Effects of Choline, Gelatin and Creatine on Perosis in Chicks

Thomas H. Jukes

Open publisher page 17 citations

Abstract

In contrast to turkeys, chicks on a simplified diet, deficient in choline, did not develop perosis unless gelatin or creatine was added. Choline prevented the perosis at a level of 0.1%, but lower levels were only partially effective. A possible explanation for the perosis-producing effect of gelatin or creatine is advanced.
