ABSTRACT
The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of dietary levels
of wheat gluten (WG) protein on the ileal flow of crude mucin and sugars, as well
as sugar composition of crude mucin preparations in young pigs. Six cannulated
young pigs were used in 3 periods × 3 diets in the Latin square design. The three
isoenergetic diets containing low, medium or high WG protein level (LWG, MWG
and HWG, respectively) were formulated. LWG diet was treated as a control.
The three dietary WG levels were obtained by supplementing 26.7, 52.9 and
79.0 g WG/kg to the respective diets. Ileal digesta was collected during the last
3 days of each 7-day period. Xylose content in ileal digesta was higher in LWG
pigs compared to two other pigs groups. Galactose content was higher in MWG
pigs compared to LWG and was lower compared to HWG pigs. Xylose content
decreased linearly and galactose content increased linearly with increasing
dietary WG protein levels. The HWG diet increased ileal flow of crude mucin and
galactose compared to the LWG diet. The flow of crude mucin and galactose
increased linearly with increasing dietary WG protein levels. The content of
galactose in crude mucin preparations was higher in MWG pigs than in LWG
pigs and was lower than in the HWG pigs. Dietary WG protein levels had
a linear effect on the content of xylose and galactose in crude mucin preparations.
In conclusion, WG protein positively affected ileal flow of mucin and its sugar
composition.
