Purified lignin in the diet of feedlot lambs and the effects on performance, carcass and meat quality
This study aimed to establish the optimal concentration of purified Kraft lignin (PKL) in the diet of finishing lambs. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design, with four diets and LKR concentrations of 0, 6, 12, and 18 g/kg DM, with eight Poll Dorset × Texel crossbred lambs per treatment. The experiment was conducted with newly weaned lambs, aged 60 ± 10 days, with an average initial body weight of 23 ± 5 kg. The animals were [...]
