- IF, insoluble fibre; SF, soluble fibre; DM, dry matter; OM, organic matter (calculated as 100Â % - ash%); TDF, total dietary fibre; NFE, nitrogen-free extract; ME, metabolizable energy
-
aNFE (% DM) was calculated as 100 - crude protein - crude fat - crude ash - crude fibre, with all components on DM basis
-
bME was calculated as ((((5.7 x g protein) + (9.4 x g fat) + (4.1 x (g NFE + g fibre))) x (91.2 - (1.43 x % CF in DM)) /100) - (1.04 x g protein))/1000 [14]
