Protein and energy relations in the broiler chicken. 8. Comparison involving protein- and lysine-adequate and inadequate diets on lipid metabolism
1990
Chickens were fed on diets containing either 12.8 MJ, 150 g crude protein (nitrogen X 6.25)/kg or 12.8 MJ, 200 g crude protein/kg to determine differences in metabolism. The diet containing 12.8 MJ, 150 g crude protein/kg contained either 8 or 12 g lysine/kg. Treatment variables examined in vitro were lipogenesis, glucose production and hepatic enzyme activities to compare metabolism in chicks fed on a low-protein, lysine-supplemented diet and a diet formulated to contain the required amount of lysine from intact protein. Growth was similar in chicks fed on diets containing either 12.8 MJ, 154 g crude protein with 12 g lysine/kg or 12.8 MJ, 200 g crude protein/kg. Net glucose production was greater (P < 0.05) in liver explants from chickens fed on diets containing either 12.8 MJ, 154 g crude protein with 12 g lysine/kg or 12.8 MJ, 200 g crude protein/kg than in explants from chickens fed on 12.8 MJ, 150 g crude protein with 8 g lysine/kg. Pyruvate use for glucose production was greater (P < 0.05) in chickens fed on a diet containing 12.8 MJ, 150 g crude protein with 8 g lysine/kg. The findings from the present study suggest that crystalline and 'natural' lysine additions to chick diets may influence metabolism differently.
