Dietary L-homoarginine has no lysine bioactivity in chicks
1994
Aoyagi, S. | Baker, D.H.
A chick growth assay was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary L-homoarginine supplementation on performance of chicks fed a Lys-deficient corn-feather meal diet. Weight gain, feed intake, and feed efficiency increased linearly (P < .01) as Lys was added at .1 and .2% from feed-grade L-Lys-HCl. Adding homoarginine at .2% resulted in less (P < .05) weight gain and feed intake than observed in chicks fed the unsupplemented basal diet. These data suggest that dietary homoarginine had no Lys bioactivity, but may also have antagonized Lys utilization from the basal diet.
