208 Effect of SID LYS Level with Constant Non-Essential Amino Acids
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Many investigations on the effect of low protein diets reduce crude protein (CP) and have a constant standardized ileal digestible (SID) LYS resulting in reductions in ADG, ADFI, and gain:feed is some cases. This experiment was conducted to determine the impact of maintaining constant non-essential amino acids and changing SID LYS and other essential amino acids. For the experiment, 288 pigs (~22 d of age, 6.61 ± 0.95 kg, 8 replicates/treatment, 6 pigs/pen) were stratified by body (BW) and randomly allotted to one of 6 treatments in a randomized complete block design. Non-essential amino acids were fixed in all diets and synthetic amino acids were added to increase SID LYS from 1.15% to 1.4% while maintaining constant ratios of MET+CYS, THR, TRP, VAL, and ILE to LYS. Diets were corn, wheat, barley, and soy based with 1.1% corn starch in the least SID LYS diet. Synthetic amino acids were added to the diet at the expense of corn starch to maintain non-essential amino acid levels. The CP ranged from 17.8% when SID LYS was 1.15% and 18.6% when SID LYS was 1.4%. Experimental diets were fed for 21 d. Body weight, feed disappearance, visual fecal scores, and visual piglet scores were measured. Visual fecal scores (1 = normal to 4 = watery) and visual pig appearance scores (1 = pale and hairy to 4 = normal color and well-rounded muscle) were assessed on ordered likert scales to determine the probabilities of observing a more normal stool quality and a worse visual appearance, respectively. Performance data were analyzed as a general linear model. Stool quality and visual appearance were analyzed as a generalized linear mixed model. Contrasts were used to test linear and quadratic effects of dietary SID LYS. Results of the experiment are presented in Table 1. Increasing SID LYS with constant non-essential amino acids did not affect ADG or BW. The ADFI was linearly decreased (P < 0.1) and gain:feed was linearly increased (P < 0.0001) with increasing SID LYS (Table 1). Stool quality was not affected. Visual appearance of the pigs was quadratically affected (P < 0.05) by changing SID LYS. Pigs that had consumed diets with the lowest or highest SID LYS had the best visual appearance (lowest probability). The results of the current experiment differ suggest SID LYS may regulate feed intake and nutrient efficiency, but BW gain is not affected when non-essential amino acids are held constant. This differs from cases where CP is reduced, which results are decreased growth in many cases.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
