An Assay of Nutritional Compositions in The Organism of Lady Amherst's Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae)

  • During our study of the wild and the captivity of grown-up Lady amhersts pheasant,we assaied nutritional compositions of some organs,tissues and eggs.By means of this method,we discerned that the protein of thigh muscles of captivity was 11% higher than that of the wild,but the breast muscles of the former was 26% lower than that of the latter.The amino acid content in the breast muscle,thigh muscle and blood of the captivity were all higher than those of the wild:They had 25.24% & 22.60%,23.22% & 21.83%,22.41% & 17.73% respectively,But the liver was exceptional,the former had 24.26% and the latr tehad 26.02%.As for the carbohydrate contents the captivity had more than the wild,for example,breast muscle:0.262% & 0.186%,thigh muscle:0.238% & 0.191%,Liver:4.747% & 0.785%.We also analysed 12 kinds of elements and 4 kinds of vitamins on the pheasant.
