Abstract

This study aimed to develop equations for predicting the in vitro ileal disappearance (IVID) of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) and in vitro total tract disappearance (IVTTD) of DM and organic matter (OM) in bakery byproducts based on their chemical composition, including neutral detergent fiber (NDF). Ten sources of bakery byproducts were tested for IVID and IVTTD of nutrients using a 2-step procedure simulating the digestion and absorption in the stomach and small intestine and a 3-step procedure simulating the digestion and absorption in the stomach, small intestine, and large intestine of pigs. The prediction models for IVID of nutrients in bakery byproducts were: IVID of DM (%) = 99.5 − NDF (% DM) × 1.2 with r2 = 0.99; and IVID of CP (%) = 77.3 − NDF (% DM) × 0.3 with r2 = 0.47. The models for IVTTD of nutrients in bakery byproducts were: IVTTD of DM (%) = 100.0 − NDF (% DM) × 1.2 with r2 = 0.98; and IVTTD of OM (%) = 102.1 − NDF (% DM) × 1.2 with r2 = 0.98. In conclusion, the in vitro nutrient disappearances in bakery byproducts can be estimated using fiber concentration as a sole independent variable. Further research is warranted to validate the prediction models to use in feed formulation.
