“…As described by Murphy et al (2008) the starch resistant to digestion is referred to as resistant starch type 2 (RS 2) found in some matrices, such as raw potato and legumes. Doti et al (2014) reported similar results: these authors found in vitro comparable levels of resistant starch in a pig diet based on pea as starch source, compared to other experimental on cerealsbased diets. Previous studies (Prandini et al 2015(Prandini et al , 2016 reported that the starch sources rich in amylopectin and soluble starch increase the feed efficiency and growth performance in pigs.…”

The type of starch and fibre in the diet affects several parameters, including glycaemic and insulin response, that are involved in pig growth performance. Four experimental diets for growing pigs differing for carbohydrates source (corn, barley, faba bean and pea) were tested. The diets were analysed in vitro to assess the carbohydrates characteristics, and they were administered to 56 crossbreed growing pigs (Landrace Â Large White) randomly divided into four groups (mean age of 95 ± 6 days; body weight 80 kg ± 4 days). Clinical examination and average daily gain were performed before recruitment and after 40 days of experiment. The metabolic effects were investigated by blood count and serum biochemical parameters and by the glycaemic and insulin post-prandial response. The study revealed substantial differences among the diets, suggesting that alternative feedstuffs for swine affect several parameters, including glycaemic and insulin response, with no negative effects on growing performance. The Barley group showed the highest daily weight gain (p < .05) associated with the highest glycaemic (p < .05) and insulin response at 1 and 2 h post-prandial (p < .01), suggesting that the barley-based diet can support performance comparable to that of the corn-based diet in growing pig. By contrast, the lowest glycaemia was observed in the Faba bean group (p < .05), confirming the capacity of this legume to modulate post-prandial glucose levels. Moreover, the ability of some ingredients in lowering glucose and insulin response enriches the knowledge on functional nutrients for animal diets and to prevent the incidence of enteric diseases. HIGHLIGHTS The type of starch and fibre used in the diet highly affected some blood parameters, such as glycaemic and insulin responses. The Barley group showed the highest daily weight gain. Lower glycaemia levels were observed in the Faba bean group compared to the Corn one. Alternative protein sources for swine diets can limit the glycaemic and insulin response with no negative effects on growing performance.

“…In the same study, there was also a decrease in the concentration of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) in the colon. The pattern of gut digestion of starch may affect BFT and growth performance of gilts [9]. Consumption of diets with a high amylose: amylopectin ratio decreased intramuscular fat content and increased loin eye area (LEA) through reduced hepatic lipogenesis [10].…”

“…The present findings suggest that Perez et al's (1980) equation applied in the current study to calculate the DE of the 2 barley varieties could be more appropriate than the Fairbairn et al's (1999) Equation 1 used in the previous study (Prandini, Sigolo, Giuberti, et al 2015). The literature reports contrasting results about the effect of starch type on carcass characteristics (Camp et al 2003;Shelton et al 2004;Doti et al 2014;Prandini, Sigolo, Giuberti, et al 2015). These discrepancies could be addressed to the different experimental conditions used such as growth phase of pigs, level of inclusion of high glycemic index starch sources, and type of starchy ingredients.…”

The effect of diets based on two different barley varieties, with or without non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) degrading enzymes was evaluated on growth performance, carcass characteristics and fresh thigh quality in Italian heavy growing-finishing pigs. Pigs (64) were assigned to four diets: two diets based on 85% of hulled normal-amylose barley (Cometa, with or without NSP enzyme complex) and two diets based on 85% of hulless low-amylose barley (Alamo, with or without NSP enzyme complex). The diets were formulated according to three growth phases with same lisyne:digestible energy ratio. The NSP enzyme complex did not improve the Cometa and Alamo diets in terms of pig growth performance, carcass characteristics and fresh thigh quality. Throughout the study, the Alamo group had greater (p < 0.05) final body weight, average daily gain and gain per megacalorie of digestible energy than the Cometa group. Higher (p < 0.05) carcass and thigh weights, and lower (p < 0.01) thigh chilling losses were observed for the Alamo group compared with the Cometa group. The Cometa diet decreased (p < 0.01) polyunsaturated fatty acids level, and increased (p < 0.01) monounsaturated fatty acid content and saturated fatty acids/polyunsaturated fatty acids ratio in subcutaneous fat of fresh thighs. No appreciable differences were observed in the color of subcutaneous fat and biceps femoris of pigs fed the Cometa and Alamo diets. Feeding hulless low-amylose barley to growing-finishing pigs can be valuable to promote growth performance and carcass characteristics. No NSP enzyme complex is needed when hulled normal-amylose barley or hulless low-amylose barley are used in diets for heavy pigs. ARTICLE HISTORY
