The first consisted of a metabolism assay using total excreta sampling method aiming to determine the apparent metabolizable energy corrected for nitrogen balance (AMEN). This assay was performed in two phases: 10?18 days (initial phase) and 25?33 days of age (growth phase). The broilers were alloted in a randomized design with two treatments (reference diet and reference diet + 80 g/kg of CG inclusion) and nine replications, with ten birds per cage. The AMEN was 2651 kcal/kg and 3013 kcal/kg, for the initial and growth phases, respectively. In the second experiment, 1600 Cobb 500 male broilers from 1 to 42 days were alloted in a randomized block experimental design, with 8 treatments and 8 replications of 25 birds per experimental unit, according to factorial arrangement (2 feed forms × 4 levels of CG: 0, 40, 80 and 120 g/kg). At 43 days of age, three birds from each cage were slaughtered to evaluate yield of carcass and cuts in each treatment. There was a quadratic effect (P &lt 0.01) on feed intake and weight gain of glycerin fed birds, but no difference in feed conversion (P&gt0.05). Carcass and cut weights presented quadratic behavior (P &lt 0.01), but regarding yield, only quadratic effect (P &lt 0.01) was observed for carcass, linear increase (P &lt 0.01) for wings and linear reduction (P &lt 0.01) for fat. Using CG improved weight gain. Up to 46.30 g/kg CG improved carcass yield and up to 120 g/kg reduced fat deposition.  aAnimal performance  aBroiler chickens  aMetabolizable energy  aFrango de Corte  aGlicerina  aPerformance  aEnergia metabolizável  aGlycerin1 aSOUZA, A.
