Abstract

The objective of this study was to compare the variation and additivity of gross energy (GE) measured in different laboratories, which will provide a reference for accurately determining effective energy value of feed. This experiment consisted of two parts. Part 1 was to investigate the effects of the feed sample volumes on the GE value determined by the oxygen bomb calorimeter. A single factor completely random design for sample volumes at 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 g was adopted for each of 6 feed ingredients (corn, soybean meal, wheat bran, soybean oil, rapeseed meal and cottonseed meal) and 10 diets. Each treatment contained 4 replicates. Part 2 was to investigate the variation and additivity of GE in feed determined in different laboratories. A single factor completely random design for 6 laborotaries was adopted for each feed. The GE of each sample was measured for 4 replicates in each laboratory. The results showed that the measured GE of 6 feed ingredients and 10 diets increased linearly and quadraticly with the increment of sample volumes (P<0.05). The measured GE values at sample volume of 0.2 g were lower than the GE values measured at sample volume of 0.4 to 1.0 g (P<0.05). Relatively little difference was observed in GE measured at sample volumes of 0.6 to 1.0 g. In the comparison among 6 laboratories, the absoute Z scores of 91 out of 96 measured GE were less than 2. The h statistics showed that the measured GE in laboratory 2 was lower, whereas the measured GE in laboratory 5 was higher than other laboratories. The k statistics showed that the variation of GE measured in laboratory 5 and 6 was relatively greater. In total, the coefficient of variation for repeatability, inter-laboratory and reproducibility of GE didn't exceed 0.64%. The paired t test showed that no significant differences between the calculated and measured GE of 10 diets were observed in each of laboratory 1, 3, 5 and 6. Whereas, significant differences between the calculated and measured GE of 10 diets were observed in each of laboratory 2 and 4 (P<0.05). The linear regression model of measured on calculated GE in each of 6 laboratories all overlaped with Y=X. This indicates that the loading volumes of sample for GE measurement using the oxygen bomb calorimeter should be more than 0.6 g. The GE value of feed measured in 6 laboratories show good consistency (94.8% satisfaction), and low coefficient of variation is observed in GE measured among laboratories. Higher and high additivity of dietary GE are present in laboratory 4 and 2, respectively.
