چکیده
The utilizable energy content of wheat distillers dried grains with solubles (wheat-DDGS) without or with supplementation of enzyme containing xylanase, amylase and protease (XAP) activities was deter mined for turkeys using linear regression method. A total of 126 BUT 10 male turkeys were fed a nutrient-adequate starter diet from d 1 to 14. On d 14, the birds were assigned to 6 dietary treatments consisting of 3 levels of wheat-DDGS (0, 300, or 600 g/kg) and 2 levels of XAP (0 or 250 mg/kg of diet) in a randomized complete block design with 7 replicate pens and 3 birds per replicate pen. The diets were fed for 7 d. Energy-yielding ingredients in the wheat-soybean meal reference diet were replaced by wheat-DDGS in a way that their ratios were the same across all the diets. Grab excreta samples were collected from each pen from d 18 to 20 to determine the AME of the diet by the index method. The AME or AMEn of wheat-DDGS was determined from the slope of regression of wheat-DDGS-associated energy intake (kcal) against wheat-DDGS intake (kg). Increasing the dietary inclusion of wheat-DDGS from 0 to 600 g/kg of the diet linearly decreased (P < 0.05) dry matter retention and total tract energy retention, irrespective of XAP supplementation. There were wheat-DDGS × XAP interactions (P < 0.05) on dietary AME and AMEn. Dietary AME and AMEn values decreased linearly (P < 0.05) as the level of wheat-DDGS increased in the diets without XAP, whereas there was no effect of increasing wheat-DDGS level on dietary AME or AMEn in XAP-supplemented diets. From the regression analysis, the ME values (kcal/kg DM) of wheat-DDGS without and with supplemental XAPwere 3,355 and 3,558, respectively. Corresponding MEn values (kcal/kg DM) were 3,109 and 3,294, respectively. Enzyme supplementation increased (P > 0.05) both the ME and MEn of the wheat-DDGS by 6 percent. It was concluded from the current study that the wheat-DDGS is a valuable source of ME for turkeys and that XAP supplementation can further increase energy availability from the feedstuff.

According to the World Health Organization, viable probiotics could have health effects. However, in recent years, many benefits have been observed through application of inactive and non-viable cells of microbes or their metabolites. Therefore, probiotics could be defined as viable, inactive, or non-viable microbial cells or cell extracts that have beneficial health effects on the host. Based...
