The objective of this work was to study the calcium metabolism in growing equines receiving diets with different calcium levels. Twelve male were used, with average age of twelve months and average alive weight of 221,0 kg. The treatments consisted of three diets, composed for increasing calcium levels (low = 0.15%-N15; standard = 0.45%-N45; high = 0.75%-N75), and standard phosphorus level (0.23%). Each animal was injected, through the right jugular vein, the volumes of a syringe, which corresponded to about […]
