In vitro rat pancreatic digestive enzyme activities and raw and heated glandless cottonseed and soybean flours.
Higher nitrogen and lipid digestibilities have been obtained with diets containing cottonseed flour rather than soybean flour. To explain these results, in vitro studies were carried out to compare the effects of raw and heated glandless (without gossypol) cottonseed flours versus soybean flours on pancreatic digestive enzyme activities. These effects were compared with those obtained without addition of flour in standard assays. Apparent lipase (lipase colipase dependent) and potential lipase (lipase with saturating amounts of colipase), colipase, phospholipase A2, amylase, trypsin and chymotrypsin activities were measured on specific substrates. Phospholipase A2 and amylase activities were enhanced, while chymotrypsin activity was diminished with both raw and heated flours. Compared with raw and heated soybean flours, raw and heated cottonseed flours promoted higher potential lipase, chymotrypsin, trypsin and lipase activities. Heat treatment of cottonseed flour enhanced apparent lipase, colipase, chymotrypsin, trypsin activities and diminished potential lipase, phospholipase A2 and amylase activities. When soybean flour was heated, apparent lipase, phospholipase A2, chymotrypsin, trypsin and amylase activities were raised while those of potential lipase were decreased. Our findings show that in vitro raw or heated cottonseed flours affect less digestive enzymes than raw or heated soybean flours, apparent lipase activity excepted. Moreover, only chymotrypsin activities were seriously lowered with both flours, especially with raw soybean flour. Hypotheses are suggested to account for the differences in alterations.
