1996
Peric, L.
The aim of this work was to compare utilization of phosphorus from four sources: dicalcium phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, monoammonium phosphate and phosphonal. As the criteria for assessment of utilization of phosphorus the production characteristics, Ca and P content in the blood, ash content, Ca and P in bones and firmness of bones have been used. It was started from the prediction that different sources of phosphorus will not have more significant effect on the production performance, blood and bone parameters, but the effect on bone firmness is expected. It was found that there were no significant differences between the phosphorus sources using any one of the criteria mentioned. It may be concluded that dicalcium phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, monoammonium phosphate and phosphoral are high quality and highly utilizable sources of phosphorus, which may be successfully used in nutrition of broilers.
