Summary: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the suitability of corn DDGS as a protein source for European catfish. The results showed that corn DDGS is a beneficial protein source for European catfish and 30% DDGS can be included in their diet without compromising growth performance and nutrient utilization.

Summary: Three experiments were conducted to compare the digestibility and energy content of corn protein with corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) for weanling pigs. The results showed that corn protein had higher digestible amino acids and energy levels, supporting the inclusion of up to 10% corn protein in weanling pig diets.

Summary: In this study, the TMEn, AA digestibility, and P availability in conventional corn distillers dried grains with solubles (C-DDGS) and reduced phosphorus DDGS (RP-DDGS) were evaluated. The results showed that the total and digestible P content in RP-DDGS was greatly reduced compared with C-DDGS, and the digestibility and bioavailability of the P in C-DDGS were affected by the type of experimental assay and dietary Ca level.

Summary: This study compared the effects of increasing the Trp:Lys ratio in diets containing DDGS and a DDGS withdrawal strategy on growth performance and carcass fat iodine value. The results showed that increasing the Trp:Lys ratio improved growth performance and carcass fat iodine value, while the DDGS withdrawal strategy reduced carcass fat iodine value and increased growth rate.

Summary: A study was conducted to investigate the effects of heat treatment and heat treatment combined with citric acid on the nutrient digestibility of whole stillage for growing pigs. The results showed that heat treatment or heat treatment combined with citric acid improved the energy digestibility of the stillage, but reduced the digestibility of amino acids.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the digestible energy, metabolizable energy, and standardized ileal digestibility of amino acids in different maize co-products for swine. High yeast and protein co-products showed higher energy and amino acid digestibility compared to other conventional co-products.

Summary: Metabolism and digestibility trials were conducted on broiler chickens to determine the nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolizable energy and standardized ileal amino acid digestibility of high-protein dried distillers' grains and corn bran with solubles. The results showed that the AMEn values for high-protein dried distillers' grains and corn bran with solubles were 3,334 kcal/kg and 2,083 kcal/kg, respectively. The SIAAD values and digestible concentrations varied for different amino acids in both feed ingredients.

Summary: The addition of dried distillers' grains with solubles (DDGS) in cows' diet can reduce the intake of dry matter, crude protein, and non-fibrous carbohydrates, but has no effect on energy intake, and may increase nutrient digestibility.

Summary: This study utilized fractionation and enzymatic hydrolysis to improve oil recovery from dried distillers grain with solubles (DDGS), achieving a significant increase in oil content without the need for changes in current ethanol plant design. The combination of cellulase and protease enzymes showed the highest oil recovery rate, indicating promise for increasing profits in ethanol plants operating on slim margins.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of feeding diets containing dried distillers' grains with solubles (DDGS) on the performance and milk composition of cows. The results showed that the inclusion of DDGS in the diet reduced the intake of dry matter, crude protein, and non-fibrous carbohydrates, while increasing the intake of ether extract and neutral detergent fiber. However, the energy intake remained unchanged. The digestibility of nutrients and fiber increased with the inclusion of DDGS. The inclusion of DDGS also led to an increase in the concentration of cholesterol before and after feeding. Milk production, energy corrected milk, protein content, and milk urea nitrogen concentration were not affected by the inclusion of DDGS, but milk fat content decreased linearly.

Summary: Dried distillers' grains with solubles (DDGS) are a main byproduct of bioethanol production used as livestock feed. The protein and amino acid composition of DDGS vary due to different parent feedstock and processing conditions. Various extraction methods have been explored to isolate specific proteins from DDGS, with potential non-food uses such as biodegradable biomaterials.
