Untersuchungen über die Proteinverdaulichkeit und Aminosäurenresorption in verschiedenen Abschnitten des Verdauungstraktes beim Schwein

Abstract

The intake, excretion and the rate of flow of protein, methionine and 35S were measured at four pigs (live weight 63 kg) with re-entrant cannulae in the duodenum and the ileocecal region after the oral application of 35S-methionine and the feeding with a wheat + wheat gluten + lysine resp. a protein-free diet over a period of 7 days. From the measured values one pattern each for the N- and the methionine metabolism was laid down with the help of the compartment model, and the endogenous and exogenous levels of protein resp. methionine in the duodenum, the ileum and in feces were estimated.
