          Abstract

          Rice bran is not only a source of energy for pigs, it also contains significant amounts of phosphorus (P). However, about 75% of this P is not digested by the pig, unless phytase is added to the diet. Once excreted, P may end up contaminating water bodies and thus causing eutrophication. The objectives of this study were to determine the digestibility of P and other nutrients in a diet supplemented with increasing levels of rice bran (0, 7.5, 15, and 30%), and to evaluate the effects of phytase inclusion on the nutrient digestibility of rice bran. Pigs (n= 24, 87.5 ± 2.51kg) were confined in individual metabolic crates to determine total tract apparent digestibility and retention of nutrients. The digestibility coefficients found for dry matter, energy, fat, N, and P in the rice bran product used were: 72, 79, 84, 74, and 15%, respectively. Phytase supplementation increased P digestibility (p<0.01) but it did not increase N digestibility (p>0.1); the increase in fecal P excretion that occurred when rice bran was added to the diet was reduced by 26% with phytase supplementation.

          El salvado de arroz no sólo es una interesante fuente de energía para cerdos, sino que contiene bastante fósforo (P). Sin embargo, cerca del 75% de ese P no es utilizable por los cerdos, a menos que se adicione alguna fitasa a la dieta de estos animales. Al no utilizarse, dicho P es excretado, pudiendo contaminar fuentes de agua y generando eutroficación del recurso hídrico. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue establecer la digestibilidad del P y otros nutrientes en una dieta suplementada con niveles crecientes de salvado de arroz (0, 7.5, 15, y 30%), así como evaluar el efecto de la inclusión de fitasa en la digestibilidad de nutrientes del salvado. Para esto se utilizaron 24 cerdos (87.5 ± 2.51kg), confinados en jaulas metabólicas individuales, a los que se les calculó digestibilidad total aparente y retención de nutrientes por el método de Colección Total. Los coeficientes de digestibilidad encontrados fueron: 72, 79, 84, 74, y 15% para materia seca, energía, grasa, N y P, respectivamente. La suplementación con fitasa incrementó la digestibilidad del P (p<0.01), pero no incrementó la digestibilidad del N (p>0.1). El incremento observado en la excreción fecal de P al adicionar salvado de arroz a la dieta fue disminuido en 26% con la adición de fitasa.

          O farelo de arroz não é apenas uma fonte de energia interessante para os suínos, ele contém suficiente fósforo (P). No entanto, perto do 75% de P não é usado pelos suínos, a menos que adicione-se alguma fitase na dieta desses animais. Quando não for utilizado, o P é excretado e podem contaminar fontes de água e eutrofização dos recursos hídricos. O objectivo deste estudo foi determinar a digestibilidade do P e outros nutrientes de uma dieta suplementada com níveis crescentes de farelo de arroz (0, 7.5, 15 e 30%), e para avaliar o efeito da fitase sobre a digestibilidade de nutrientes de farelo. Para isso, 24 animais (87.5 ± 2.51 kg), foram confinados em gaiolas metabólicas individuais. Foi calculada a digestibilidade total e retenção de nutrientes pelo método de colheita total. Os coeficientes de digestibilidade encontrados foram: 72, 79, 84, 74 e 15% de matéria seca, energia, gordura, N e P, respectivamente. A suplementação de fitase aumentou o P digestível (p<0.01), porém, aumentou a digestibilidade do N (p>0.1). O aumento observado na excreção fecal de P pela adição de farelo de arroz à dieta foi reduzida em 26% com a adição de fitase.

            Supplementing corn-soybean meal diets with microbial phytase linearly improves phytate phosphorus utilization by weanling pigs.

            Two experiments were conducted with weanling pigs to determine the effectiveness of a dietary supplement of Aspergillus niger phytase in improving the availability of phytate-P in corn-soybean meal diets without supplemental inorganic P. Experiment 1 consisted of two P and Ca balance trials and two feeding trials. Twelve pigs (8.18 +/- .44 kg BW) were housed individually in stainless steel metabolism cages. Six pigs received 750 phytase units (PU)/g of basal diet and the other six pigs received the basal diet without supplemental phytase as control. In Exp. 2, 96 pigs (8.81 +/- .75 kg BW) were allotted to 16 partially slotted floor pens and their basal diets were supplemented with either 0, 250, 500, or 750 PU/g for 4 wk. Individual pig weights and pen feed consumption were measured weekly. Blood samples were taken from all pigs at the end of each trial in Exp. 1 and from three pigs per pen weekly in Exp. 2 to measure serum (plasma) inorganic P (P) and Ca concentrations and alkaline phosphatase (AP) activities. The results of Exp. 1 indicated that dietary phytase increased P retention by 50% (P < .0001) and decreased fecal P excretion by 42% (P < .0001). Pigs that received dietary phytase had serum P and Ca concentrations and serum AP activities that were nearly normal, whereas control pigs had values indicative of a moderate P deficiency. Favorable effects of phytase disappeared when the phytase was removed from the diet.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

              Comparative total tract digestibility of dietary energy and nutrients in growing pigs and adult sows.

              Seventy-seven diets were fed to 61-kg growing pigs at a feeding level close to their ad libitum intake and to nonlactating, nonpregnant sows slightly above their maintenance energy level (2.4 kg/d). The main objectives of this study were to compare the total tract digestibility of dietary energy or nutrients of the 77 diets in growing pigs and adult sows and to analyze the effect of diet chemical composition on total tract digestibility in both groups of pigs. Diets were formulated to represent a range of chemical compositions as large as those found in most practical situations. The DE and ME values and total tract digestible nutrient contents of diets were measured for each group of animals; each diet was measured in four to five animals per group, and collection of urine and feces lasted 10 d. The results were used to establish equations for predicting DE and ME values, total tract digestible nutrient contents, and total tract digestibility coefficients of energy from chemical characteristics for each group of animals. The results show that the total tract digestibility of energy or nutrients was higher (P < 0.01) in adult sows than in growing pigs; the total tract digestibility coefficients of energy, crude protein, ether extract, and NDF averaged 85.2, 85.1, 37.1, and 64.4%, respectively, for sows and 82.1, 80.3, 31.6, and 56.3%, respectively, for growing pigs. The ME/DE ratio was lower (P < 0.01) in sows (94.8%) than in growing pigs (96.5%), as a result of higher urinary energy losses in sows. The difference in DE values (on average, 0.6 MJ/kg of DM) between adult sows and growing pigs was not constant (P < 0.01) but increased with dietary fiber content (3.3, 8.6, and 10.1 kJ for each gram of NDF, ADF, and crude fiber increase in the diet, respectively), which suggests that the origin of the difference between the two physiological stages is mainly due to a higher rate of degradation of dietary fiber in the hindgut of sows. The DE and ME values could be accurately predicted from total tract digestible nutrients or from chemical characteristics for each physiological stage. Equations for predicting urinary energy loss from urinary N are also proposed. From a practical point of view, it is suggested to use two energy values for pig feeds: one applicable to growing-finishing pigs and one to adult sows. Equations for predicting DE in adult sows from energy values obtained in growing pigs are proposed.
