Abstract

Results are presented showing the effect of dietary bloodmeal on the porphyrin excretion of four mature normal steers. Bloodmeal causes a higher excretion in the faeces of copro- and chloroform soluble porphyrins. The coproporphyrin excretion of the urine is increased but no chloroform soluble porphyrins could, however, be detected in animals fed on bloodmeal.
