1Data are means of 8 observations, except for the distillers dried grains with solubles diet that was autoclaved for 10 min (n = 7); Values for standardized ileal digestibility were calculated by correcting apparent ileal digestibility values for basal endogenous losses (g/kg of DMI), which were determined by feeding pigs a N-free diet: CP, 21.93; Arginine, 0.68; Histidine, 0.19; Isoleucine, 0.30; Leucine, 0.50; Lysine, 0.31; Methionine, 0.08; Phenylalanine, 0.30; Threonine, 0.66; Tryptophan, 0.15; Valine, 0.43; Alanine, 0.71; Aspartic acid, 0.77; Cysteine, 0.21; Glutamic acid, 0.98; Glycine, 2.08; and Serine, 0.62.
