Manganese is a nutritionally important trace element for chicks. Dietary energy and protein sources contain very little bioavailable Mn, and these feed ingredients reduce the biopotency of inorganic Mn supplements. This adverse effect is exerted primarily in the intestine as a result of reduced Mn absorption and is mediated by the fiber and/or ash components of the feedstuffs. Gut absorption efficiencies are higher when a phytate-and fiber-free casein-dextrose diet is fed than when a corn-soybean meal diet is fed. Dietary i n terrelationships exist between Mn and Co and between Mn and Fe. Cobalt increases Mn absorption and may precipitate Mn toxicosis. Excess dietary Mn reduces Fe u t i l i z a t i o n , but excess Fe does not affect Mn utilization. Eimeria acervulina infection increases Mn absorption.

The mechanism by which t h i s r e d u c t i o n i n a v a i l a b i l i t y occurs was r e c e n t l y e v a l u a t e d ( 9 ) .

T i s s u e Mn l e v e l s decreased with t i m e , but wheat bran d i d not a f f e c t r a t e o f t i s s u e Mn d e p l e t i o n . Thus, wheat bran d i d not a f f e c t homeostasis o f s t o r e d Mn.
