Effects of Dietary Taurine on the Abdominal Fat Weight and Serum and Liver Concentrations of Cholesterol in Broiler Chicks

摘要: Effects of dietary taurine on the abdominal fat weight and serum liver concentrations cholesterol were investigated with male broiler chicks. One-day old chicks allocated to one three supplemented diets: 0 (control), 1 2%. Body gain fed diet 2% decreased by 6% compared control (P0.05). However, feed conversion ratio was not different among treatments. Liver body showed no difference Abdominal weights lower in 1% supplementations 14% 20%, respectively, than that Serum triglyceride, glucose, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase pyruvic total higher 10% 12%, Also HDL-cholesterol increased 20% 34%, Concentrations supplementation 9% 13%, 1.0% 2.0% 38%, These results storage cavity affected metabolism
