Meta-analysis of effects of age on intestinal digestibility of liquid feeds in young calves. [PDF]
JDS Commun, 2021 Graphical Abstract Summary: Intestinal digestibility of nutrients in milk and milk replacer is immature at birth but increases with advancing age. We showed that digestibility of dry matter, nitrogen, and fat increased to approximately 30 days of age.

In situ degradation kinetics of 6 roughages and the intestinal digestibility of the rumen undegradable protein. [PDF]
J Anim Sci, 2018 Three ruminally fistulated Xuanhan steers weighting 312.5 (±23.85) kg were used to determine the kinetics of ruminal degradation of nutrients using in situ nylon bag technique, and a modified 3-step in vitro procedure was adopted to estimate intestinal ...

Intestinal starch and energy digestibility in broiler chickens fed diets supplemented with α-amylase
Poultry Science, 2020 Dietary starch is the major energy source for broiler chickens; therefore, relevant information on its intestinal utilization is important. The present study was designed to evaluate intestinal starch and energy digestibility of broiler chickens fed ...

Exploring diet effects on the profile, excretion and enterohepatic circulation of bile acids in the chicken [PDF]
Poultry ScienceBeyond their role in lipid digestion, the physiological function, distribution and composition of bile acids (BAs) in poultry remain insufficiently understood. We investigated bile acid metabolism in broiler chickens as well as laying hens in response to

Effects of Yarrowia lipolytica supplementation on growth performance, intestinal health and apparent ileal digestibility of diets fed to nursery pigs [PDF]
Animal Bioscience, 2022 Objective The objective was to evaluate the efficacy of increasing supplementation of Yarrowia lipolytica (YL) up to 3.0% replacing 1.6% poultry fat and 0.9% blood plasma for growth performance, intestinal health and nutrient digestibility of diets fed ...
