چکیده

Two growth assays and one nitrogen balance experiment were conducted to develop an ideal amino acid pattern for 10-kg pigs. Crossbred pigs were fed chemically defined amino acid diets containing four indispensable amino acid (AA) patterns: 1) the Illinois final amino acid pattern (IFP), a recently developed AA profile for purified diets; 2) the Illinois ideal amino acid pattern (IIP), a modification of IFP; 3) the Wang and Fuller ideal amino acid pattern (WFIP); and 4) the 1988 National Research Council (NRC) amino acid requirement pattern for 10-kg pigs (NRCP). A mixture of dispensable AA consisting of glutamate, glycine, and proline that had been proven to be an efficient mixture of dispensable AA nitrogen was fed together with the indispensable AA patterns. Diets were made isonitrogenous and isoenergetic within experiments. In Exp. 1, pigs were given ad libitum access to experimental diets with AA levels set above the NRC AA requirements. Regardless of which AA pattern was fed, pigs had similar (P greater than .05) daily gains, daily feed intakes, and gain:feed ratios. In Exp. 2, all levels of indispensable and dispensable AA were reduced to 50% of levels present in Exp. 1. When pigs had ad libitum access to these diets, daily gains of pigs fed IIP were superior (P greater than .05) to those of pigs fed IFP or NRCP, but similar (P greater than .05) weight gains occurred in pigs fed IFP, WFIP, and NRCP. In Exp. 3, the efficiency of nitrogen utilization of the four indispensable AA patterns was evaluated by a nitrogen balance experiment in pigs equally fed the same experimental diets fed in Exp. 2. Pigs fed NRCP utilized nitrogen with an efficiency of 74%, which was less (P less than .001) than the efficiencies of 79 to 80% obtained in pigs fed IFP, IIP, and WFIP. Nitrogen retained (grams) per gram of nitrogen intake from indispensable AA was greater (P less than .01) for IIP than for either IFP or WFIP. The results of these experiments indicate that WFIP contains excesses of leucine, valine, phenylalanine plus tyrosine, methionine plus cystine, and threonine for pigs between 10 and 20 kg BW. Also, NRCP is probably first-limiting in leucine and also limiting in other AA, resulting in lower nitrogen utilization than IIP. The pattern of indispensable AA in IIP (grams of AA/100 g lysine) is as follows: lysine (100), methionine+cystine (60), threonine (65), tryptophan (18), phenylalanine+tyrosine (95), leucine (100), isoleucine (60), valine (68), arginine (42), and histidine (32).

Growth performance, diet apparent digestibility, and plasma metabolite concentrations of barrows fed corn-soybean meal diets or low-protein, amino acid-supplemented diets at different feeding level.

Two experiments, each with 36 barrows with high-lean-gain potential, were conducted to evaluate apparent nutrient digestibilities and performance and plasma metabolites of pigs fed corn-soybean meal diets (CONTROL) and low-protein diets. The low-protein diets were supplemented with crystalline lysine, threonine, tryptophan, and methionine either on an ideal protein basis (IDEAL) or in a pattern...

Effect of low-protein amino acid-supplemented diets on the growth performance, gut morphology, organ weights and digesta characteristics of weaned pigs.

A 21-day study was conducted to determine whether isoleucine might limit the performance of piglets fed low-crude protein (CP), amino acid (AA)-supplemented diets and to investigate the potential benefits of low-CP diets on gastrointestinal health in weaned pigs. Ninety-six piglets (initial BW = 6.44 ± 0.14 kg), housed four per pen, were randomly assigned to one of four diets, resulting in six ...

The effect of dietary peptide concentration on endogenous ileal amino acid loss in the growing pig.

The aim of the present study was to determine whether dietary peptide concentration had an effect on endogenous ileal amino acid flow in the growing pig. Eight 33 kg live weight entire male pigs had post-valve T-caecum (PVTC) cannulas surgically implanted for the collection of ileal digesta. The pigs were fed twice daily at 100 g/kg metabolic body weight per d and were given diets containing en...

The optimum dietary amino acid pattern for growing pigs. 1. Experiments by amino acid deletion.

A series of four nitrogen-balance experiments was carried out with growing pigs to determine the optimum balance amongst the amino acids in the diet. The reduction in N retention when 20% of a single amino acid was removed from the diet was used to calculate a dietary amino acid pattern in which each amino acid would be equally limiting. A mixture of amino acids simulating the amino acid patter...

1. Endogenous levels of amino acids in ileal digesta were determined as the output from pigs given protein-free diets and by extrapolation to zero intake of linear regressions of ileal amino acid output v. dietary amino acid intake. The protein-free diets included 0 or 50 g cellulose/kg and extrapolations were made from two series of four diets which contained graded levels of wheat or barley a...
