…hour excreta collection period was conducted for apparent metabolizable energy corrected for nitrogen excretion (AMEn) determination from 29 to 31 d of age. The three experimental treatments were a basal…
Inflammatory responses in broilers are detrimental to the goals of the broiler industry as inflammation results in worsened growth performance by reducing feed intake and muscle protein accretion while increasing…
…evaluate pig performance. Determining Productive Energy Content of Soybean Meal For many years, nutritionists have used digestible energy (DE) and metabolizable energy (ME) to estimate the energy content of…
We studied the chemical composition, protein quality, in vitro protein digestibility (IVPD), and in vivo apparent ileal protein digestibility (AIPD) and AMEn content, of 27 soybean meal (SBM) samples from…
Most broiler nutrient requirement suggestions are given to maximize growth rate and minimize feed conversion ratio (FCR). Economic return and profit analysis are often neglected. In a previous study, we…
We studied the effects of harvesting year and country of origin of the beans on the chemical composition, amino acid (AA) profile, and protein quality indicators of commercial soybean meals…
Two experiments were conducted to determine DE and ME and standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of AA in heat-treated soybean meal (SBM) fed to growing pigs. The 9 treatments were prepared…
This study evaluated the effects of a modified soy oil (MSO) in diets with or without medium chain triglycerides from palm kernel oil (MCT). The study utilized 1,840 pigs (~19…
