Evaluation of methodology for determination of availability of amino acids and energy in feedstuffs for poultry
Abstract
dc:descriptionIn vitro and in vivo methods were evaluated for determining protein quality and availability of amino acids (AA) and energy in various feedstuffs or feed ingredients for poultry. In vitro assays included pepsin digestibility and lanthionine analysis. In vivo methods involved protein quality chick assay, AA bioavailability chick assay, and true AA digestibility and TMEn assay using conventional and cecectomized cockerels. Cecal retention of AA and effect of hindgut microbes on AA excretion were evaluated.
