Generally, dietary fibre (DF) includes lignin, non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) and resistant starch (RS). In monogastric species, low levels of dietary fibre in the diet are associated with various diseases and high levels reduce nutrient digestibilities. In this study, the effects of different types and levels of NSP (soluble: beta-glucan, insoluble cellulose) and resistant starch on mucin secretion and endogenous nitrogen and amino acid losses in pigs were. investigated., A total-of 25 five-week-old-weaner pigs (9.5 kg +/- 1.5 kg), were randomly allocated to each of five experimental diets. Different levels of purified barley beta-glucan (BG) extract (5 or 10% of Glucagel(R) beta-glucan, providing 4 or 8% of BG in the diet), and resistant starch (RS) (8.3 or 16.6% of Hi-Maize(TM), providing 5 or 10% RS in the diet) were substituted for wheat starch in a purified diet in which enzymatically-hydrolysed casein was the sole source of protein. The diets were fed for 21 days. No statistically significant difference between treatments (p>0.05) was observed for growth performance and organs weights. No difference in ileal starch digestibility was observed between pigs on the cellulose or beta-glucan diets. However, as the level of resistant starch in the diet increased the ileal starch digestibility decreased (p
