Abstract

[Extract] Consumer market demand for lean meat continues to encourage research and development of lines of pig that produce lean mass quickly and efficiently. With genetic changes would come changes in the amounts, and ratios, of absorbed amino acids and glucose that would be required by these pigs to meet their potential for lean mass growth. This study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of using plasma concentration of urea as a basis of a quicker method for determining the amino acid and glucose requirements of new lines of pigs.
