Six isonitrogenous, isocaloric diets containing commercially defatted, toasted and lightly toasted soy flours (SF) (diets 1 and 2) and four soy protein concentrates (SPC) (diets 3–6) as replacements for 40% of animal protein were fed to satiation to juvenile shrimp ( Penaeus vannamei ) for 10 weeks. The SPCs used in diets 3 and 5 were chemically modified products with reduced trypsin inhibitor (TI) content. The chemical modification of SF in diet 2, which resulted in an SPC for diet 3, and of SPC in diet 4 consisted of heating at 70°C for 1 hr with 50 mM Na 2 S 2 O 5 , followed by dialysis to remove salt residues. To keep all diets isocaloric, cornstarch was added to replace the oli‐gosaccharides lost during processing to an SPC. The TI contents, in mg TI/g diet, were 0.77, 6.14, 0.64, 1.40, 0.92 and 1.72 for diets 1–6, respectively. Shrimp fed lightly toasted SF had the highest weight gain, which was significantly higher than shrimp fed SPC diets 4, 5 and 6, but not significantly higher than shrimp fed diets 1 and 3. No significant difference was observed in survival rates. Shrimp fed diet 3 (with lowest TI) had the highest body percentages of crude protein, while toasted soy flour diet 1, also with low TI, had the lowest content of this constituent. In general, a high body protein reflects good health of the animal and excellent utilization of the feed. At the replacement levels of soy evaluated, TI content did not affect overall weight gain.
