¹ Two additional test diets were mixed using above 2 basal diets with corresponding optimal carbohydrase mixtures, respectively. ² CSM, corn-soybean meal-based diet; WSM, wheat-soybean meal-based diet. ³ Provided the following quantities per kilogram of diet: vitamin A, 8250 IU; vitamin D₃, 825 IU; vitamin E, 40 IU; menadione, 4 mg; biotin, 0.2 mg; choline chloride, 600 mg; folic acid, 2 mg; niacin, 35 mg; _D-pantothenate, 15 mg; riboflavin, 5.0 mg; thiamin, 1.0 mg; pyridoxine, 2.0 mg; cobalamine, 25 μg; Cu, 50.0 mg as copper sulfate; I, 0.5 mg as potassium iodide; Fe, 80 mg as iron sulfate; Mn, 25.0 mg manganous oxide; Se, 0.15 mg as sodium selenite; and Zn, 100.0 mg as zinc sulfate. ⁴ Carbohydrate = dry matter − (crude protein + ether extract + ash). ⁵ AA, amino acid.
