Control

The use of antibiotics is not permitted in Switzerland; moreover, no other medication exists to combat European foul brood. Hives with symptoms must therefore be destroyed in order to limit the outbreak, and the contaminated material must be sanitised. Since prevention is the best cure, early detection is desirable. Numerous studies have been undertaken and documents have been created at the Swiss Bee Research Centre and elsewhere to draw the attention of beekeepers to these problems and inform them about the causes and the control measures to be implemented.

Abstract:

The FAO recommends the digestible indispensable amino acid score (DIAAS) to determine protein quality in foods, preferably tested in vivo. Here, the INFOGEST in vitro digestion protocol was applied and supplemented with an analytical workflow allowing the assessment of protein digestibility and DIAAS calculation. The protocol was applied to selected samples WPI, zein, collagen, black beans, pigeon peas, All-Bran®, and peanuts. The total protein digestibility, digestibility of individual amino acids (AA), and DIAAS values were established and compared with in vivo data for the same substrates. Total protein digestibility (total Nitrogen, r = 0.7, P < 0.05; primary amines (OPA), r = 0.6, P < 0.02; total AA, r = 0.6, P < 0.02) and digestibility of individual AA (r = 0.6, P < 0.0001) were in good agreement, between in vitro and in vivo, with a mean difference of 1.2 %. In vitro DIAAS was highly correlated with DIAAS obtained from in vivo true ileal digestibility values (r = 0.96, R2 = 0.89, P < 0.0001) with a mean difference of 0.1 %.
