1
Due to the 2 forms of corn (ground and flake) the first ingredient listed is soybean meal but corn is more abundant than soybean meal when both forms are accounted.
2
Estimated isoflavone concentrations (daidzein and genistein aglycone equivalents) were based on diet vendor quarterly testing and previously published levels (Thigpen et al., 2004, Jensen and Ritskes-Hoitinga, 2007)
3
Energy densities were calculated based on estimated metabolizable energy.
4
Fat levels were calculated based on ether extraction values for compressed pelleted diets and acid hydrolysis for the extruded diet T.2920X.
