Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the feeding values of red pepper seed oil meal (RPSOM) and to investigate its dietary supplementation on broiler performances. In Exp. 1, nutritional values of RPSOM were evaluated by analyzing chemical composition and determining true metabolizable energy (TME), nitrogen corrected TME (TMEn) and true available amino acid (TAAA). RPSOM contained 22.50%...

A set of prediction equations to estimate the nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolizable energy (AMEn) of individual ingredients and diets used in the poultry feed industry was evaluated. The AMEn values of three energy ingredients (maize, sorghum and defatted maize germ meal), four protein ingredients (soybean meal, maize gluten meal 60% crude protein, integral micronized soy and roasted whole ...

The experiment was performed to study the relationship between excreta viscosity and Nitrogen-corrected true metabolisable energy quantities of soybean meals using conventional addition method (CAM) in adult cockerels for 7 d: a 3-d preexperiment and a 4-d experiment period. Results indicated that differences between the excreta viscosity values were (P<0.01) significant for SBMs. The excreta v...

in the first experiment, the nitrogen corrected apparent metabolizable energy (amen) and nutrients apparent digestibility of full fat soybean (ffsb) extruded at 145, 155 (common temperature) and 165 o c were evaluated. the corn-soy based diets were replaced with zero, 7.5, 15 and 22.5 % of each ffsb extruded at three temperatures during 15-21 d of age and amen and nutrients digestibility of eff...

Two experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that apparent metabolizable energy (AME) and standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of amino acids (AA) in fermented soybean meal (FSBM) are greater than those (SBM). FSBM was produced by fermenting SBM with a mixture Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The fermentation process decreased trypsin i...

The effect of phytase on the performance, AMEn, and the ileal digestibility of N and amino acids was investigated in a 15-d trial using day-old male broilers with diets that were low in Ca (0.9% for control and 0.79% for phytase treatment) and available P (AP; 0.45% for control and 0.35% for phytase treatment). The assayed dietary phytase activity of crumble diet was 1,149 phytase unit (FTU)/kg...
