The Interaction Between Dietary Valine and Tryptophan Content and Their Effect on the Performance of Piglets

摘要

Simple SummaryTo optimize animal performance, pig diets need the right amount of all essential amino acids. Usually, the ideal amino acid profile is used: If the dietary concentration of one particular amino acid is too low, other amino acids will not be used efficiently. In this experiment it was shown that amino acids that stimulate the feed intake may improve the performance of pigs, even if other amino acids are not at the optimal level.
