An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect lysine and methionine supplementation low protein diet on production performance serum biochemical parameters in Vanaraja laying hens. One hundred twenty (n=120), 30-weeks old hens were randomly distributed into four dietary treatments with three replicates each group having 10 birds replicate. Four diets formulated 2600 kcal/kg of metabolizabl...

Growing pigs (n = 25; 17.8 +/- 0.1 kg) were used to study the effects of L-carnitine and protein intake on nitrogen (N) balance and body composition. Fat-supplemented (40 g soy oil/kg diet), corn-soybean meal basal diets containing low or high protein (136 or 180 g/diet) were formulated so that protein accretion would be limited by metabolizable energy (ME). Each basal diet was supplemented wit...

in order to determine the optimal levels of energy and protein in grower diet of japanese quail, 360 dayold japanese quails were used in a 3×3 factorial arrangement of dietary treatments that comprised threelevels of metabolisable energy (2750, 2850, and 2950 kcal/kg) and three levels of crude protein (24, 26and 28 percent) with four replicates per treatment in a completely randomized design. f...

A feeding trial was performed to evaluate the effects of dietary L-threonine supplementation on growth and body composition fingerlings Rhamdia quelen (initial weight: 4.47 ± 0.39 g). Five diets (370 g/kg crude protein 14.23 MJ / kg digestible energy) containing levels (16.0, 22.0, 28.0, 34.0, 40.0 g threonine/kg protein) were fed quadruplicate groups fishes for 10 weeks. The analysed variables...

A trial was conducted to determine the effect of low crude protein (CP) diets with constant metabolizable energy to crude protein (ME:CP) ratio on growth, body composition and nutrient utilization of broiler chicks from 1 to 26 days of age. Four dietary treatments having four levels of CP and ME as 23, 22, 21 and 20% and 3,036, 2,904, 2,772 and 2,640 kcal/kg, respectively, were formulated and a...

The objective of this experiment was to determine whether the digestibility of CP and AA in a mixed diet fed to growing pigs is better predicted when based on standardized ileal digestibility coefficients (SID) or apparent ileal digestibility coefficients (AID). Eight growing pigs (initial BW = 92.1 +/- 3.19 kg) were surgically equipped with a T-cannula in the distal ileum and arranged in an 8 ...

Four mature rumen and abomasal cannulated wethers were used in a 2 x 2 reversal experiment to study the effect of forage quality on daily quantity of abomasal protein and microbial protein synthesis. Diets were either high quality [HOo 16.4% crude protein (CP)] or low quality (LOo 9.3% CP) Coastal bermudagrass which provided 110.7 and 58.3 g CP intake daily, respectively. Non-ammonia CP reachin...

Concentrated animal feeding operations are major sources of ammonia to the atmosphere. Control methods to reduce emissions include acidifying amendments, urease inhibitors, and absorbents. For beef cattle, decreasing crude protein (CP) in diets may be the most practical and cost-effective method to reduce ammonia emissions. Our objective was to quantify the effect of reducing CP in beef cattle ...

in this study the effect of diet dilution in 16-20 d of age and using a multi-enzyme (endofeed-w) on performance, carcass characteristics and some blood parameters of broiler chickens (cobb 500, commercial strain) was studied. this experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement 2×3 in a completely randomized design with 3 replicates and 8 chicks in each replicate. experimental diets contai...
