Summary

Body-weight gain, protein efficiency ratio (PER), standardized protein efficiency ratio (Std PER) and gross protein value (GPV, GPV1 and GPV2) bioassays were compared with nitrogen incorporation efficiency (NTE) for their accuracy and precision to determine protein quality of fish meal (FM), groundnut cake (GN), mustard cake (MS) and cottonseed cake (CS) for poultry. Results showed that all the bioassays were significantly (P < 0·05) correlated with NIE and were equally effective in ranking the samples of FM, GN, MS and CS according to their protein quality although body-weight gain procedure was less sensitive.
