The main objective of the present study was to determine the effect of dietary beta-cyclodextrin (BCD) on reducing the cholesterol content of pork. Twelve swine of 50 kg body weight were randomly distributed into four groups of three heads each and fed experimental diets for 9 weeks until they reached a market weight of 110 kg. They were assigned to the four experimental diets containing 0% (control), 1.5%, 3.0% or 5.0% pure βCD. Daily feed intake, body weight gain and feed efficiency were not significantly different between any of the four group.
