1 st WorkshopXIII International Feed Technology SymposiumPSKOH, NSI <strong>and</strong> PDI are the prefered methods. Batal et al. (4) reported that the PDIdisplayed the most constant response to heating <strong>of</strong> FFSB <strong>and</strong> that it may better indicateprocessed FFSB quality compared to other methods, <strong>and</strong> thus the PDI would be the firstchoice.For adequately heat treated soybeans globally accepted values for PDI are between 15<strong>and</strong> 28 (6). However, these values PDI are not specified in the description <strong>of</strong> the <strong>of</strong>ficialAOCS method (3). In fact, no values were specified. Attempts to source originalpublication(s) which cited the PDI values <strong>of</strong> 15 - 28 for adequately-processed FFSB,have failed. It was therefore the aim <strong>of</strong> this study to confirm that globally acceptedrange.MATERIALS AND METHODSRaw soybeans were processed by dry extrusion at 7 temperatures: 110°C, 127°C, 136°C,140°C 145°C, 151°C <strong>and</strong> 164°C <strong>and</strong> fed to chickens.In vivo trialA total <strong>of</strong> 384 male Ross broilers were r<strong>and</strong>omly allocated to 48 pens, each containing 8birds. On arrival all broilers were sorted into equal weight groups, <strong>and</strong> assigned atr<strong>and</strong>om to the different treatment pens, so that initial average weight <strong>and</strong> weightdistribution were similar for all pens. They were allocated to one <strong>of</strong> seven <strong>dietary</strong>treatments containing the processed FFSB, with five replicates per treatment. Theaverage body weight gain (ADWG) in the period from day 0 to 14 <strong>and</strong> feed conversionratio (FCR) on day 14 were monitored as production parameters.Data were analyzed using the statistical programme SAS/STAT (9).Protein Dispersibility Index (PDI)Protein dispersibility index (PDI) was determined according to the <strong>of</strong>ficial AOCSmethod (3). It was subjected to an inter-laboratory study, which was conductedaccording to the Collaborative Study Procedures (1) <strong>and</strong> in which participated 8laboratories. Seven FFSB samples which were assessed in the in vivo trial with chickenswere analysed for PDI in duplicate. A “Hamilton Beach” Commercial Blender, modelG936, (constructed according to requirements <strong>of</strong> the <strong>of</strong>ficial AOCS method) was used byall laboratories. The speed <strong>of</strong> the blender was 8500 rpm. Repeatibility limit (absolutedifference between two single results <strong>of</strong> analysis <strong>of</strong> the same sample obtained in onelaboratory) <strong>and</strong> reproducibility limit (absolute difference between single results <strong>of</strong>analysis <strong>of</strong> the same sample obtained in different laboratories) were determinedaccording to the AOCS procedure (2).188
