Methodische Untersuchungen zum Eiweißumsatz und zur Bioenergetik des Eiweißansatzes bei wachsenden Tieren

The authors used the empirical equations of mathematical modelling for the energy and protein balance simulation, with the view of calculating the body weight gain in broilers fed various diets. The results found by using the model were compared with the experimental data obtained by several authors. A standard deviation of +/- 1.20% and a mean error of +/- 0.28% and a mean error of +/- 0.28% which proved that the model average was a sufficient estimate of the experimental average were found. Furthermore, using the regression method, a significant correlation of variables was evidentiated.

In 3 successive experiments with growing rats the suitability of pulse labelling with [15N]glycine, linked with a 14C labelling by means of [14C]lysine (experiment 3), was tested for the determination of kinetic parameters of the protein metabolism of the whole body by the application of the compartment model in comparison with pulse labelling with a 15N amino acid mixture (experiment 2) and long-time labelling with 15N with 15N labelled wheat in the feed (experiment 1) under standardized experiment conditions. In simultaneously carried out measurings of energy metabolism with parallel groups of animals the comparability of the metabolic development was studied. The ascertained values of protein synthesis rate, protein catabolism rate and re-utilization rate showed insignificant differences only between the 3 15N tracer variants (with certain limitations for the 'protein turnover' (P)-group of experiment 2) in comparison with errors of the applied methods, from which conclusions can be drawn for the suitability of [15N] glycine as tracer, at least under the experiment conditions tested. The protein synthesis and degradation rates ascertained from 14CO2 excretion in experiment 3 were clearly below those average values ascertained with 15N. The differences in the average heat production between the main periods of the 3 experiments were statistically insignificant.

7 experiments with 6 chickens each (origin Tetra B) in the live weight range between greater than 100 and less than 300 g and up to 1800 g were carried out at environmental temperatures (ET) of 35, 30, 25 (2 experiments) 20 (2 experiments) and 15 degrees C. In the course of each experiment the chickens alternatively received feed mixtures containing 20 and 40% crude protein (3 animals/variant) for maintenance and weight gain (semi ad libitum). Energy metabolism was measured according to indirect calorimetry over a total of 645 metabolism periods. In the temperature range studied there was no compensation between thermoregulatory heat and heat from other metabolic processes. The partial utilization of metabolizable energy for energy retention in the body was independent of ET and remained in the limits between 71 and 73%. Energy utilization was dependent on the protein content of the feed. It decreased from 75 to 69% with the increase of the protein content from 20 to 40%. Energy requirement for protein retention varied between 1.67 and 1.89 kJ metabolizable energy/kJ and was independent of ET. Energy requirement (metabolizable energy) for the maintenance of the energy balance was independent of the protein content of the feed. It increased from 433 kJ/kg LW0.75.d at 35 degrees C to 693 kJ/kg LW0.75.d at 15 degrees C ET. The relationship between heat production and ET is parabolic. The thermoneutral temperature decreased from 35 to 25 degrees C in the course of development. In the live weight range of 300-500 g thermoregulatory heat production had its maximum with 19 kJ/kg LW0.75.d.K and decreased in the further development to 10-13 kJ/kg LW0.75.d.K.
