“…Taking the value of 0.95 as the conversion coefficient of digestible energy into ME (Diggs et al 1965;De Goey, 1973), the mean coefficient for the apparent digestibility of gross energy in the present experiments was 0.85, which is in agreement with results previously obtained with the same diet (Le Dividich et al 1977). Entringer .et al (1975) reported detrimental effects of diarrhoea on the apparent digestibility of N in growing pigs.…”

I. Six experiments, each involving two groups of six piglets, were designed to study the influence of environmental temperature on heat production, energy retention and protein and fat gain in early weaned piglets. Immediately after weaning, at a mean age of 25 d, the animals were raised in two open circuit respiratory chambers. Each chamber was equipped with a totally wired cage. The piglets were paired-fed and maintained at environmental temperatures of 20, 24 or 28". Four replicates were used for each temperature. Metabolizable energy, heat production and nitrogen balance were measured during two consecutive periods (A and B), each of 6 d duration.2. Heat production was higher at 20' than at 24 and 28" during periods A and B. Energy retention was negative during period A, it was positive during period B and increased with temperature.3. Protein deposition was always positive and independent of environmental temperature. The net efficiency of protein utilization was 0.77. 4. Body fat was mobilized during period A at a higher rate at zoo than 28". During period B, fat gain increased with increase in temperature.5. The calculated ME requirement for maintenance amounted to 411 kJ/kg body-weight 0"6 per d at 28O.6. The critical temperature of early weaned piglets raised in intensive modem housing and fed at about go % of the ad lib. intake is close to 28" during the first 12 d after weaning.Considerable attention has been given during the last decade to the influence of environmental temperature on energy metabolism in the newborn pig and the growing pig (Holmes & Close, 1977). In contrast, there is little available information on the energy metabolism of piglets immediately after weaning in spite of the likely effects of thermal environment on performance (Le Dividich & Aumaitre, 1978). The thermal insulation of 3-4 weeks old piglets is poorly developed and modern intensive housing systems, particularly those of early weaning in totally wired cages, does not afford protection against adverse climatic conditions. Recently, Close & Stanier (1979) studied the effect of environmental temperature on energy and nitrogen metabolism in early weaned piglets. However, the authors did not take into account the immediate period following weaning. From a nutritional point of view, this period is associated with a temporary under-feeding (Leibbrandt et al. 1975a) so that the heat increment of feeding available for maintaining homoeothermy in the cold is limited. The question arises therefore as to the extent to which energy and protein intake contribute to the energy requirements for thermoregulation and growth in piglets exposed to cold environmental conditions immediately after early weaning.The purpose of the present experiment was to investigate the effect of environmental temperature on energy and N metabolism of piglets immediately after early weaning, i.e. without any habituation to the experimental treatments. To make the conditions more closely comparable with those of the animals' normal mode of rearing, piglets were...

“…The soluble fraction of NSPs enhances the digesta viscosity by directly binding the water molecules at low concentrations or by interacting themselves to form a network as the concentration increases [233]. Water-holding capacity is another characteristic of NSPs that may influence the antinutritional properties of NSPs [234]. The ability to absorb large amounts of water and maintain normal motility of the gut becomes an important attribute of insoluble NSPs in poultry nutrition [235].…”

“…The increase in gut viscosity lowers the mixing of digestive enzymes and substrates in the intestinal lumen [230]. Combined with increased mucus production, NSPs can also increase the resistance of the unstirred water layer at the intestinal surface [234]. Furthermore, NSPs in cell walls physically inhibit the access of digestive enzymes to nutrients that are encapsulated within cell walls.…”

Grain legumes are fair sources of protein, amino acids and energy, and can be used as a replacement for soybean meal in poultry feed formulations as the soybean meal becomes short in supply and costly. However, a concern associated with the use of grain legumes in poultry feeding is the presence of antinutritional factors. The effective processing and utilisation of these grain legumes in poultry feeding are well documented. The current review focuses on four selected grain legumes (lupins [Lupinus albus and Lupinus angustifolius], field peas [Phaseolus vulgaris], faba beans [Vicia faba] and chickpeas [Cicer arietinum]) and their nutrient content, the presence of antinutritional factors, processing methods and feeding value, including updated data based on recent research findings.

“…Calculated digestibility values, then, should be referred to as "apparent." For AAs and fat, endogenous losses are quite substantial and are influenced by the presence of other nutrients as well as nonnutrients in the diet (70). Nyachoti et al (71) concluded that endogenous nutrient losses interfere with the additivity of nutrient digestibilities in mixtures of ingredients present in complete foods, and with metabolic losses associated with the use of absorbed nutrients for production.…”

Pet owners have increasing concerns about the nutrition of their pets, and they desire foods and treats that are safe, traceable, and of high nutritive value. To meet these high expectations, detailed chemical composition characterization of ingredients well beyond that provided by proximate analysis will be required, as will information about host physiology and metabolism. Use of faster and more precise analytical methodology and novel technologies that have the potential to improve pet food safety and quality will be implemented. In vitro and in vivo assays will continue to be used as screening tools to evaluate nutrient quality and adequacy in novel ingredients prior to their use in animal diets. The use of molecular and high-throughput technologies allows implementation of noninvasive studies in dogs and cats to investigate the impact of dietary interventions by using systems biology approaches. These approaches may further improve the health and longevity of pets.
