resulted in improved ileal true digestibility (TD) of protein. Petroleum spirit-extracted dehulled soybean (TI 58.4 mg/g DM) was adjusted to 780 g/kg DM and heated alone or with either sodium metabisulphite (11.8 g/kg DM) or cysteine (15 g/kg DM) for 25, 35, 55 or 75 minutes at 95C. Reactive SH, determined by reaction with 4-vinyl pyridine and HPLC separation, was increased by C and S and decre...
