This chapter has implemented new sections that include sources of amino acids, bioavailability of D-amino acids, amino acid analysis of feedstuffs and physiological fluids, amino acid deficiencies, and empirical methodology to estimate amino acid requirements and ratios in poultry. In addition, classification of amino acids, variation in amino acid requirements, special amino acid relationships, and imbalance, antagonism, and toxicity have been expanded from the 1994 NRC publication.
