Description

An experiment was conducted to evaluate excretion tendency of zinc in feces and urine with 8 goats groups fed with diet I (basal diet + 65Zn-Met) and diet II (basal diet + 65ZnSo4) respectively. The results showed that 65Zn concentration in feces of the goats fed with diet I was lower than that of the goats fed with diet II, and the absorptivity of zinc from Zn-Met was significantly higher than that from 65ZnSO4(P<0.05)
