1Soybean meal, dehulled solvent extracted mean and standard deviation values were obtained from NRC (2012).

2Yellow dent corn mean and standard deviation values were obtained from NRC (2012).

3IV = calculated iodine value of extracted lipid = (C16:1 × 0.9976) + (C18:1 × 0.8985) + (C18:2 × 1.8099) + (C18:3 × 2.7345) + (C20:1 × 0.8173) + (C20:4 × 3.3343) + (C20:5 × 4.1956) + (C22:1 × 0.7496) + (C22:5 × 3.8395) + (C22:6 × 4.6358) (NRC, 2012).

4IVP = calculated IV product of extracted lipid = (IV of ingredient EE) × (% of EE in the ingredient) × (0.1) (NRC, 2012).
