Three diets were prepared: 1) standard protein diet based on corn and soybean meal, 2) high-indigestible protein diet in which autoclaved, low-digestible soybean meal replaced soybean meal in the first diet, and 3) high protein diet where the inclusion rate of soybean meal was greater than that of the other diets. The 3 diets were fed to 18 barrows that were fitted with T-cannula at the ileo-cecal junction (initial body weight\u2005=\u200563.4\u2005\u00b1\u20058.0 kg) in a randomized complete block design with body weight as a blocking factor. Pigs were individually housed in pens and the experiment lasted for 23 d. On days 7 and 21, fecal samples were collected by rectal massage for microbiota analysis. Grab samples of feces were collected on days 20 and 21, and ileal digesta were collected on days 22 and 23 for the determination of energy and nitrogen utilization. Lower apparent ileal digestibility of nitrogen in the high-indigestible protein diet containing autoclaved soybean meal resulted in greater ileal indigestible nitrogen concentration (P\u2005&amp;lt;\u20050.05). Apparent total tract digestibility of nitrogen was lower (P\u2005&amp;lt;\u20050.05), and correspondingly nitrogen concentration and daily fecal nitrogen output were greater (P\u2005&amp;lt;\u20050.05) in the high-indigestible protein diet compared with the other diets. Apparent post-ileal digestibility and hindgut disappearance of nitrogen and gross energy were the greatest (P\u2005&amp;lt;\u20050.05) in the high protein diet, whereas a statistical difference was not observed in those variables between the standard protein diet and the high-indigestible protein diet. Beta diversity metrics of feces in the high-indigestible protein diet on day 21 were different (q\u2005&amp;lt;\u20050.05) from those in the other two diets, which indicates a shift in microbial communities. According to the results of the DESeq2, the direction of microbiota shift induced by the high-indigestible protein diet may have reduced fiber utilization in the hindgut. In conclusion, an increase in dietary ileal indigestible protein concentration increased fecal nitrogen excretion and shifted fecal microbial communities but did not increase nitrogen utilization in the hindgut.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jas\/skac409","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,14]],"date-time":"2022-12-14T22:05:08Z","timestamp":1671055508000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Impact of ileal indigestible protein on fecal nitrogen excretion and fecal microbiota may be greater compared with total protein concentration of diets in growing pigs"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"101","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9214-2724","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jung Yeol","family":"Sung","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Sciences, Purdue University , West Lafayette, IN 47907 , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8204-547X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Timothy A","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Sciences, Purdue University , West Lafayette, IN 47907 , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Darryl","family":"Ragland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, Purdue University , West Lafayette, IN 47907 , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2737-7679","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Olayiwola","family":"Adeola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Sciences, Purdue University , West Lafayette, IN 47907 , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023112010565562200_CIT0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"101054","DOI":"10.1016\/j.psj.2021.101054","article-title":"Orange corn diets associated with lower severity of footpad dermatitis in broilers","volume":"100","author":"Abraham","year":"2021","journal-title":"Poult.
