The objectives of this experiment was to evaluate the subsequent growth and organ weights, blood profiles and cecal microbiota of broiler chicks fed pre-starter diets containing fermented soybean meal products during early phase. A total of nine hundred 1-d-old chicks were randomly assigned into six groups with six replicates of 25 chicks each. The chicks were fed control pre-starter diet with ...

Three experiments were conducted to determine the feeding value to broiler chicks of soybean meal (SBM) produced from high-protein (SBM-HP), low-oligosaccharide (SBM-LO), or conventional (SBM-CV) varieties of soybeans. The 3 SBM contained 54.9, 53.6, and 47.5% CP, respectively. The standardized digestibility (SDD) of amino acids (AA) in the 3 ingredients was measured using a precision-fed roost...

Two experiments were conducted to determine AA digestibility and the concentration of DE and ME in 5 sources of soybean meal (SBM). The 5 sources included hexane-extracted SBM produced from high-protein soybeans (SBM-HP) and conventional soybeans (SBM-CONV), and mechanically extruded-expelled SBM produced from high-protein soybeans (EE-SBM-HP), low-oligosaccharide soybeans (EE-SBM-LO), and conv...

We investigated digestion responses to conventional and low oligosaccharide soybean meal (SBM) incorporation into diets for dogs. Five female dogs were fitted with T-type cannulas at the terminal ileum and fed five diets in a 5 x 5 Latin square design. Corn grain + poultry meal-based diets containing different levels and types of SBM (0% SBM, 18.55% conventional SBM, 18.55% low oligosaccharide ...

Six mature wethers (BW 72 kg) with ruminal, duodenal, and ileal cannulas were fed a basal (no added soybean meal [SBM]) diet or diets containing unheated SBM or SBM roasted at 165 degrees C for 75, 150, 180 or 210 min in a 6 x 6 Latin square experiment. Concentrations of indicators of heat exposure (NDF, ADF, and ADIN) in SBM increased with increasing roasting time. Organic matter digestion cha...

The effects of inclusion in the diet of different sources of soya bean meal (SBM) on growth performance, total tract apparent digestibility (TTAD) and apparent ileal digestibility (AID) of major dietary components and mucosal ileum morphology were studied in Iberian pigs weaned at 30 days of age. From 30 to 51 days of age (phase I), there was a control diet based on regular soya bean meal (R-SB...
