The present research work, the aim of the study was to determine through an in – vivo digestibility test the apparent digestibility and estimate the digestible energy of the processed (dried and ground) passion fruit peel and seed. Two different diets were used in the study to feed guinea pigs: T1 (100% passion fruit peel, dry and ground) and T2 (90% passion fruit peel + 10% passion fruit seed, both dried and ground). Twelve improved male type 1 guinea pigs (Peru line) with seven weeks of age and average weight of 816.42g, randomly distributed in metabolic cages, using six animals per treatment. The food offered, residual food and amount of excreta were controlled for a period of five days. To determine digestibility, the direct method was used for the passion fruit peel and the indirect method for the passion fruit seed, the gross energy was determined by a calorimetric bomb. The apparent digestibility coefficients obtained for the processed passion fruit peel were: 89.47% dry matter, 87.36% protein, 74.70% fat, 89.84% fiber, 89.83% ELN and 90.12% ash. And the apparent digestibility coefficients obtained for the processed passion fruit seed were: 47.06% dry matter, 66.04% protein, 97.38% fat, 25.77% fiber, 67.70% ELN and 37.26% ash. Likewise, the digestible energy content on dry basis of the processed (dried and ground) passion fruit peel and seed were 3.65 Mcal/kg and 6.24 Mcal/kg respectively. In conclusion, that processed (dried and ground) passion fruit peel and seed are ingredients with a great energy contribution due to their high content and efficient digestibility of the extract of nitrogen and a high fat content respectively
