چکیده
Article history: Received 2 December 2009 Received in revised form 18 October 2010 Accepted 23 December 2010 The study was conducted to determine chemical composition and standardised ileal digestibilities (SID) of crude protein (CP) and amino acids (AA) in currently available grain legume cultivars for growing pigs. Three consecutive experiments were conducted with six barrows each, fitted with simple ileal T-cannulas. In total, 18 assay diets including six different cultivars of faba beans (Vicia faba) and peas (Pisum sativum), respectively, five different cultivars of lupins (Lupinus luteus, Lupinus angustifolius) and one assay diet with a commercial soybean meal (SBM, 490 g kg−1 CP as-fed) were fed according to a row-column-design. The assay feed ingredients were added to a corn starch casein-based basal diet at the expense of corn starch. Each diet was formulated to supply approximately 50% of CP and AA from the assay feed ingredient and casein, respectively. Furthermore, the basal ileal endogenous losses and SID of CP and AA in casein were estimated by regression analysis from apparent ileal digestible and total dietary contents of CP and AA. The SID of CP and AA in the grain legumes were determined in difference to SID of CP and AA originating from casein, after correcting the apparent ileal digestibilities (AID) of CP and AA in the assay diets for basal ileal endogenous CP and AA losses. The average SID of CP in faba bean cultivars (76%) and pea cultivars (79%) were lower compared to lupin cultivars (87%) and SBM (87%) (Pb0.05). The SID of all AA in faba bean cultivars were lower compared to lupin cultivars and SBM (Pb0.05). Digestibility values measured in the present study provide further information to accurately formulate diets for pigs based on standardised ileal digestible contents of CP and AA in currently available grain legumes for growing pigs. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

The Nutritional Value of Brown Rice and Maize for Growing Pigs
An experiment was designed to study the nutritional value of Chinese brown rice and maize for growing pigs. Six male grower pigs (Duroc×Landrace×Large White, 24.3±1.26 kg average initial BW) were surgically fitted with a simple T-cannula at the terminal ileum and allotted within a 2×2 Latin square design. The pigs were fed either a maize or brown rice diet in a direct method to determine their ...

The homoarginine technique has been suggested as a means to determine true ileal amino acid digestibilities in nonruminant animals fed protein-containing diets. Conditions for guanidinating lysine to homoarginine in barley and canola meal and the effect of this process on nutrient composition and ileal digestibilities in the resulting material were investigated. Conditions tested were methyliso...

Standardised ileal digestibilities (SID) of crude protein and amino acids (AA) originating from 24 different feed ingredients, including 11 feed ingredients produced from soybeans, seven by-products of starch processing, four whey products and two fish meals, were determined in piglets by means of the difference method. For the indispensable AA, the highest SID values were obtained in three out...

True ileal lysine digestibilities were determined using the homoarginine (HA) method in casein-, barley-, canola meal-, and barley-canola meal-based diets fed to growing pigs. Four Yorkshire barrows (25 to 49 kg BW) equipped with ileal T-cannulas were fed one of the diets according to a 4 x 4 Latin square design. All diets, except for the barley diet, were formulated to be similar in DE:CP rati...
