¹Ten growing barrows (initially 25.9 kg) were fitted with a T-cannula in the distal ileum and were randomly allotted to one of five test diets in a 5-period design with 2 replicate pigs per diet in each period for a total of 10 replicates per pig diet.

²Total indispensable AA (IAA) = [1 − (total IAA in the digesta/total IAA in the diet) × (marker in the diet/marker in the digesta)] × 100.

³Total dispensable AA (DAA) = [1 − (total DAA in the digesta/total DAA in the diet) × (marker in the diet/marker in the digesta)] × 100.
