The evaluation of amino acid profiles of Giant African Snail and Golden Apple Snail as poultry feed supplement

This study was conducted to determine an amino acid profile of two snail Pomacea canaliculata (Golden Apple Snail) and Achatina fulica (Giant African Snail). A 500 g of snails was collected at Bukit Expo, Universiti Putra Malaysia. The analysis of amino acid was conducted in Nutrition Laboratory, De...
