ABSTRACTNitrogen balance was measured in a series of experiments to determine the optimum balance between lysine, threonine and methionine plus cystine by successive additions of the free amino acids to a basal diet of barley, soya bean meal and tallow. The basal diet had a calculated digestible energy (DE) value of 14·5 MJ/kg and a crude protein content of 146 g/kg. The ranges of total lysine; threonine and methionine plus cystine tested were (g/kg) 6·6 to 11·8, 4·9 to 6·9 and 4·3 to 71, respectively. Latin-square designs were used involving a total of 33 pigs. Nitrogen utilization was optimized in pigs of 3 to 9 weeks of age when each kg of diet contained 10·5 g lysine, 6·4 g threonine and 5·0 g methionine plus cystine, corresponding to a ratio of 100: 61: 48. Thereafter, five diets were formulated in which the same ratio was maintained, but at different protein levels (129 to 192 g/kg). Again the diets were based on barley, soya bean meal and tallow supplemented with free amino acids. These diets were compared, in both nitrogen balance and performance experiments, with a conventional early-weaning diet with a protein content of 240 g/kg. All six diets had the same calculated DE value (14·5 MJ/kg). The N balance experiment was of Latin-square design and involved 18 pigs, and the performance experiment used 36 pigs fed individually from 3 to 9 weeks of age. A diet containing 0·99 g lysine per MJ DE (14·4 g lysine and 192 g balanced protein per kg) was considered to be adequate on the basis of the growth rate and food conversion efficiency results obtained.

Fiore Sardo is a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) cheese produced in Sardinia (Italy) from raw sheep’s milk, presenting risk factors due to an accumulation of Biogenic Amines (BA). A total of 37 Fiore Sardo cheese samples produced in 19 dairy farms were collected from local retail stores to evaluate BA content and its relationship with free amino acids (FAA) and composition. The following were determined for each sample: pH, water activity, composition (moisture, dry matter, NaCl, protein and fat content). FAA and BA, after extraction, were determined by HPLC-FL. The total BA content in Fiore Sardo PDO cheese samples was 127±87 mg 100 g-1, ranging between 6 and 366 mg 100 g-1. Tyramine showed the highest concentration (82±51 mg 100 g-1), followed by putrescine (21±26 mg 100 g-1). Moreover, cadaverine, histamine, β-phenylethylamine and tryptamine were detected at concentrations lower than 10 mg 100 g-1. Overall 54% of the samples analysed exceeded the threshold of 90 mg 100 g-1 for total BA content, posing a potential risk for consumers. BA, total FAA (2233±764 mg 100 g-1) and pH were positively correlated (P≤0.01) between themselves, whereas BA content was not correlated with aw, humidity and percentage of NaCl. The hierarchical cluster analysis results, considering 37 samples and 6 variables, detected four different groups. Samples with BA ≥200 mg 100 g-1 were distributed in two groups characterized by a higher proteolysis indicator levels (FAA, pH) but significantly different for aw, humidity and NaCl concentration. The results showed that high levels of BA were detectable in some samples of Fiore Sardo PDO cheese, suggesting that effective technological conditions at production should be adopted.
