Protein Sources
Soybean meal (SBM) is a common plant-based protein source in the swine industry. Its crude protein content is 44 to 50%. However, the presence of antinutritional factors such as high…
Soybean meal has traditionally been considered an excellent protein source for pigs because of its well-balanced amino acid profile and its competitive cost compared to other protein sources. Inclusion levels…
Soybean meal is a major protein source of gestation and lactating sow diets because of its high protein quality and amino acid profile. But the quality of soybean meal varies…
…more research is required to establish the starch and protein digestion rates of commonly used feed grains and protein sources. Reductions in dietary crude CP contents will reduce the chicken…
…of CP and the same ideal protein profile. Crystalline Lys, Met, and Thr were used to obtain desired AA levels of balanced protein but not to keep similar AA concentrations…
…and protein decreased 1.2% comparing the oldest and newest genotypes. The application of N fertilizer did not significantly affect protein and AAs concentrations. Leucine, proline, cysteine, and tryptophan concentrations were…
Soya bean meal (SBM) is the most important source of protein and indispensable amino acids in non-ruminant diets worldwide. The chemical composition, protein quality and nutritive value of commercial SBM…
…While protein and amino acids are needed in order to meet requirements for growth, excess protein can predispose pigs to post-weaning diarrhea, thought to be the result of fermentation of…
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of reduced dietary protein levels on metabolism and performance in growing-finishing broilers under thermoneutral temperature or thermal stress. Two…
…an experimental diet where SBM was included in the diet as the sole source of protein (20.5% crude protein) for three days. Feed, meal and ideal digesta samples were collected…
