This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of a commercial enzyme mixture providing xylanase and protease activities on the di gesfibility of dietary nutrients when added to diets based on peas and wheat and fed to 9.5 to 15 kg pigs.Pigs were weaned at 18 to 21 days of age and fitted with a simple T-cannula at the distal ileum,6 to 7 days after weaning.After 5 to 7 days for adaptation to their diets,ileal digesta,and feces were collected.Enzyme supplementation had no effect on the apparent ileal or fecal digestibility of any dietary nutrient.There Was a numerical improvement(P＞0.05)in the ileal digestibility of fiber.In conclusion.xylanase and protease appeared to be ineffective in improving nutrient digestibility when supplemented in diets based on peas and wheat fed to weaned pigs.
