Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
B.W. Parsons' research focuses on animal nutrition and physiology, particularly in the area of nutrient digestibility and bioavailability in feedstuffs. Recent publications investigate the metabolizable energy and amino acid digestibility in spray-dried animal plasma, as well as phytic acid disappearance and phosphorus digestibility in various feed ingredients like soybean meal, canola meal, and distillers dried grains with solubles. Parsons also examines the quantification of endogenous amino acid losses and the evaluation of precision-fed rooster assays for determining nutrient bioavailability. Collaborations include work with R.L. Drysdale at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, resulting in four shared publications. Parsons has an h-index of 5 with 13 total publications and 38 total citations.
