Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the impact of extrusion and sieving on the chemical properties of palm kernel cake (PKC) and assessed the effects on metabolizable energy and protein digestibility in chickens.
- PKC was treated using different temperatures for extrusion and various particle sizes for sieving, which showed a significant reduction in crude fiber content but varying effects on amino acids.
- The results indicated that extrusion improved metabolizable energy by 6% and increased protein digestibility by 32%, while sieving did not affect energy but enhanced protein digestibility by 39%.
