NOVUS Reveals the Overlooked Threat Impacting Animal Performance and What You Can Do About It

Trypsin inhibitors (TIs) in soybean products are a silent threat to poultry and swine production. Despite high-heat processing, research shows that these anti-nutritional factors often remain active, impairing protein digestion, reducing amino acid absorption, and ultimately decreasing feed efficiency.

NOVUS is bringing clarity to this challenge and outlines how nutritionists and producers can protect animal performance by understanding, testing for, and addressing TIs in soybean meal.

What You’ll Learn

  • Why trypsin inhibitors still exist in processed soybean meal
  • The difference between Kunitz and Bowman-Birk inhibitors and why that matters
  • Global insights from NOVUS’ exclusive TI Database
  • The impact of TIs on growth, digestion, and pancreatic stress in poultry and swine
  • Practical strategies for mitigating TIs through smarter ingredient selection and feed formulation

Why This Matters

Soybean meals are too valuable to waste.

Whether you’re formulating diets for young animals or aiming to optimize protein utilization in grower-finisher phases, understanding TI content is key to unlocking full performance potential. This document delivers evidence-based insights to help you:

  • Improve feed efficiency
  • Reduce costly nutrient wastage
  • Make informed decisions on soybean sources and processing quality
