This International Standard defines predictive equations for the determination of metabolizable energy in
• Milk substitutes and liquid products for enteral nutrition
• Complete foods for cats and dogs with a crude fibre content of less than 80g/kg dry matter
The predictive equations provided in this standard constitute simple tools to be used by manufacturers, experts, official labs and by control authorities to calculate ME by using values of dietary components determined by validated official methods (Regulation 152/2009).
