One experiment was carried out using 120 laying Isa Brown chickens fed diets containing sugar-cane yeast, to determinate the methionine+cystine (met+cys) requirements. The birds were 51 weeks old at the beginning of the experiment, with the duration of 84 days, with three periods of 28 days each. A completely randomized block design with five treatments and four replications was used. The treatments consisted of a basal diet supplemented with five levels of DL-methionine in order to obtain diets with 0.45, […]
