Salmon is the main dietary source of omega-3 lipids and contains high-biological value protein. However, processing techniques could affect macronutrient digestibility. Also, altered intestinal conditions, particularly given in pancreatic insufficiency, threaten This study tested both hypotheses by subjecting raw, marinated microwave-cooked salmon to static vitro digestion under healthy (pH 7, ...

As environmental constraints become more important issues for the animal industry, selecting feed ingredients that yield good animal performance but also minimize environmental impact of animal production becomes critical. The objective of this research was to identify which compositional features would be desirable for soybean meal to maximize nutritional value and minimize animal waste. Eight...

The chemical composition inclusive amino acids (AAs) and the energy and protein value of three wheat, three maize and seven blend (mainly wheat) dried distillers grains and solubles (DDGS) were determined. The net energy for lactation (NEL) was derived from digestion coefficients obtained with sheep. The digestible protein in the intestines (DVE) and the degraded protein balance (OEB) were dete...

Three growth trials and one digestion trial were conducted to compare the effect of dietary fat sources and combinations on starter pig performance, nutrient digestibility and intestinal morphology. Growth trials 1 and 2, utilizing a total of 324 weanling pigs (21 +/- 3 d), were conducted to determine the influence of addition of soybean oil, coconut oil, choice white grease, 50% soybean oil: 5...

This study was conducted to investigate effects of heat-oxidized soy protein isolate (HSPI) on growth performance, serum biochemical indices, apparent nutrient digestibility and digestive function of broiler chickens. A total of 320 1-day-old Arbor Acres chicks were randomly divided into 4 groups with 8 replicates of 10 birds, receiving diets containing soy protein isolate (SPI, control group) ...

Traditionally in swine nutrition, analyses of starch and fiber have focused on assessing quantity; however, both have a wide range of functional properties making them underappreciated nutrients. Starch ranging from low to high amylose changes from rapidly digestible in the upper gut to poorly digestible but fermentable in the lower gut thereby changing from a source of glucose to VFA source. L...

Recently, interest in animal production and poultry particular has increased, because meat eggs their products are more widely consumed than other products. Human health is also considered one of the priorities. Nowadays, fermentation industry become very popular due to its great benefits pharmaceutical industry, improvement foodstuffs feed improvement. Moreover, microbial can enhance content d...

Resistant starch type 3 (RS-3) holds great potential as a prebiotic by supporting gut microbiota following intestinal digestion. However the factors influencing digestibility of RS-3 are largely unknown. This research aims to reveal how crystal and molecular weight (distribution) influence its resistance. Narrow polydisperse ?-glucans degree polymerization (DP) 14–76, either obtained enzymatic ...

The present study compared in vivo protein digestion a miniature pig model with the dynamic vitro system DiDGI®, using three digestive compartments (stomach, duodenum, and jejunum + ileum). Two soya-based meals—commercial soya milk tofu—were studied, each same macronutrient content but different macrostructures. Our aim was to first deduce from experiments pigs key parameters such as gastric pH...

ABSTRACT Diets with high energy density and additives that enhance use are necessary for finishing feedlot cattle. The objective of the present study was to evaluate performance, ingestive behavior, apparent digestibility diet carcass traits steers fed concentrates from different sources, one derived starchy sources other, lipid combined or not whole soy lecithin, at a dose 40 g animal day-1. e...
