Metabolic profiles were studied in 24 Muscovy duck males and 24 Common duck females at 35 days and at the characteristics slaughtering age for each species (57 days and 78 days for common duck and Muscovy duck, respectively) Both species of ducks were differently fed (diet C: a commercial diet, corn-soya based; diet A: corn replaced by low tannin sorghum; diet B: corn replaced by a mixture of low and high tannin sorghum). results showed that glucose, triglycerides and albumin were higher while total proteins were lower in Common ducks fed the diets containing sorghum. Glucose level, cholesterol and NEFA were higher in Muscovy ducks fed the diets containing sorghum.

Abstract

Metabolic profiles were studied in 24 Muscovy duck males and 24 Common duck females at 35 days and at the characteristics slaughtering age for each species (57 days and 78 days for common duck and Muscovy duck, respectively) Both species of ducks were differently fed (diet C: a commercial diet, corn-soya based; diet A: corn replaced by low tannin sorghum; diet B: corn replaced by a mixture of low and high tannin sorghum). results showed that glucose, triglycerides and albumin were higher while total proteins were lower in Common ducks fed the diets containing sorghum. Glucose level, cholesterol and NEFA were higher in Muscovy ducks fed the diets containing sorghum.
