Intake estimation of horses grazing tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) or fed tall fescue hay
JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCE, 92(5), 2304–2308.
author keywords: alkanes; horses; intake; pasture; tall fescue
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animals; Body Weight; Cross-Over Studies; Diet / veterinary; Feeding Behavior / physiology; Horses / physiology; Lolium; Male
TL;DR:
Alkanes can be used to estimate pasture or hay DMI and DMD, and pasture intake exceeded hay intake when offered ad libitum, in conclusion.

2011 journal article
Use of plant hydrocarbons as markers to estimate voluntary intake and digestibility in beef steers
LIVESTOCK SCIENCE, 139(3), 245–251.
author keywords: Alkanes; Cattle; Intake; Digestion
TL;DR:
Calculating dry matter intake of grazing herbivores has been an issue in determining factors such as efficiency and digestibility of forages, and two experiments were conducted using alkanes to validate analytical methods with oven-dried and freeze-d dried samples, compare and contrast measured and estimated intake.
