          Abstract

          Este estudo foi conduzido com o objetivo de avaliar as exigências de treonina digestível em rações para leitoas no período de 15 aos 30 kg, mantidas em ambiente termoneutro. Setenta leitoas, mestiças, com peso inicial de 15,1 ± 0,4 kg, foram distribuídas em delineamento experimental de blocos ao acaso, com cinco tratamentos (níveis de treonina digestível), sete repetições e dois animais por unidade experimental. Os tratamentos corresponderam aos níveis de 0,54; 0,58; 0,61; 0,65 e 0,69% de treonina digestível. Os níveis de treonina digestível da ração aumentaram o ganho de peso diário de forma quadrática até o nível de 0,61% e a conversão alimentar até o nível de 0,62%. As deposições de proteína e gordura na carcaça dos animais também se elevaram de forma quadrática, atingindo valor máximo no nível de 0,61%. Constatou-se efeito linear dos tratamentos sobre os pesos absoluto e relativo do intestino. O nível calculado de 0,62% de treonina digestível, correspondente a uma relação com a lisina digestível de 67% e a um consumo diário de 7,11 g, proporcionou melhor desempenho de leitoas mantidas em ambiente termoneutro dos 15 aos 30 kg.

          This study was carried out to evaluate the requirements of digestible threonine in diets of gilts from 15 to 30kg, maintained in thermoneutral environment. Seventy crossbreed gilts with an initial weight of 15.1 ± 0.4 kg were used in a randomized blocks design, with five treatments (levels of digestible threonine), seven replicates and two animals per experimental unity. The treatments corresponded to the levels of 0.54, 0.58, 0.61, 0.65, e 0.698% of digestible threonine. Digestible threonine levels in the diet increased the daily weight gain in a quadratic way up to the level of 0.61% and the feed:gain ratio up to the level of 0.62%. Protein and fat deposition rates also increased in a quadratic way reaching maximum value up to the level of 0.61%. A linear effect of the treatments was evidenced on the absolute and relative weights of the intestine. The calculated level of 0.62% of digestible threonine corresponding to a relation with digestible lysine of 67% and a daily intake of 7.11 g, provided better performance of gilts maintained in a thermoneutral environment from 15 to 30 kg.

              Threonine requirement of neonatal piglets receiving total parenteral nutrition is considerably lower than that of piglets receiving an identical diet intragastrically.

              Evidence is accumulating that the amino acid requirements for neonates receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN) are significantly different than those for oral feeding and need to be determined. The parenteral threonine requirement was determined in 3-d-old male Yorkshire piglets (n = 25) by examining the effect of varying dietary threonine intakes [0.05-0.6 g/(kg.d)] on phenylalanine oxidation. The diet included adequate energy, total amino acids and phenylalanine, with excess tyrosine. Phenylalanine kinetics were determined from a primed, continuous intravenous infusion of L-[1-14C]phenylalanine. Phenylalanine oxidation, estimated from the rate of 14CO2 released in expired air during isotope infusion, decreased (P 0.15 g/(kg.d). Using breakpoint analysis with 95% confidence interval (CI), mean requirement and safe level of parenteral threonine intake were estimated to be 0.19 and 0.21 g/(kg. d), respectively (equivalent to 13 and 14 mg/g amino acids, respectively). To compare these data with those of orally fed controls, we then repeated the experiment by infusing identical diets intragastrically to piglets (n = 25); the varying dietary threonine intakes were 0.1-1.2 g/(kg.d). Employing identical kinetics and analyses, the mean requirement and safe level of oral threonine intake were estimated to be 0.42 and 0.51 g/(kg.d), respectively (equivalent to 28 and 34 mg/g amino acids, respectively). These data demonstrate that the threonine requirement of neonates during TPN is approximately 45% of the mean oral requirement.
