Effect of supplementation of guanidinoacetic acid and arginine in vegetable diets for broiler on performance, carcass yield and meat quality

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2018
Birds fed with vegetable diets rely on the endogenous synthesis of creatine, which requires amino acids, some of which, for example arginine (Arg), are considered essential for several physiological and metabolic functions.

Dietary Eritadenine Suppresses Guanidinoacetic Acid-Induced Hyperhomocysteinemia in Rats [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 2006
We assessed the effect of eritadenine, a hypocholesterolemic factor isolated from the edible mushroom Lentinus edodes, on plasma homocysteine concentration using methyl-group acceptor-induced hyperhomocysteinemic rats. Male Wistar rats were fed a control diet or diets supplemented with a methyl-group acceptor or a precursor of methyl-group acceptor ...

Co-administration of methyl donors along with guanidinoacetic acid reduces the incidence of hyperhomocysteinaemia compared with guanidinoacetic acid administration alone [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Nutrition, 2013
Guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) is the natural biosynthetic precursor of creatine, in a metabolic reaction that requires only a methyl group transfer. The use of GAA as a food additive for restoring creatine load in human tissues is rather unexplored and data on efficacy and safety are limited.

Performance, Carcass Yield, Muscle Amino Acid Profile, and Levels of Brain Neurotransmitters in Aged Laying Hens Fed Diets Supplemented with Guanidinoacetic Acid

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Guanidinoacetic acid (GA) is a natural precursor of creatine in the body and is usually used to improve the feed conversion and cellular energy metabolism of broiler chickens.

Urinary Excretion Rate of Guanidinoacetic Acid in Essential Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesNephron, 1988
The kidney is one of the major target organs in hypertension. Longterm persistent hypertension causes nephrosclerosis pathologicaly in 70–90% of patients1–2. Concerning the laboratory findings correlated with this pathological change, urinary micro-albumin (mAlb), s-2-microglobuline (RMG) and N-acetyl-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) have been reported as early

Effect of dietary inclusion of guanidinoacetic acid on broiler performance

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2020
Background: Creatine and its precursor, guanidinoacetic acid (GAA), decrease protein degradation, avoiding amino acid offset to gluconeogenesis.

Effects of guanidinoacetic acid supplementation on liver and breast muscle fat deposition, lipid levels, and lipid metabolism-related gene expression in ducks

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Exogenous supplementation of guanidinoacetic acid can mechanistically regulate the energy distribution in muscle cells. This study aimed to investigate the effects of guanidinoacetic acid supplementation on liver and breast muscle fat deposition, lipid ...

Enhancing Open‐Circuit Voltage and Fill Factor in Sn‐Based Perovskite Solar Cells: Challenges and Opportunities for Sustainable Photovoltaics

open access: yesSusMat, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
This review summarizes advances in tin (Sn)‐based perovskite solar cells, a promising lead‐free alternative. It examines the main causes of Voc and fill factor losses, including Sn2+ oxidation, undercoordinated sites, and deep‐level traps. Strategies such as molecular coordination, surface passivation, compositional tuning, interface engineering, and ...

Effects of guanidinoacetic acid supplementation on growth performance, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis, and immunity of broilers challenged with chronic heat stress

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2023
: Heat stress can cause systemic immune dysregulation and threaten the health of broilers. Guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) has been shown to be effective against heat stress, but whether it is beneficial for immunity is unclear.Therefore, the effects of ...
