Glucose tolerance and insulin response to intravenous glucose load in sheep fed on germinated sorghum grain.(Report)

Asian - Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences | October 1, 2007| | Copyright

ABSTRACT : The glucose tolerance and pancreatic insulin secretion response to glucose in sheep fed on germinated sorghum grain were determined using an intravenous glucose load. Twelve male Thin Tail sheep (an Indonesian native sheep, 12 months old and 14.8 kg average body weight) were divided randomly into sorghum grain-based (S), germinated sorghum grain-based (G) and maize grain-based (C) diets. Sheep were maintained at the same daily intake levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein in the diets throughout the experimental period. After two months of the ...
