changes in dietary electrolyte balance influence the metabolic fate of protein and many amino acids. furthermore, acid-base condition is achieved in part by the alteration of dietary amino acids pattern and quantity. therefore, a trial was conducted in a completely randomized design to evaluate performance, carcass characteristics, plasma electrolyte and uric acid concentrations of 19 and 28-da...

Quality of soybeans and soybean meals (SBM) from non-US and US origins were compared. The US SBM was more consistent with higher digestibility (by KOH solubility), lower fiber and better quality of protein (by essential amino acid levels) than SBM of other major export origins (Argentina, Brazil and India). Protein quality carried through from whole soybeans to SBM, for a given origin. While th...

A modern progressive direction in the development of confectionery production is creation new resource-saving technologies and flour products with a reduced energy value based on use various types non-traditional local raw materials. The application oilseed cake food industry makes it possible to enrich chemical composition proteins, lipids, dietary fiber, vitamins minerals. amaranth oil as dry...

amino acids (aa) are important in poultry nutrition not only for protein deposition, but also for other metabolic functions; such as improving immune and gut functions. although, some table values are available on amino acids requirement, aa requirements may vary due to changes in dietary composition and breeding selection. thus amino acids requirements have remained an ongoing research topic. ...

A considerable amount of research has been conducted on the effects of feeding DDGS to poultry. Corn DDGS is an excellent feed ingredient for use in layer, broiler, duck and turkey diets and contains approximately 85% of the energy value in corn, has moderate levels of protein and essential amino acids, and is high in available phosphorus. Layer and broiler diets can easily contain up to 10% DD...

abstract        background and objective: measurement of amino acids is an important tool for metabolic studies and evaluation of patients’ clinical condition. the aim of this study was to analyze the plasma amino acids using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography techniques (rp-hplc) with pre-column derivatization by o-phthalaldehyde (opa) in combination with 3- mercaptopropionic...

There is little research data available on the digestible Lys requirement of broilers from 2 to 4 wk of age. Two experiments were conducted to determine the digestible Lys requirements of male and female Ross x Ross TP16 broilers from 14 to 28 d. Two diets (dilution and summit) consisting of corn, soybean meal, poultry by-product meal, and peanut meal were formulated to be adequate in all other...
