Growth performance, carcass characteristics, ileal microbiota, and amino acid digestibility of broilers fed diets varying in supplemental copper concentrations and amino acid density from 1 to 32 d of age1

Summary: Two experiments were designed to determine interactive effects of supplemental dietary Cu and amino acid (AA) density on growth performance, processing characteristics, ileal microflora, and AA digestibility of broilers. In experiment 1, 8 dietary treatments were used, consisting of a facto...
