1Values for standardized ileal digestibility were calculated by correcting the values for apparent ileal digestibility for basal ileal endogenous losses. Basal endogenous losses were determined (g/kg of DM) as CP, 16.39; Arg, 0.55; His, 0.55; Iso, 0.18; Leu, 0.35; Lys, 0.54; Met, 0.36; Phe, 0.10; Thr, 0.35; Trp, 0.58; Val, 0.10; Ala, 0.62; Asp, 0.63; Cys, 0.70; Glu, 0.20; Gly, 0.96; Pro, 1.53; Ser, 5.15; and Tyr, 0.50.
