grass resources through livestock: Impact of livestock system and productivity (15 citations)
  • Bioconversion efficiencies, greenhouse gas and ammonia emissions during black soldier fly rearing – A mass balance approach (11 citations)
  • The Molecular and Physiological Effects of Protein-Derived Polyamines in the Intestine. (11 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Animal science, Small intestine, Weaning, Gastric emptying and Stomach. Walter J. J. Gerrits interconnects Lactose, Insulin, Starter, Straw and Metabolism in the investigation of issues within Animal science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Digestion and Starch in addition to Small intestine.

His Digestion study is focused on Food science in general. His research on Food science often connects related topics like Fatty acid. His Gastric emptying research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sucrose, Gastrointestinal tract, Nutrient and Solubility.
