Abstract:

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different ratioes of amylopectin/amylose in dietary starch on digestibilities of dietary amino acids (AA) in weaning pigs. Results show that consuming dietary starch with different ratioes of amylopectin/amylose would affect the digestibility of AA and high concentration of amylopectin in dietary starch would improve the efficiency of AA in pigs.

Key words: starch, amino acids, weaning pig
