This study aimed to evaluate the effects of lipid sources with different degrees of fatty acid saturation on the intake, digestibility, nitrogen balance, nutrient flow, microbial production and efficiency, ruminal characteristics, fatty acid (FA) profile in omasal digesta (flow), and ruminal biohydrogenation. Eight rumen fistulated goats that were neither pregnant nor lactating, distributed in a double 4 x 4 Latin square design, were used. Four diets were used, one of them was the control diet (CD) and the other tree were supplemented with different sources of lipids: soy oil (SO), palm kernel oil (PKO), canola oil (CO). Supplementation with 2.3% of oil in dry matter (DM) of total diet did not influence the intakes of DM, energy and nutrients, except the ethereal extract (EE), with higher intake effects for the supplemented diets. The total apparent digestibility of dry matter and nutrients did not show any effects due to the different oil sources, although CO had shown a reduction in the ruminal digestibility of DM, organic matter (OM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), crude protein (CP), EE and total carbohydrates (TC). Nitrogen balance efficiency was not higher by using the lipid sources. DM and nutrient flow differed among the evaluated diets. The highest flow of all studied variables (g.d-1) was found when CO was used, being similar only to PKO values for NDF and TC. Reduced values for ammoniacal nitrogen concentration were found when PKO was used. It was not found variations among the diets for pH evaluation and transit kinetics. When the lipid profile of omasum was performed, high percentages of vaccenic acid (C18:1 tans- 11) was found for the diet supplemented with SO. Such diet also showed a better efficiency on the conversion of some FA s into C18:1 trans-11 in the rumen. Soy oil may be used as a supplement on dairy goat diet, associated with the ruminal pH reduction by using higher rates of concentrate in relation to the forage on the diet, as a strategy to increase excretion of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in milk without compromising nutrient digestibility, microbial efficiency and conditions of the ruminal environment.
