The present invention relates to a system and method for analyzing animal feed. Specifically, the present invention relates to an in vitro system and method for analyzing animal feed for nutrient metabolism and energy source. Most animal feeds aim to provide at least the minimum requirements of nutrients to sustain the animals that receive them. Livestock (eg cattle, pigs, poultry, fish, etc.) have been selected for special characteristics such as growth, leanness, and metabolic efficiency over the past 20-50 years. |
