Effects of Assay Methodology and Standardization for Endogenous Losses of Energy on Determination and Additivity of Metabolizable and Digestible Dietary Energy for Broilers 

Philpot, Stephanie (2022-11-16)  ETD File Embargoed
Efficient broiler production requires providing birds with diets with appropriate energy density. A lack of additivity of dietary energy could lead to under- or over-supplying energy to broilers. Additivity may be affected ...

Effects of high dietary copper concentration on growth performance, processing characteristics, amino acid digestibility, and ileal microflora composition of broilers 

Philpot, Stephanie (2019-07-09)
Subtherapeutic antibiotics have been added to diets to improve growth performance of broilers. Pressure from the food service industry is reducing the use of this practice, so the broiler industry is evaluating alternatives ...
