Evaluation of urinary creatinine excretion to estimate in vivo body composition of Belgian Blue double-muscled bulls

Urinary creatinine excretion (UCE) and chemical body composition of 18 Belgian Blue double-muscled bulls were determined. Partly due to the large fasted live weight (fLW) range ($308-710$ kg), kg water and protein in the empty body were quite accurately predicted (adjR$^2$ = 0.94 and 0.97) by UCE. T...
