Effects of dietary β‐alanine supplementation on growth performance, meat quality, carnosine content, amino acid composition and muscular antioxidant capacity in Chinese indigenous Ningxiang pig
Abstractβ-alanine has been demonstrated to improve carcass traits and meat quality of animals. However, no research has been found on the effects of dietaryβ-alanine in the meat quality control of finishing pigs, which are among the research focus. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietaryβ-alanine supplementation on growth performance, meat quality, carnosine content, amino acid composition  and muscular antioxidant capacity of Chinese indigenous Ningxiang pigs. The treatments contained a basal diet (control, CON) and a basal diet supplemented with 600 mg/kgβ-alanine. Each treatment group consi...

Intake of energy, protein, amino acids  and minerals by dogs under energy restriction for body weight loss when fed with commercial weight loss diets
AbstractThis retrospective study evaluated energy and nutrient intake of dogs in a weight loss programme. Ninety-four obese dogs were divided into three groups: G5 –15: from 5% to 15% body weight (BW) loss (n = 55); G155–25: from 15.1% to 25% BW loss (n = 29); and G >  25: more than 25.1% BW loss (n = 10). Five brands of kibble diets designed for weight loss were analysed for crude protein, amino acids, fat, dietary fibre, and minerals. The food metabolizable energy (ME) was estimated (NRC, 2006). Data were compared inside each group using the pairedt test and between groups with analysis of variance...
