Forty eight broilers were placed in individual cages and randomly allocated into 4 dietary treatments. Birds consumed 80 g d1 of either a typical commercial diet or the same diet in which 100, 200 or 300 g kg^-1 had been substituted by ground FBS. The experiment lasted 15 d. Apparent and true CP bioavailability of FBS were significantly decreased (P 〈 0.05) only at the inclusion rate of 300 g kg-1. AA bioavailability remained at high levels (-0.80) with the exception of cystine and was similar to CP mean. The mean AME and TMEn values of FBS were estimated equal to 11.1 and 11.4 MJ ME kg^-1, respectively.展开更多

Forty eight broilers were placed in individual cages and randomly allocated into 4 dietary treatments. Birds consumed 80 g/d of either a typical commercial diet or the same diet in which 100, 200 or 300 g/kg had been substituted by ground FPS. The experiment lasted 15 d. Apparent and true CP bioavailability of FPS were significantly decreased (P 〈 0.05) only at the inclusion rate of 300 g/kg. AA bioavailability remained at high levels (-0.80), with the exception of methionine and valine and was similar to CP mean. The mean AME and TMEn values of FPS were estimated equal to 10.8 and 11.0 MJ ME/kg, respectively.展开更多
