With the objective to determine the methionine+cystine requirements, 1440 and 1080 commercial Hubbard broilers were used, 50% of each sex at the growing and finishing phases, respectively. Six supplemental levels of DL-methionine (.0, .06, .12, .18, .24, and .30%) were added to methionine+cystine deficient basal diets. Body weight gain, feed intake, feed:gain ratio, carcass yield and composition, abdominal fat and plasma uric acid concentration were evaluated from 22-42 and 43-56 days of age. Based on the statistical analysis of the […]
