In order to study the effect of dietary krill meal on the performance and the utilization of protein and energy, broiler chicks fed on the experimental diets containing 0.0%, 0.5% and 1.0% krill meal, respectively, and injected Salmonella typhimurium lipopolysacharide(LPS) (Immunological stress) in 2nd week of age during 3 weeks of experimental period. Dietary krill meal did not affect daily gain and feed efficiency but the immunological stress lowered daily gain and feed intake and nitrogen balance and increased liver and spleen weight and the energy utilization of bird. The uric acid excretion was accelerated by immunological stress.

Effects of Salmonella typhimurium lipopolysacharide(LPS) and dietary krill meal on the Growth and feed utilization were investigated in broiler chicks. Eight cages of five newly hatched chicks each were assigned and fed to one of the experimental diets containing 0.0,(basal) 0.5 or 1.0% krill meal during 3 weeks of experimental period. And half(four) of the eight cages were i.p. injected with saline or LPS(Immune response activation) every alternate day three times beginning 8 day-old during 2 week of age. Dietary krill meal did not affect growth, feed efficiency, nitrogen balance(NB), uric acid excretion, and ME utilization when the saline was injected. However, the immune response activation lowered daily gain and feed intake and NB and increased uric acid excretion, and the relative liver and spleen weight. Also, birds fed diet containing krill meal 1.0% reduced the feed efficiency and increased spleen weight, and ME and NB or ME required for gain compared with those fed basal and krill meal 0.5% diets in LPS-injected chicks. During recovery period from the immunological stress in 3rd week of age, the krill meal diet reduced the weight of liver and spleen, The results showcd that dietary krill meal did not affect the growth of broiler chicks, but the higher uric acid excretion or dietary ME value indicated the increased protein decomposition or absorption of dietary energy sources in immune response activated birds.

계사내 공기중의 암모니아 농도 감소 목적으로 식물 기원 소화율 촉진제(phytogenic digestibility enhancer) 사용이 가능하다. 이 소화율 촉진제는 사료 설계 명세서 내 특정 성분(조단백질)을 감소시키고 영양소 이용성을 개선하여 동물생산성을 향상시키기 때문이다. 조단백질 함량이 낮은 사료 급여는 가금에게 적정 요구량 이상 흡수된 단백질(excess protein)의 뇨산(尿酸 : uric acid) 전환에 에너지를 소비하지 않아서 열역학적 이점(熱力學的 利點 : energetic advantage)이 있고, 이 에너지는 유익한 성장에 사용이 가능하도록 존재한다. 더욱이 동물 사료 중 조 단백질 1%는 약 3% 더 많은 물의 섭치가 필요하고, 그 중 80%는 다시 배설되므로 단백질 함량 적정화 사료들(protein optimized diets)은 음수 요구량을 감소시킨다. 이러한 단백질 적정화 사료는 동물 사육업자들에게 관심의 대상으로 명확한 경제적 이득이 발생한다.
