Abstract The objective of this experiment was to determine the effect of different inclusion levels of corn starch and fine ground corn with different conditioning temperature or die thickness on pellet quality. Experiment 1, treatments were arranged in 3×2 factorial design of corn starch inclusion level (0, 5 and 10%) and die thickness (4mm×13mm and 4mm×22 mm). Experiment 2, treatments were arranged in 3×2 factorial design of fine ground corn inclusion level (0, 10 and 20) and conditioning temperature (80 and 85°C) with treatments pelleted using a 4mm×22mm die (5.6 L:D). In both experiments, treatments were pelleted using a model CL-5 CPM pellet mill (Crawfordsville, IN). The result of experiment 1 demonstrated that there was no interaction between corn starch inclusion level and die thickness on modified pellet durability index (PDI), (P=0.636). Increasing die thickness from 12.7 to 22.2 mm increased PDI from 43 to 70% (P< 0.001). There was a linear decrease (P< 0.001) in PDI as the corn starch inclusion level increased from 0 to 10% (64, 60, and 46%, respectively). The result of experiment 2 demonstrated that there was no interaction between fine ground corn inclusion level and conditioning temperature on PDI (P=0.541). The fine ground corn inclusion level did not impact PDI (P=0.298). Increasing conditioning temperature from 80 to 85°C increased PDI (P< 0.001) from 76 to 85%, respectively (P< 0.001). Based on the results, the use of pure corn starch was not an effective binding agent in the feed when the diet contains at least 60% ground corn. The ratio of small corn particles to large corn particles in the diet did not impact pellet quality when the diets were conditioned above 80°C for 35 sec and then pelleted with a 5.6 L:D die. Increasing die thickness and conditioning temperature improved pellet quality.

Abstract This experiment determined the effects of die thickness and conditioning temperature on pelleting and starch characteristics in diets containing conventional or Enogen® feed corn (Syngenta Seeds, LLC). Treatments were arranged as a 2 × 2 × 3 factorial of corn type (conventional [CON] and Enogen® feed corn [EFC]), die thickness (5.6 and 8.0 length:diameter [L:D]), and conditioning temperature (74, 79, and 85°C). Diets were steam conditioned and pelleted (CPM Model 1012-2) with a 4 × 22.2 mm or 4 × 31.8 mm pellet die. Conditioner retention time was set at 30 s and production rate was set at 15 kg/min. All treatments were replicated on 3 separate days. Data were analyzed using the GLIMMIX procedure in SAS (v. 9.4, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC). Increasing die L:D improved PDI (P=0.01) and increased (P=0.02) energy consumption. Increasing conditioning temperature from 74 to 85°C increased (linear, P< 0.03) PDI (84.2, 84.9, and 88.2%, respectively) and tended to decrease energy consumption (quadratic, P=0.07). There was a corn × conditioning temperature interaction (P=0.01) for gelatinized starch in conditioned mash. Enogen® feed corn diets steam conditioned at 85°C had the greatest quantity of gelatinized starch. Cooked starch of conditioned mash was greater (P< 0.01) for EFC diets compared to CON diets and increased (linear, P< 0.01) with increasing conditioning temperature. Starch gelatinization was greater (P< 0.01) in pelleted EFC diets (13.4%) compared to CON diets (11.7%) and was increased (linear, P=0.05) by increasing conditioning temperature from 74 to 85°C (12.0, 12.1, and 13.4%, respectively). Pelleted diets containing EFC had increased (P< 0.01) cooked starch compared to CON diets. In conclusion, increasing die L:D and increasing conditioning temperature improved PDI. Starch gelatinization was increased when diets were pelleted at the highest conditioning temperature of 85°C, and EFC diets resulted in greater gelatinized starch.

Abstract This experiment evaluated the effects of pellet die thickness and conditioning temperature on microbial phytase stability. Treatments were arranged as a 2 × 3 factorial of die thickness (5.6 and 8.0 length:diameter [L:D]) and conditioning temperature (74, 79, and 85°C). Phytase was added to a corn-soybean meal-based diet. The diet was steam conditioned (245 × 1397 mm Wenger twin staff pre-conditioner, Model 150) and pelleted (CPM Model 1012-2) with a 4 × 22.2 mm (5.6 L:D) or 4 × 31.8 mm (8.0 L:D) pellet die. Conditioner retention time was set at 30 s and production rate was set at 15 kg/min. All treatments were replicated over 3 days. Conditioned mash and pellet samples were collected and immediately placed in an experimental counter-flow cooler for 15 min. Samples were analyzed for phytase activity and pellet durability index (PDI). Conditioning temperature, hot pellet temperature (HPT), and production rate were recorded throughout each processing run. Data were analyzed using PROC GLIMMIX in SAS (v. 9.4), with pelleting run as the experimental unit and day as the blocking factor. There was no evidence (P >0.14) for any die thickness × conditioning temperature interactions. Pelleting with the 8.0 L:D die increased (P < 0.01) HPT (83.2 and 84.2°C) and PDI (81.9 and 89.7%). Increasing conditioning temperature from 74 to 85°C increased (linear, P< 0.03) HPT (80.1, 83.6, and 87.5°C , respectively) and PDI (84.3, 84.9, and 88.2%, respectively) and decreased (linear, P< 0.01) phytase stability from 97.1 to 35.8% in conditioned mash and from 60.8 to 25.9% in cooled pellets. There was no difference (P >0.72) in stability due to die thickness. Results of this experiment demonstrated phytase stability decreased linearly as temperature rose above 74°C. Although the thicker pellet die increased HPT and PDI, the rise in HPT was not great enough to reduce phytase stability.

Abstract This experiment determined the effects of die thickness and conditioning temperature on pelleting and starch characteristics in diets containing conventional or Enogen Feed corn (Syngenta Seeds, LLC). Treatments were arranged as a 2 × 2 × 3 factorial of corn type [conventional (CON) and Enogen Feed corn [EFC]), die thickness [5.6 and 8 length:diameter (L:D)], and conditioning temperature (74, 79, and 85 °C). Diets were steam conditioned (Wenger twin staff preconditioner, Model 150) and pelleted (CPM, Model 1012-2) with a 4- × 22.2-mm (L:D 5.6) or 4- × 31.8-mm (L:D 8) pellet die. Conditioner retention time was set at 30 s and production rate was set at 15 kg/min. All treatments were represented within three replicate days. Pellets were composited and analyzed for gelatinized starch and pellet durability index (PDI). Conditioning temperature, hot pellet temperature, production rate, and pellet mill energy consumption were recorded throughout each processing run. Data were analyzed using the GLIMMIX procedure in SAS (v. 9.4, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC) with pelleting run as the experimental unit and day as the blocking factor. Pelleting with a larger die L:D improved PDI (P = 0.01) and increased (P = 0.02) pellet mill energy consumption. Increasing conditioning temperature from 74 to 85 °C increased (linear, P < 0.03) PDI and tended to decrease energy consumption (quadratic, P = 0.07). There was a corn × conditioning temperature interaction (P = 0.01) for gelatinized starch in conditioned mash. Enogen Feed corn diets steam conditioned at 85 °C had the greatest quantity of gelatinized starch. Cooked starch in conditioned mash and pellets was greater (P < 0.01) for EFC diets compared to CON diets and increased (linear, P < 0.01) with increasing conditioning temperature in conditioned mash. Similarly, starch gelatinization was greater (P < 0.01) in pelleted EFC diets compared to CON diets and was increased (linear, P = 0.05) by increasing conditioning temperature from 74 to 85 °C. In conclusion, increasing die L:D and increasing conditioning temperature improved PDI. Starch gelatinization was increased when diets were pelleted at the highest conditioning temperature of 85 °C, and EFC diets resulted in greater starch gelatinization than conventional corn.

Abstract Previous research has indicated that starch gelatinization during the pelleting process is greater for Enogen® Feed corn compared to conventional yellow dent corn. Increasing starch gelatinization in the pellet increases the starch digestibility in the pig, which potentially leads to increased growth rate. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the effects of feeding Enogen Feed corn in meal or pellet form on finishing pig growth performance and carcass characteristics. A total of 288 pigs (53.0 ± 0.5 kg) were used with 8 pigs/pen and 9 pens/treatment in a 72-d study. Treatments were arranged in a 2×2 factorial with main effects of corn source (Enogen Feed corn or conventional yellow dent corn) and diet form (meal or pellet). Main effects of corn source and diet form as well as their interactions were tested. Pelleting parameters were established with a target conditioner temperature of 82.2°C and corn moisture of 13 to 14%. When pelleting the diets, the conditioning temperature for conventional yellow dent corn averaged 68.4°C and Enogen Feed corn averaged 67.7°C. The hot pellet temperature for conventional yellow dent corn averaged 75.1°C and 75.8°C for Enogen feed corn. For overall performance (d 0 to 72), no interactions between corn source and diet form were observed (P > 0.05). There was a tendency (P < 0.10) for slightly improved average daily gain (ADG) and gain:feed ratio (G:F) for pigs fed conventional yellow dent corn compared to those fed Enogen Feed corn. Pigs fed pelleted diets had increased (P < 0.001) ADG, G:F, and hot carcass weight compared to pigs fed meal diets. In summary, feeding pelleted diets to finishing pigs increased ADG and G:F compared to those fed meal-based diets. There were no major differences observed between corn sources or interactions between corn source and diet form on growth performance.

Isolates of Escherichia coli and Clostridium perfringens from beef and Aeromonas hydrophila from fish were examined for their ability to survive and grow as cross-contaminates on nonnative tissues at simulated ambient (35°C) and aging/conditioning (15°C) temperatures of handling and retailing found in the tropics. Growth of all isolates over a 10-h period was greater (P < 0.05) on their native tissues at both temperatures. The aging/conditioning temperature effectively limited growth of E. coli and A. hydrophila to less than l-logl0 CFU/g and prevented growth of C. perfringens on beef and fish samples. All three isolates demonstrated characteristic mesophilic growth response on both tissues at 35°C during the 10-h retail period. The study suggests that two muscle food products could be jointly handled to efficiently use available storage/haulage capacity in tropical countries. Potential savings in space, labor and energy would be made if cross-contamination between the two products is minimized by available packaging and sanitizing technologies.
