a determination bioavailability of herbal methionine based upon growth performance and immunocompetence in broiler chickens
Authors
abstract
a total of 160 day-old male broiler chickens (ross 308) were divided in a completely randomized design experiment, and assigned to 8 treatments and 4 replicates in their experimental units (cages). treatments included: t1: basal diet with no additional methionine, t2: basal diet plus 0.06, t3: basal diet plus 0.11, t4: basal diet plus 0.17 % of dl-methionine, t5: basal diet plus 0.06, t6: basal diet plus 0.11, t7: basal diet plus 0.17, t8: basal diet plus 0.22 % of herbal methionine. to investigate the immunocompetence of birds at 28 and 42 days of age, two tests were conducted: responding to antibody titer against antigen of sheep red blood cell (srbc) and responding to dilution 1-choloro 2-3- dinitrobenzene (dncb). multiexponential and multilinear regressions were employed to determine bioavailability of herbal methionine (h-met)® relative to dl-met on growth performance and immunocompetence of broilers. body weight gain and feed intake of the broilers (fed either h-met or dl met) improved in the experiment, regardless of met sources, in comparison with broilers fed basal diet. immunocompetence results of broilers were not significant at 28 day of age (p

Bioavailability comparison between herbal methionine and DL-methionine on growth performance and immunocompetence basis in broiler chickens
BACKGROUND:Herbal methionine can be compared relative toDl-methionine with evaluation of bioavailability of this source ofmethionine. OBJECTIVES: An experiment was carried out todetermine the relative bioefficacy of herbal methionine (H-Met)®relative to DL-methionine (DL-Met) on performance criteria andimmunocompetence of Met sources in male broilers. Atotal of 160male broilers were fed a Met-d...

This study was conducted to compare the bio-efficacy of herbal methionine (H-Met) relative to DL-methionine (DL-Met) on 160 “Ross 308” broiler chickens. DL-Met and H-Met were added to the basal diet in eight experimental treatments with three and four concentrations respectively in starter, grower and finisher period. Blood parameters which were measured at 24 and 42 days of age consisted of: s...

BACKGROUND: The degree to which the amount of aningested nutrient is absorbed and available to the body is calledbioavailability. OBJECTIVES: Relative effectiveness of herbalmethionine (H-Met®) compared to DL-methionine (DL-Met)was investigated in this experiment. METHODS: Exponentialregression analysis was used to determine bioefficacy of H-Met®based on body weight gain, feed intake and feed c...
