Recent data has indicated that interactions among the branched-chain amino acids, specifically valine and leucine, can negatively influence broiler performance and carcass traits. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to observe…

…humidity during 8 h/day and 16 h of thermoneutrality, (21–25 °C/ 58–62 % relative humidity). The diets were isocaloric (13.18 MJ/kg), following amino acid corrections. The analyzed variables were: protein…
An experiment was conducted to test the hypothesis that excess dietary Leu affects metabolism of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) in growing pigs. Forty barrows (initial body weight [BW]: 30.0 ±…
…if diet energy is reduced. When changing dietary energy, the lysine:calorie ratio and phosphorus:calorie ratio should be adjusted to maintain proper amino acid and phosphorus intake to support optimum growth….

…this study was to evaluate the effect of a carbohydrase mixture (CM) and dietary fiber level on standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of protein and amino acids (AA) and apparent ileal…
Three experiments were conducted to determine the effects of increasing soybean meal (SBM) levels by replacing feed-grade amino acids (AA) in corn, corn dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS), and…
…and other plant protein sources (Swick, 1995; Swick, 1998). Because of the relatively good amino acid profile, it is usually used to balance the dietary amino acid levels with cereal…
…metabolize energy content (TMEN) of SBM. To detect these deviances in nutritional value, broiler or rooster bioassays with subsequent laboratory analyses can be completed to determine digestible amino acid and…
