Il est possible de mesurer l'énergie perdue par les gaz formés au cours des fermentations digestives et dans l'urine. Ces pertes soustraites à l'énergie digestible, permettent de déterminer l'énergie métabolisable qui représente environ de 40 à 70 % de l'énergie brute de l'aliment. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20m%C3%A9tabolisable
