Abstract

Tables of values (mean values of 5 replicates) are given for the arginine, histidine, lysine, tryptophan, phenylalanine, methionine, threonine, leucine, isoleucine and valine content of duck eggs, White Leghorn and country-type hens' eggs and meat from White Leghorn and country-type chickens. The eggs of country-type hens contained significantly more threonine and valine than those of White Leghorn hens. Duck eggs contained significantly more lysine, phenylalanine and leucine and less arginine, methionine and valine than hens' eggs. Meat from White Leghorn birds contained significantly more phenylalanine, leucine, isoleucine and valine, and less arginine and lysine than meat from the country-type hens.
