“…Since hot carcass weights were similar, the final weights were inversely mirrored by dressing percentages ( [9,14,19,25] and increase in lean or muscle percentage [14,25] [12]. The numerical but non-significant elevated plasma urea N concentrations with increasing Cr levels at tO and t2 are consistent with this hypothesis.…”

“…For the overall experimental period, the daily gain of the C200 pigs was 5.9 % higher compared to the pigs of treatment C (P < 0.06), whereas daily gain of the pigs fed higher amounts of Cr was similar to treatment C. There was a quadratic response in daily feed intake (P < 0.10) in the growing period. In the finishing period, the feed conversion ratio (FCR) was 7.4 % (P < 0.06) and in the overall experimental period it was 6.1 % (P < 0.05) lower [19] observed lower daily feed intakes but no effect on daily gain in finishing pigs supplied 200 ppb CrP compared to those provided with 0, 100 and 400 ppb. In contrast, Page et al [25] reported a linear decline in both daily gain and feed intake with an increasing dietary CrP level (0, 100, 200, 400, 800 ppb CrP).…”

-An experiment with 40 pigs (24.5 kg initial and 105.5 kg final live weight) was conducted to investigate the effects of supplemented trivalent chromium (Cr) from chromium yeast on growth performance, carcass composition, fatty acid profile of the carcass fat, and blood parameters both after a 24-h fasting period and 2 h after feeding. Ten pigs per treatment were fed a barley-wheat-soybean meal diet supplemented with either 0 (C), 200 (C200), 400 (C400) or 800 ppb Cr (C800) at a restricted feeding scale. Pigs receiving the C200 treatment showed both improved average daily gains and feed conversion ratios compared to those receiving treatment C for the total experiment (P <

“…Dietary Cr supplementation has been shown to positively affect the growth rate and food efficiency in growing poultry [12,21,36]. In most of the cases, beneficial effects were obtained in poultry and swine species when Cr concentration in the diet was within a range of 100 to 400 ppb [17,24,25].…”

A total of 250 broilers in a completely randomized design selected to evaluate the effect of different levels of chromium (Cr) supplementation on performance, carcass traits and some blood parameters of heat-stressed broiler chicks. All birds were kept under heat stress temperature (33 ± 3°C) and divided into five treatments groups. Each treatment consisted of five pens with 10 birds in each pen. The basal diets were supplemented with 0 ppb (control), 800 ppb Cr-L-Met (T(1)), 1,200 ppb Cr-L-Met (T(2)) or 800 ppb CrCl(3) (T(3)), and 1,200 ppb CrCl(3) (T(4)). The feed intake and body mass were measured at 10, 21, and 42 days of age. Blood samples were collected from two birds in each replicates to determine biological and hematological values at 28 and 42 days of age. There were no significant difference in mass gain and feed conversion of broilers that received Cr supplementations compared with controls. The serum glucose concentration decreased in broilers received organic chromium methionine supplements compared with other treatments groups. Slight but not significant increases were observed in serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) concentration of treated groups than controls while the mean serum HDL concentration was significantly higher in T(2) group compared with control group. Serum low-density lipoprotein level decreased in broiler received organic Cr supplements (p < 0.05).

“…However, Kim et al [23] reported in broiler chicks, supplementing the Cr picolinate in the diets decreased fat content of the carcass. The Cr has been found to exert inhibitory effects on in vitro lipogenic activity in chick and pig adipose tissue [23,24] . However Lambert and Jacqumin [25] reported insulin inhibits gluconeogenesis and depresses adipocyte lipolysis by reducing the activities of adenylate cyclase and hormone-sensitive lipase.…”
