a

Complete feed with 88% DM, except milk replacer for veal calves (94.5% DM), and for cattle for fattening, dairy cows, dogs and cats for which the values are DM intake.

b

Complete feed containing 88% DM, milk replacer 94.5% DM.

c

The uncertainty factor for cats is increased by an additional factor of 5 because of the reduced capacity of glucuronidation.
