The abomasum, also known as the maw, [1] rennet-bag, [1] or reed tripe, [1] is the fourth and final stomach compartment in ruminants. It secretes rennet , which is used in cheese creation. The word abomasum ( ab- "away from" + omasum " intestine of an ox ") is from Neo-Latin and it was first used in English in 1706.
abomasum—true stomach; The first two chambers are the rumen and the reticulum. These two compartments make up the fermentation vat and are the major site of microbial activity. Fermentation is crucial to digestion because it breaks down complex carbohydrates, such as cellulose, and enables the animal to use them.
Displaced abomasum in cattle occurs when the abomasum, also known as the true stomach, which typically resides on the floor of the abdomen, fills with gas and rises to the top of the abdomen, where it is said to be ‘displaced’. When the abomasum moves from its normal position it prevents the natural passage of gas and feed through the ...
Abomasum beef tripe, stomach chamber 4. Reed tripe. Beef tripe is made from the muscle wall (the interior mucosal lining is removed) of a cow 's stomach chambers: the rumen (blanket/flat/smooth tripe), the reticulum (honeycomb and pocket tripe), and the omasum (book/bible/leaf tripe).
Being ruminants, the stomach is composed of four chambers: the rumen (80%), the omasum, the reticulum, and the abomasum. The ciliates and bacteria of the rumen ferment the complex cellulose into simpler fatty acids , which are then absorbed through the rumen wall.
The four chambers are the only set of their kind operating in the United States, and will allow university researchers to measure and monitor the emission of methane and other gases from cows ...

Anatomical model, showing the large 4-chambered stomach Cattle are large artiodactyls , mammals with cloven hooves , meaning that they walk on two toes, the third and fourth digits. Like all bovid species, they can have horns, which are unbranched and are not shed annually. [ 5 ]
