Effects of L-alanine injection and post-hatch deprivation of feed and water on glycogen reserves in turkey poults
1993
Donaldson, W.E. | Christensen, V.L.
1. Glycogen concentration (mg/g) in liver, epiphyseal bone (proximal femoral chondyle) and toe (first medial phalanges) declined during post-hatch holding of poults for up to 72 hr without feed and water. 2. Muscle (gastrocnemius) glycogen concentration was unchanged by post-hatch holding. 3. Glycogen concentration (mg/g) in the whole body was unchanged while whole body glycogen (total mg) content was decreased by holding. 4. Injections of 1 ml of 1 M L-alanine did not enhance whole body glycogen stores.
