title: Rapeseed meal-glucosinolates and their antinutritional effects. Part 3. Animal growth and performance.
abstract: On the basis of literature data biological properties of rapeseed glucosinolates, and especially their influence on the growth and weight of animals were characterized. The aim was to determine a limiting value of these compounds in diets for particular animal species and age groups at which no limitation of growth or development was observed.
