In the in vitro experiment, 2-step and 3-step in vitro disappearance procedures were employed to determine in vitro Ileal Disappearance (IVID) and in vitro Total Tract Disappearance (IVTTD) of nutrients, respectively, in corn, a Soybean Meal-Wheat Mixture (SBMW), RWR and the experimental diets used in the in vivo experiment. In the in vivo experiment, 3 Jeju Island native pigs fitted with a T-cannula in the distal ileum with an initial mean body weight of 74.8±5.4 kg were individually housed in pens equipped with a feeder and a nipple drinker. A replicated 3×3 Latin square design was employed with 3 dietary treatments, 6 periods and 3 animals. Three experimental diets based on the corn and SBMW with a constant ratio (corn:SBMW = 3.06:1) were formulated to contain 0, 15 or 30% of RWR. All diets contained 0.5% chromic oxide as an indigestible index. Korean RWR had greater IVID of Dry Matter (DM) than corn and SBMW (p}, journal = {American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
