3) Incorporar una proteasa exógena con capacidad conocida para hidrolizar los inhibidores de tripsina.
La dosis de proteasa podría ser mayor que la recomendada por el fabricante.

properly process the meal to inactivate antinutritional factors, such as trypsin inhibitors and lectins
Heat Treatment (Toasting):
Heat treatment, especially toasting, is essential to inactivate antinutritional factors that are heat-labile.
These factors include trypsin inhibitors and lectins, which can interfere with protein digestion and absorption.
Proper heat treatment also improves the protein solubility and digestibility of soybean meal.
However, it’s crucial to avoid overheating, as this can damage amino acids, particularly lysine, reducing their bioavailability

Thanks for the emphasis on overcooking causing loss of amino acids

Thank you.Thanks for the important advice.

As mentioned by Charuka and the Asia Manager, there are only 3 practical choices to use undercooked soybean meal.
1) Blend it with a properly cooked soybean meal to reduce the amount of heat sensitive antinutritional factors, primarily trypsin inhibitors.
2) Use it for older age birds.
3) Include an exogenous protease with known ability to hydrolyze trypsin inhibitors.
The dose of protease may need to be higher than the manufacture’s recommendation.
A fourth option will be to use the undercooked soybean meal in other species like cattle, or older pigs. Chickens are more susceptible to trypsin inhibitors than other farm animal species.

Thermal treatment.

To minimize the adverse effects of undercooked soybean meal in poultry feed, ensure proper heat treatment during processing to deactivate anti-nutritional factors like trypsin inhibitors
-
1. Proper heat treatment
2. Test for trypsin inhibitor activity (TIA)
3. Use enzyme supplements
4. Fermentation of soybean meal
5. Blend with other protein sources
6. Use with age in mind
-
1. better to use high inclusion level of exogenous protease
2. mix the affected stock with good quality soybean meal to minimize the bad effects

Excellent suggestions!

To minimize the adverse effects of undercooked soybean meal, consider the following:
Strategies
1. *Proper heat treatment*: Ensure soybean meal is heated to a sufficient temperature (usually around 100°C) for a adequate duration to inactivate anti-nutritional factors like trypsin inhibitors.
2. *Adequate cooking time*: Cook soybean meal for a sufficient amount of time to break down anti-nutritional factors.
3. *Use of proper cooking methods*: Use methods like extrusion, roasting, or autoclaving to effectively inactivate anti-nutritional factors.
Benefits
1. *Improved nutrient availability*: Properly cooked soybean meal can provide better nutrient availability for animals.
2. *Reduced anti-nutritional factors

poor digestibility of protein.

To minimize adverse effects from undercooked soybean meal, proper heat treatment during processing is crucial. This inactivates harmful anti-nutritional factors like trypsin inhibitors and lectins. Undercooked meal retains these toxins, while overcooked meal can damage amino acids like lysine, reducing their availability.

UNDERCOOKED SOYBEAN MEAL
The following should be considered as general information only, you should always seek professional advice, specific to your individual circumstances.
Obviously, it is best to avoid purchasing undercooked soybean meal (SBM) in the first place. A Urease Activity (UA) test, that measures residual urease enzyme activity, which correlates with trypsin inhibitor levels (undercooked soybeans retain both enzymes). UA values between 0.05–0.3 pH units are considered optimal; values above this range suggest undercooked soybeans.
Assuming, that you purchased have undercooked soybeans which you must use, the primary goal is to minimize the negative effects of anti-nutritional factors (ANFs), especially trypsin inhibitors, which impair protein digestion and bird performance.
Practical strategies to use undercooked soybeans include:
- Blending undercooked soybeans with properly processed soybeans or other protein sources. The goal is to keep trypsin inhibitor activity below recommended safety thresholds (e.g., <4–5 g/kg in finished feed).
- Younger birds are more vulnerable to ANFs than older birds; prioritize undercooked SBM for grower/finisher feeds.
- Adding protease enzymes to the diet can help degrade residual trypsin inhibitors, improving protein digestibility and reducing the negative effects of under processed soybeans. Lectins, which are heat-labile ANFs that cause gut irritation, impair nutrient absorption, and may trigger immune reactions are resistant to breakdown by proteases.
In the future, request that all SBM delivered to your facility include a certificate of analysis showing urease activity, measured according to recognized standards (e.g., ISO 5506).

To minimize adverse effects from undercooked soybean meal, ensure proper heat treatment to inactivate antinutritional factors like trypsin inhibitors and lectins. This can be achieved through toasting or other forms of thermal processing. Avoid overcooking, which can damage amino acids like lysine. Monitoring urease activity can help assess the adequacy of heat treatment.
