본 연구는 이유자돈 사료 내 유청을 대체하기 위한 bio-starch의 적정 급여 수준을 평가하기 위해 시험을 실시하였다. 21일령 3원 교잡종[(Landrace×Yorkshire)×Duroc] 이유자돈 120두를 공시하였으며, 시험 개시시 체중은 6.01±0.34kg 이었고, phase 1(0~2주) 및 phase 2(3~5주)의 2단계로 사양시험을 실시하였다. 시험 설계는 1) 대조구(Control diet)와 배합사료 중 건조 유청의 일부를 bio-starch로 각각 5, 10 및 15% 대체 급여한 2) BS5, 3) BS10 및 4) BS15 처리구로 4개 처리를 하였으며, 처리당 6반복, 반복당 5두씩 완전임의 배치하였다. 전체 사양 시험기간 동안 일당사료섭취량에 있어서 BS5와 BS15처리구가 대조구와 비교하여 유의적으로 높은 섭취량을 나타내었으며(P<0.05), 체중, 일당증체량 및 사료효율은 유의적인 차이가 없었다(P>0.05). 시험 2주의 건물과 질소 소화율은 bio-starch 10% 급여 수준에서 높은 소화율을 나타내었고(quadratic effect, P=0.03 & P= 0.01; cubic effect, P<0.001 & P=0.01), 종료시의 건물, 질소 및 에너지 소화율은 bio-starch 5% 급여 수준에서 높게 나타났다(P<0.05). 시험 2주의 total protein은 bio-starch 급여 수준이 높아짐에 따라 증가하였으며, 10% 첨가 수준에서 높은 농도를 나타내었다(linear effect, P=0.04; cubic effect, P=0.01). 또한, BUN 농도는 bio- starch 급여 수준이 높아짐에 따라 증가하는 결과를 나타내었다(linear effect, P=0.01). 설사 발생 개체와 지수는 대조구가 bio-starch 처리구에 비해 낮은 경향을 나타내었다. 결론적으로, 본 시험의 결과 이유자돈의 성장단계에 따라 건조 유청을 bio-starch로 5~10% 대체 급여시 생산성에 부정적인 영향을 미치지 않았으며, 소화율이 향상되는 긍정적인 결과를 나타내었다.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of bio-starch from corn processing to replace dried whey in weaned pigs. A total of 120 crossbred [(Landrace×Yorkshire)×Duroc] pigs were weaned at 21 days of age weighing 6.01±0.34 kg in average. Five week feeding trial consisted of phase 1(0~2 wks) and phase 2(3~5 wks). Dietary treatments included 1) CON(basal diet), 2) BS5(whey 5%, partial substitution of bio-starch), 3) BS10(whey 10%, partial substitution of bio-starch) and 4) BS15(whey 15%, partial substitution of bio-starch). There were four dietary treatments with six replicate pens per treatment and five pigs per pen. During the overall period, there were no significant differences in the ADG(average daily gain) and gain/feed ratio among the treatments(P>0.05). However, the ADFI(average daily feed intake) was higher in BS5 and BS15 treatments than in CON treatment(P<0.05). At the 2nd week, dry matter and nitrogen digestibility were increased(quadratic effect, P=0.03 and P=0.01, respectively; cubic effect, P<0.001 and P=0.01, respectively) with the highest at 10% of bio-starch inclusion in the diets. At the last week of the experiment, dry matter, nitrogen and energy digestibility were increased(P<0.05) with the highest at 5% of bio-starch inclusion in the diets. At the 2nd week total protein concentration was increased(linear effect, P=0.04; cubic effect, P=0.01) with the highest at 10% of bio-starch inclusion in the diets. Also, BUN(blood urea nitrogen) was increased(linear effect, P=0.01) as the level of bio-starch inclusion increased in the diets. Fecal consistency score was inclined to lowers CON treatment than other treatments. In conclusion, the result of trial indicates that bio-starch can be included at the level of 5~10% of weaning pig diet replacing part of the dried-whey, and digestibilities were positively affected by bio-starch at growth stage.
