Thiourea and methionine effects upon glucose and leucine absorption in chicken jejunum

R Giurgea et al. Rev Roum Physiol (1990). 1991 Jan-Jun.

Abstract

Administration of a unique dose of thiourea (7 mg per kg b.w.) in the 7th day of life to broiler chickens affects in different manners the jejunal absorption of glucose and that of leucine. Methionine supplementation of the fodder (1.5 g per kg) during 40 days affects--in an age-dependent manner--the glucose absorption, but not that of leucine.
