The utilization of protein and excretion of uric acid in germ-free and conventional chicks.
I. The influence of the gut microflora on protein utilization has been investigated with a series of goodand poor-quality protein diets in germ-free (GF) and conventional (CV) chicks by the measurement of net protein utilization (NPU) and uric acid excretion. 2. The diets used were: 280 g protein per kg dict containing unheated or hcat-damaged albumen (roo gjkg), casein (80 g/kg) and gelatin (1...
متن کاملSkeletal muscle protein turnover in broiler and layer chicks.
Dietary infusion of L-[U-14C]tyrosine was used to estimate the fractional protein synthesis rates (FSR) in broiler and layer chickens. Six 2-wk-old birds of each strain were placed in individual metabolism cages and given a purified diet in agar-gel containing 2 microCi L-[U-14C]tyrosine for 6 h. The birds were sacrificed and the pectoralis major (PM) and two combined leg (LM) muscles (gastrocn...
متن کاملProtein and energy utilization in germ-free and conventional chicks given diets containing different levels of dietary protein.
The present study was done to clarify the relationship between the amount of dietary protein given to, and the gut microflora of, the host. Day-old chicks were given diets containing three concentrations of dietary protein (50, 200 and 400 g/kg) for 14 d. Body-weight gain, food consumption, body consumption, and protein and energy utilization were measured. There was no difference in body-weigh...
متن کاملEffect of viscosity on digestion of nutrients in conventional and germ-free chicks.
A study was conducted with conventional and germ-free broiler chicks to obtain more information on the role of the intestinal microflora in the anti-nutritive effects of NSP in broiler chicks. As the NSP source, highly methylated citrus pectin (HMC) was used at a dose level of 30 g/kg in a maize-based diet. The diets fed to the germ-free chicks were gamma-irradiated, whereas those fed to the co...
متن کاملInfluence of the diet on the turnover of bile acids in germ-free and conventional rats.
I , [z4-14C]cholic acid was given to conventional and germ-free rats and the faecal isotope excretion studied for 8 days. The turnover, pool size and daily excretion of cholic acid and its rnctabolites were calculated for rats on three different diets, i.e. a commercial type diet (pellets), a semi-synthetic diet without (D7) and with 20% cellulose (D7+cellulose). The transit time of theintestin...
