Soares, J. A., Singh, V., Stein, H. H., Srinavasan, R. and Pettigrew, J. E. 2011. SHORT COMMUNICATION: Enhanced distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) has greater concentration of digestible and metabolizable energy than DDGS when fed to growing and finishing pigs. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 91: 663–667. To better use distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) for non-ruminants, some of the fiber may be removed. The “elusieve” process removes approximately 10% of DDGS material, mostly fiber, yielding enhanced DDGS (E-DDGS). An experiment was conducted to compare the DE and ME in E-DDGS to those in DDGS when fed to growing and finishing pigs. Overall, E-DDGS has greater DE, ME and MEnthan DDGS.
