Interpretive Summary: Digestibility of energy and nutrients in soybean expellers produced from conventional or high-oil varieties of soybeans and fed to growing pigs
Recently, a new variety of high-oil soybean patented as PHOTOSEED has been developed, but there are no data for the nutritional value of the de-oiled co-product from this variety. The hypothesis of this experiment was that the digestibility of energy and…

Interpretive Summary: Effects of dietary metabolizable energy density and inclusion of oxidized soybean oil on the growth performance, serum biochemical parameters, redox status, and wooden breast incidence of broilers
Dietary nutrients not only play a crucial role in growth and pectoralis muscle production of broilers but also are associated with the occurrence of pectoralis myopathies. Soybean oil is commonly added to animal diets to increase energy density.
