Abstract

Effects of Guanidinoacetic Acid on Lean Growth and Methionine Flux in Cattle

Highlights

  • Creatine serves as an energy source for muscles by storing energy in high-energy phosphate bonds

  • Responses to guanidinoacetic acid for lean tissue deposition were dependent on the methionine status of the steers

  • When methionine was supplemented to steers, there was an increase in nitrogen retention when 15 g/day of guanidinoacetic acid was provided

Summary

Introduction

Creatine serves as an energy source for muscles by storing energy in high-energy phosphate bonds. C. (2020) "Effects of Guanidinoacetic Acid on Lean Growth and Methionine Flux in Cattle," Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports: Vol 6: Iss. 2. Abstract Objective: To evaluate the effect of supplementing guanidinoacetic acid in the presence or absence of Lmethionine on nitrogen retention (lean tissue growth) when cattle were purposefully maintained under conditions of a methionine deficiency.
