Abstract

The objective of this experiment was to explore the effects of different heat treatments on nutritional value, rumen degradation characteristics, small intestinal digestibility and molecular structure of cottonseed protein, and to discuss whether there was a correlation between protein molecular structure and protein nutritional value, rumen degradation characteristics or small intestinal digestibility in cottonseed. Cottonseed was treated by dry heat (heating at 140, 150 and 160℃ for 1 h, respectively), microwave (heating at 700 W for 1, 2 and 3 min, respectively) and γ-irradiation (doses were 30, 45 and 60 kGy, respectively), respectively. The protein nutritional value, rumen degradation characteristics and small intestinal digestibility of different heat-treated cottonseeds were determined by traditional chemical analysis combined with Cornell net carbohydrate-net protein system (CNCPS), nylon bag method and modified three-step in vitro method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) technology was used to analyze the protein molecular structure of different heat-reated cottonseeds, and then to analyze the correlation relationships between protein molecular structure and protein nutritional value, rumen degradation characteristics or small intestinal digestibility in cottonseed. The results showed as follows:1) different heat treatments had no significant effects on protein composition and CNCPS protein components of cottonseed (P>0.05). 2) Different heat treatments extremely significantly affected the rumen soluble part, rumen degradable part, rumen undegradable part, rumen protein effective degradation rate and the contents of small intestinal degradable protein and total degradable protein (P<0.01). With heat treatment time or strength increasing, the rumen protein effective degradation rate and total degradable protein content and the small intestinal digestibility of rumen undegradable protein were gradually decreased, while the small intestinal degradable protein content was gradually increased. 3) Different heat treatments extremely significantly affected amide Ⅰ band peak height and peak area, amide Ⅱ band peak height and peak area, α-helix peak height and α-helix and β-sheet peak height ratio (P<0.01). Except microwave heating at 3 min, other heat treatments all significantly increased the amide Ⅰ band peak height and peak area, amide Ⅱ band peak height and peak area (P<0.05), and 45 and 60 kGy γ-irradiation also significantly increased the α-helix peak height and α-helix and β-sheet peak height ratio (P<0.05). 4) The molecular structure of cottonseed protein was correlated with its nutritional value, rumen degradation characteristics and small intestinal digestibility, and regression equations could be established. The R2 of regression equations for neutral detergent insoluble protein, soluble protein, rapidly degradable true protein, intermediately degradable true protein and slowly degradable true protein all exceed 0.9, but the R2 of part regression equations lowed 0.6. In summary, three heat treatments have effects on the rumen degradation characteristics, small intestinal digestibility and molecular structure of cottonseed protein. Heat treatment can increase the contents of ruminal protein and small intestinal digestible protein, and the effect is the best when the irradiation dose is 60 kGy. The molecular structure of cottonseed protein has a correlation with its nutritional value, rumen degradation characteristics and small intestinal digestibility, and can establish regression equations. However, the R2 of some regression equations is less than 0.6, still need further research.
