IntroductionInert digestibility index markers are the anchor of many feeding trials designed to analyse nutrient utilisation and amino acid digestibility along the gastrointestinal tract of animals. Marker use is widely accepted as a method less laborious than total tract retention.Additionally, it enables the determination of digestibility along intestinal sections in ruminant and non-ruminant an ...

IntroductionThere are four forms of phytic acid (inositol hexakisphosphate, InsP6), which have been identified in nature, myo, neo-, scyllo- and D-chiro-, that differ in their stereochemical conformation (Fig. S1) and association with metal ions as phytates in different soils (Turner et al., 2002). Among these, myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6) garners the most attention from plant scientists. ...
