Animal Protein Sources General
For many years, animal by-products from the meat-, poultry-, and fish-processing industries have been used as a source of protein for food animal production. In general, animal protein sources contain highly digestible protein and their AA pattern is often similar to dietary needs. They are also an excellent source of many vitamins and minerals. Animal protein sources are, however, more variable than plant sources in terms of the nutrient content and quality because of the source of raw materials and heat processing used for dehydration and sterilization. Since the first diagnosis in the mid 1980s, there has been
