Abstract:Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of protease supplementation on degradation of soybean meal (SBM) allergenic proteins (glycinin and β-conglycinin) and gut health of weaned pigs fed SBM-based diets. In Experiment 1, two SBM samples (SBM1 and SBM2) from 2 different sources were subjected to porcine in vitro gastric degradation to determine the effects of protease (at 15,000 units/kg) on degradation of the soybean allergenic proteins. In Experiment 2, forty-eight weaned pigs (BW = 6.66 kg) … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
