Two experiments were conducted to study the accuracy of predicting true metabolizable energy (TME) of ingredients for ducks from in vitro digestible energy (IVDE) determined with a computer-controlled simulated digestion system.

Metabolizable energy and true digestibility of the protein of extruded of bakery by - products (bread wastes) in balanced experiments with poultry [PDF]
Using methods for balance experiments, the apparent (AMEn), the true (TMEn) metabolizable energy (0-n balance corrected) and the coefficient of true digestibility of the nitrogen/protein (CTDP) of extruded bread wastes have been studied.

Effects of Enzyme Treated Palm Kernel Expeller on Metabolizable Energy, Growth Performance, Villus Height and Digesta Viscosity in Broiler Chickens [PDF]
This study examined whether pre-treating palm kernel expeller (PKE) with exogenous enzyme would degrade its fiber content; thus improving its metabolizable energy (ME), growth performance, villus height and digesta viscosity in broiler chickens fed diets

Abstract Comparisons were made between the repeatability of true metabolizable energy (TME) and nitrogen corrected TME (TMEn) values for yellow corn and dehulled soybean meal (SBM). Seven samples of each ingredient were evaluated twice for TME and TMEn content.

True Metabolizable Energy of Corn Fractions
Abstract A series of studies was conducted to determine the relative metabolizable energy content of whole corn kernels, broken corn (BC), and foreign material (FM). Samples of yellow corn were obtained from eight different trains and separated into the three fractions which were assayed for proximate composition and nitrogen corrected true ...

Apparent and true metabolizable energy values of feedstuffs for ducks
Two experiments were conducted, each with 24 White Pekin ducks, to determine the AME and TME content of five feedstuffs for ducks. In each experiment, fasting losses were obtained from six ducks and six ducks were used for each feedstuff. Each experiment lasted 102 h with an initial 48-h period and a 54-h excreta collection period.

Samples of 35 diets were obtained from five different regions of Canada. The true metabolizable energy (TME) of these diets was measured with mature White Leghorn cockerels. The N-corrected apparent metabolizable energy (MEn) values, calculated from average analysis figures, were supplied by the feed manufacturers.

An Evaluation of the Nitrogen Correction in the True Metabolizable Energy Assay
This paper examined the effect of N-correction on the true metabolizable energy (TME) values of mixed diets and single ingredients using mature White Leghorn roosters. The N-corrected TME (TMEn) values were consistently higher than the corresponding TME values, the results being significant (P less than .05) in about one-half of the samples tested ...

True Metabolizable Energy of Dried Bakery Product
Abstract Twenty-six samples of dried bakery product (DBP) were obtained from commercial sources and were evaluated for their proximate composition and TMEn content. Among the samples, marked variations were noted in ash, fiber, ether extract, and TMEn content. An equation to predict the TMEn content from the proximate composition was developed: TMEn (

Estimation and modeling true metabolizable energy of sorghum grain for poultry
Sorghum grain is an important ingredient in poultry diets. The TMEn content of sorghum grain is a measure of its quality. As for the other feed ingredients, the biological procedure used to determine the TMEn value of sorghum grain is costly and time consuming.
