1 st WorkshopXIII International Feed Technology SymposiumPROTEIN DISPERSIBILITY INDEX AS AN INDICATOR OFTHE DEGREE OF FULL FAT SOYBEAN HEAT TREATMENTDragan Palić 1 , Sophia Elisabeth Coetzee 2 , Kedibone Yvonne Modika 2 , Slavko Filipović 11 Institute for Food Technology, Bulevar cara Lazara 1, 21 000 Novi Sad, Serbia2 Animal Production Institute, Agricultural Research Council, Irene 0062, South AfricaABSTRACTFull fat soybeans (FFSB) intended for use in monogastric nutrition need to undergo heattreatment, so that present anti-nutritional factors can be inactivated. Under- or overtreatmentwill decrease the level <strong>of</strong> amino <strong>acids</strong> available to the animal. There are anumber <strong>of</strong> laboratory methods that can be used to estimate the adequacy <strong>of</strong> FFSBprocessing, one <strong>of</strong> them being the Protein Dispersibility Index (PDI). In this paper, theresults <strong>of</strong> an inter-laboratory study have been presented, with an aim to confirm the PDIglobally accepted values <strong>of</strong> between 15 <strong>and</strong> 28 for adequately processed soybean. SevenFFSB samples were dry extruded at temperatures from 110°C to 164°C <strong>and</strong> assessed inthe trial with chickens. Eight laboratories have been determining the PDI according tothe <strong>of</strong>ficial AOCS method. PDI range <strong>of</strong> 8.50 - 10.30 has been obtained for describingadequately extruded full fat soybean. Repeatibility limit r=2.11 <strong>and</strong> reproducibility limitR=7.73 were obtained.Key words: full fat soybean, extrusion, degree <strong>of</strong> processing, protein dispersibility index,inter-laboratory studyINTRODUCTIONFull fat soybeans (FFSB) contain anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) which limit its use inmonogastric diets (10). The ANFs can be inactivated by heat treatment. However, overtreatmentwill damage the protein <strong>and</strong> decrease amino acid availability (6). There istherefore an optimum range <strong>of</strong> temperatures where the ANFs are sufficiently removedwithout damage to reactive amino <strong>acids</strong>. Amongst other authors, Holmes (7), Ruiz et al.(8) <strong>and</strong> Zarkadas et al. (11) showed that moderate heating is necessary to increase thedigestibility <strong>of</strong> soybean protein for non-ruminants. A comparatively mild heating leadsto denaturation <strong>of</strong> tertiary <strong>and</strong> quaternary structures, allowing more effective penetration<strong>of</strong> digestion enzymes.There are a number <strong>of</strong> laboratory methods that can be used to estimate the adequacy <strong>of</strong>FFSB heat treatment. Commonly used methods for assessing the processed FFSB qualityare those for the determination <strong>of</strong> urease activity <strong>and</strong>ex (UAI), trypsin inhibitor (TI),protein solubility in KOH (PSKOH), nitrogen solubility index (NSI) <strong>and</strong> proteindispersibility index (PDI). In a critical assessment <strong>of</strong> methods, Palic et al. (7) concludedthat protein solubility is the best indicator for FFSB quality control <strong>and</strong> that therefore187
