Four mature lactating Holstein cows fitted with permanent ruminal, duodenal and ileal cannulae were used to study the effect of extrusion at 195 degrees C of beans (Vicia faba cv Castel) on organic matter (OM), nitrogen (N) and starch degradation in the rumen and their flow to and absorption from the small intestine. The test protein sources, raw beans (RB) and extruded beans (EB), provided about 45% of the dietary protein. The diets were composed of 23.1% beans, 56.2% corn silage, 10.1% corn grain and 10.7% Italian rye-grass hay on a DM basis; the diets were isocaloric (4.5 Mcal/kg of DM) and isonitrogenous (14% of DM). Cr-EDTA, YbCl3 and purines were used as liquid, particulate and bacterial markers respectively. Extruding the beans did not influence intraruminal pH (6.6), ammonia-N (99 mg/l) and volatile fatty acids (97 mM/l) concentrations. Apparent digestibility in total tract of energy, OM, N and starch were not affected with inclusion of EB instead of RB, the corresponding mean values were: 66, 68, 64 and 95% of intake. Apparent ruminal digestion of OM, starch and N in the forestomach were 39, 58 and 52% for diets containing RB and 38, 72 and 45% for EB diets; efficiency of bacterial protein synthesis (gN/kg organic matter truly digested in the stomach) was higher for EN diets compared with RN diets (25 vs 22). Eating diets including EB increased non-ammonia-N, bacterial-N and dietary-N flows (g/d) to the duodenum compared with diets containing RB: 409 vs 366, 216 vs 194 and 193 vs 172 respectively; while starch flow was reduced (1.5 vs 2.2 kg/d) and OM flow was unchanged (9.8 kg/d). Apparent digestion from the small intestine (g/d) of nonammonia-N, bacterial-N and dietary-N were higher for EB diets: 268 vs 229, 181 vs 160 and 87 vs 69 respectively; meanwhile, starch digestion decreased (975 vs 1,612). The PDIA, PDIN and PDIE contents (g/kg of DM) of the RB were 33, 175 and 127 respectively; the corresponding values after extrusion were: 58, 147 and 178.
