Prebiotics, such as indigestible oligosaccharides, are considered to be possible dietary alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters in poultry. The effects of indigestible oligosaccharides on nutrient digestibility in poultry are largely unknown. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of several oligosaccharides on amino acid ...

We conducted experiments to determine amino acid (AA) digestibility of nine animal by-product meals using precision-fed cecectomized roosters and ileally cannulated dogs. The products initially evaluated in roosters were meat and bone meals (MBM) containing 24 or 34% ash, poultry by-product meals (PBP) containing 7 or 16% ash, lamb meals (LM ...

The sensitivity of several bioassays was determined using soybean meal and two autoclaved soybean meals. Chick growth study results revealed that a four percent difference in weight gain was sufficient to show statistical significance (P less than .05) between the diets.

Amino Acid Digestibility of Feed Ingredients in Cecectomized Adult Roosters
A digestibility assay was conducted in order to determine the digestibility coefficients (DC) of amino acids of feed ingredients in cecectomized adult roosters.

Abstract Microbial determinations were made on excreta obtained from intact, cecectomized, and ileal-cannulated roosters. Mean diaminopimelic acid (DAP) quantities in the excreta from intact and cecectomized birds did not differ significantly. The DAP value was greater in excreta from intact and cecectomized birds when they were fed 30 g of either ...

Metabolizable Energy Values Determined with Intact and Cecectomized Roosters
Mature White Leghorn roosters that were intact or cecectomized were used to determine the ME of a diet. Seven intact and 7 cecectomized roosters were fasted for 3 d, with total excreta collection on d 2 and 3. Approximately 1 wk after completion of the trial, the same roosters were force-fed 28 g of a diet that was 85% corn and 15% soybean meal after a

This study was conducted to compare the concentration of standardized digestible (SDD) Lys and relative bioavailable Lys in 7 sources of corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS). A second objective was to evaluate 2 in vitro methods, reactive Lys and color score, to predict the concentration of SDD Lys and bioavailable Lys in DDGS.
