A total of 576 d-old, male, broiler chicks were used in two trials 1) to determine the range of Ca and P levels over which the response in bone characteristics is linear and 2) to determine the influence of particle size of defluorinated rock phosphate (DFP) on the bioavailability of Ca and P in DFP. Six treatments were used in Experiment 1 in which varying percentages of added Ca (.00, .06, .12, .24, .36, and .48%) and added P (.00, .05, .10, .20, .30, and .40%) were evaluated in a corn-soybean meal diet containing 23% CP, .47% Ca, and .39% P (.14% available P). Weight gain, feed intake, and tibia breaking strength increased (P less than .001) with increasing levels of dietary Ca and P. Treatments in Experiment 2 consisted of: 1) Diet 1, a corn-soybean meal basal diet (23% CP, .50% Ca, .46% P, .21% available P), 2) Diet 1 with .12% added Ca from calcium carbonate (CC) and .07% added P from monosodium phosphate (MSP), 3) Diet 1 with .24% added Ca from CC and .14% added P from MSP; and 4 to 8), Diet 1 with .24% added Ca and .14% added P from five particle sizes of DFP. Feed intake, weight gain, and tibia breaking strength and ash percentage increased linearly (P less than .01) and feed:gain ratio decreased quadratically (P less than .10) with increasing percentages of added Ca and P in Diets 1 to 3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D011897 Random Allocation A process involving chance used in therapeutic trials or other research endeavor for allocating experimental subjects, human or animal, between treatment and control groups, or among treatment groups. It may also apply to experiments on inanimate objects. Randomization,Allocation, Random
D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
