A bioassay for true metabolizable energy in feedingstuffs.
In 12 experiments with S.C.W.L. roosters it was shown that for each of 12 feedingstuffs there was a linear relationship between feed input and the amount of energy voided as excreta. In the 24 h. period, following 21 hr. of starvation, roosters receiving no feed excreted 4.07 kcal./kg. of body weight. When dextrose was fed the energy voided as excreta did not increase with dextrose input; conse...
متن کاملA New Precision–Fed Chick Assay for Determining True Metabolizable Energy Values of some Poultry Feed Ingredients for Broiler Chickens
Two experiments were conducted to determine: first, the best time of excreta collection after force feeding of broilers to yield the maximal amount of excreta, and second, nitrogen-corrected true metabolizable energy contents of some poultry feedstuffs including yellow corn, soybean meal, corn gluten meal, canola meal and poultry by-product meal by a new precision-fed chick assay using 3-week-o...
متن کاملEstimation and modeling true metabolizable energy of sorghum grain for poultry.
Sorghum grain is an important ingredient in poultry diets. The TMEn content of sorghum grain is a measure of its quality. As for the other feed ingredients, the biological procedure used to determine the TMEn value of sorghum grain is costly and time consuming. Therefore, it is necessary to find an alternative method to accurately estimate the TMEn content. In this study, 2 methods of regressio...
متن کاملApplication of Mathematical Models to Estimate Metabolizable Energy Contents of Energetic Concentrate Feedstuffs for Poultry
A study using 51 wheat, 56 barley and 34 oat grain samples was conducted to investigate the feasibility of predicting the apparent metabolizable energy (AME) value of these cereals for poultry. Stepwise regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship of AME with starch, ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), soluble sugar (SS), ash and crude protein (CP) (for wheat and barley gra...
متن کاملMetabolizable Energy in Feeding Systems for Pigs and Poultry
The major consideration in this paper is the suitability of a metabolizable energy system for pigs. For poultry there is no practical alternative since urine and faeces are voided conjointly. The correction to digestible energy of a feedstuff for energy in urine is usually small, but there are circumstances when this may be large. Furthermore there are insufficient data on metabolizable energy ...
