“…This is in line with results reported by Li et al (2016), who observed greater digestibility of DM and nitrogen (trend) in diets evaluated by the total collection method in comparison with the titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) marker method. Lower digestibility estimates observed by the Cr method in comparison with TC were also reported by Verussa et al (2017) in an evaluation of glycerin for swine. The variability of results related to the Cr method compared with TC was explained by Sakomura and Rostagno (2007), who emphasized the possibility of chromium oxide not being fully retrieved in the feces, which interferes with the indigestibility factor used in the calculations of digestibility.…”

-The objective of this study was to determine the digestibility coefficient (DC) of nutrients and the digestible energy (DE), and metabolizable energy (ME) values of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) produced in Brazil by different methods. Eight barrows with 23.3±4.1 kg were housed in metabolic cages in a randomized block design and fed diets containing 0, 200, 400, and 600 g kg -1 of corn DDGS. We determined the digestibility of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), mineral matter (MM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and gross energy (GE) by the total collection (TC) and chromium oxide marker (Cr) methods. Distillers dried grains with solubles provided the respective DM, OM, CP, EE, MM, NDF, and GE values of 910, 863, 286, 66.9, 46.8, 500 g kg -1 , and 4,780 kcal kg -1 . The DE and ME values of DDGS were 3,739 and 3,401 kcal kg -1 and 3,691 and 3,213 kcal kg -1 as determined by TC and Cr methods, respectively. The growing inclusion of DDGS did not affect the DE or ME values. The digestibility coefficients of DM, OM, CP, EE, MM, and NDF were 767, 765, 827, 691, 883, and 821 g kg -1 , respectively, by the total collection method. The Cr underestimated the values of all variables compared with TC method. Levels up to 600 g kg -1 of the test ingredient do not influence the DE and ME of DDGS, but compromises the digestibility coefficients of DM, OM, and NDF.

“…In this line, the energy digestibility of crude glycerin with more than 80% glycerol ranged between 89 and 92% in piglets [ 38 ]. Verussa et al [ 39 ] showed that there was an increase in the fecal digestibility of the DM and OM fractions as the crude glycerin inclusion increased up to 15% in a starter diet, which was in accordance with our digestibility results using a glycerin of a very similar composition (865 g/kg glycerol). Likewise, fecal digestibility coefficients of OM and EE were affected by dietary treatment, increasing linearly with increasing crude glycerin levels (up to 5%) in growing-finishing pig diets [ 27 ].…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the inclusion of crude glycerin in post-weaning diets for piglets on growth performance and digestibility. The study was carried out with a total of 360 piglets over a 39 day period. Animals were blocked by body weight (7.7 ± 0.86 kg) and allotted randomly to one of three dietary treatments containing 0, 2.5 or 5% glycerin (G0, G2.5 and G5, respectively). Considering the whole period, glycerin did not affect the average daily gain. However, the average daily feed intake (ADFI) and the feed conversion ratio (FCR) tended to decrease or decreased linearly as the amount of glycerin increased, respectively (p = 0.060 and p = 0.039). The apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of dry and organic matter (DM, OM) increased linearly with increasing glycerin in both periods (p ≤ 0.05). At the end of the study, there were no differences between treatments for any of the hormones measured. In conclusion, the FCR and digestibility of DM and OM were improved although the ADFI tended to be lower when glycerin was included at 5%. Consequently, crude glycerin could be used as an alternative ingredient to partially replace sweet whey and wheat in post-weaning diets.

“…The effect of the inclusion level of the test ingredient on the digestibility was also reported by Bolarinwa and Adeola (2016), who evaluated the diets with barley and wheat at levels of 0, 300, and 600 g kg −1 , and observed a decreasing linear effect in values of DE and ME and DC of DM for barley. However, Verussa et al (2017) observed that the DC of OM and DM increased linearly as the inclusion of glycerin increased with 50, 100, and 150 g kg −1 . Inclusion levels of 200, 400, and 600 g kg −1 corn DDGS tested by Corassa et al (2017) resulted in differences in DC and digestible fractions of the diet due to DDGS inclusions.…”

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the digestibility and energy of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) from corn and sorghum with or without xylanase enzyme in diets for pigs. The values of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), mineral matter (MM), ether extract (EE), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), gross (GE), digestible (DE), metabolizable energy (ME), and digestibility coefficients (DC) were determined. In the experiment 1, we used eight barrows of 26.15±3.45 kg with repeated measures in three periods of five days of collection. The treatments consisted of a reference diet (RD); RD with 200 g kg −1 corn DDGS or sorghum DDGS; and RD with 400 g kg −1 corn DDGS or sorghum DDGS. Corn DDGS showed higher values of DE, ME, and DC of EE, GE, and CP. Inclusions of 400 g kg −1 of the test ingredients resulted in higher values of DE and ME and trend for higher DC of DM, OM, and CP. In experiment 2, nine barrows weighing 34.91±1.46 kg were fed RD, 200 g kg −1 corn DDGS or 200 g kg −1 corn DDGS plus xylanase enzyme. The inclusion of xylanase did not influence the digestibility and energy values in diets containing corn DDGS. Values of DE and ME of corn DDGS were 3,477 and 3,277 kcal kg −1 , respectively, for the substitution of 200 g kg −1 and 3,761 and 3,068 kcal kg −1 for the substitution of 400 g kg −1 RD. For sorghum DDGS, DE and ME values were 3,030 and 2,863 kcal kg −1 , respectively, for replacement of 200 g kg −1 and 3,398 and 3,296 kcal kg −1 for substitution of 400 g kg −1 RD. Levels of up to 400 g kg −1 do not influence the DE and ME of the diets but impair the digestibility coefficient of DM, OM, CP, EE, MM, and NDF. The use of xylanase enzyme in diets containing 200 g kg −1 of corn DDGS does not affect the digestibility of the diets.
