Description
Summary:An abstract of a study by Chewning et al that investigated the role of dietary essential amino acid, nonessential amino acid, and electrolyte balance on these outcomes is presented. Among other things Chewning et al suggested that reduced performance of growing/finishing pigs fed reduce crude protein diets formulated to meet the His:Lys requirement without using feed grade His in previous studies may be attributed to improper AA:Lys ratios and not from total N or dietary electrolyte balance.
