Contribution of purified soybean trypsin inhibitor and exogenous protease to endogenous amino acid losses and mineral digestibility

ABSTRACT: The primary objective of the current study was to evaluate the impact of trypsin inhibitor (TI) and exogenous protease supplementation on endogenous loss of amino acids (AA) in broiler chickens. A total of 384 Cobb-500 broiler chicks were allocated to 4 nitrogen-free diets, each with 8 rep...

Sumario:ABSTRACT: The primary objective of the current study was to evaluate the impact of trypsin inhibitor (TI) and exogenous protease supplementation on endogenous loss of amino acids (AA) in broiler chickens. A total of 384 Cobb-500 broiler chicks were allocated to 4 nitrogen-free diets, each with 8 replicate cages and 12 birds per replicate. The diets were arranged as a 2 × 2 factorial with factors being dietary TI (0 or 8,000 TIU/g) and exogenous protease (0 or 15,000 PROT/kg). Desired dietary TI concentration was achieved by addition of commercially available, purified soybean TI. There was no effect of TI or exogenous protease or their interaction on growth performance of birds. However, the endogenous loss of nitrogen (N) and all AA increased (P < 0.05) due to dietary TI concentration except for Cys. The increase in endogenous AA due to TI ranged from 17% for Thr to 52.2% for Trp. Exogenous protease had no effect on endogenous loss of N and all AA. There was no effect of TI or exogenous protease or their interaction on the AID of P, however AID of Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn, and Cu was reduced (P < 0.05) due to dietary TI. The AID of Cu (P < 0.01) and K (P < 0.05) improved with exogenous protease supplementation. Significant interactions (P < 0.05) between exogenous protease and TI existed for Zn, Mg, Cu, and Na. The concentration (g/kg DM intake) of crude mucin and sialic acid increased (P < 0.05) with increased dietary TI. Decreased trypsin (P < 0.001) and increased chymotrypsin (P < 0.001) activity in the pancreas were observed as a result of exogenous protease supplementation. In conclusion, the current study showed that TI increases the endogenous loss of AA and reduced the digestibility of minerals in broiler chickens. Furthermore, exogenous protease did not affect endogenous AA flow, irrespective of added purified dietary TI.
