A note comparing the apparent metabolisable energy of three oil sources and their combination in broiler chickens

Apparent metabolisable energy (AME) of palm oil (PO), soybean oil (SO), linseed oil (LO) and blend oil (BO) in a ratio of 4:1:1 were evaluated. A total of 75, 21-day-old birds were fed corn-soy basal diet and the four test diets containing different oil sources (PO, SO, LO and BO), that were develop...

Description
Summary:Apparent metabolisable energy (AME) of palm oil (PO), soybean oil (SO), linseed oil (LO) and blend oil (BO) in a ratio of 4:1:1 were evaluated. A total of 75, 21-day-old birds were fed corn-soy basal diet and the four test diets containing different oil sources (PO, SO, LO and BO), that were developed by replacing 60 g/kg of the basal diet for eight days. Differences in the apparent metabolisable energy were found (P<0.05), with the higher values for broiler-fed BO. This study affirmed that BO increases AME of oil enriched with saturated fatty acid in poultry diets.
