Title: In vivo and in vitro gastric emptying of milk replacers containing soybean proteins. Author: Caugant I, Petit HV, Ivan M, Bard C, Savoie L, Toullec R, Thirouin S, Yvon M. Journal: J Dairy Sci; 1994 Feb; 77(2):533-40. PubMed ID: 8182177. Abstract: Gastric digestion of three milk replacers for which protein was provided either exclusively by milk powder or partially (50%) by heated soybean flour or soybean protein concentrate was studied in vivo and in vitro. In vivo gastric emptying of protein fractions of the diets was measured in six preruminant calves fitted with reentrant duodenal cannulas and used in a double 3 x 3 Latin square design. In vitro gastric emptying was studied after hydrochloric acid and rennet digestion in an artificial stomach. In vivo and in vitro flow rates of 12% TCA-insoluble N and total N were higher for the soybean diets than for the milk protein diet, indicating that the incorporation of soybean protein prevented casein from clotting. Because of this faster gastric emptying, proteolysis in the stomach was reduced. However, gastric emptying of NPN (12% TCA-soluble N) was significantly decreased only in vitro. No difference existed between the two milk replacers containing either soybean flour or soybean protein concentrate. In vivo and in vitro results were correlated, suggesting that the in vitro method could be used to predict gastric digestion of protein fractions in vivo.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
