Chromium propionate on growth performance and health biomarkers in heat-stressed finishing pigs
Dietary chromium propionate inclusion may benefit growth performance in heat-stressed finishing pigs.
Different sources and levels of dietary Zinc in growing-finishing pigs: performance and carcass characteristics
Independently of the nature of Zn source used, higher levels of added Zn seem to improve pig carcass characteristics.
Supplementation of C. butyricum and B. licheniformis in weanling piglets
Dietary supplementation of C. butyricum might be a suitable alternative to antibiotics and ZnO for weanling pigs.
Comparison of low doses of coated ZnO with pharmacological level of ZnO in weaned pigs
Coated ZnO may be a good alternative to start reducing common dietary pharmacological inclusion levels of ZnO.
Dietary supplementation of protected ZnO in weaned piglets
Protected ZnO may be a successful strategy to reduce dietary Zn supplementation without affecting performance and strongly reducing Zn excretion in weanling pigs.
Determine the adequate amount of dietary phosphorous in growing-finishing pigs
Daily digestible phosphorous supply between 4.6 and 6.7 g fitting a 1.4:1 Ca:P ratio may be enough to achieve a proper growth rate pattern in lean growing-finishing pigs.
Dietary limestone inclusion in weaned piglets and the effects on growth performance, intestinal microbiota and jejunal gene expression
High levels of limestone in weanling diets may affect piglet performance after weaning increasing colonic ecology and intestinal inflammatory response.
Effects of body weight and dietary phosphorus levels on postileal digestion in pigs
Post-ileal digestion of P it is dependent on the age of the animal and the P content in the diets, factors that could difficult the proper p digestibility estimation.
Zinc oxide and arginine interaction affects piglet antioxidant capacity and inflammatory response
The interaction between dietary Arginine content and ZnO supplementation may play a negative impact on the antioxidant capacity and inflammatory response in weanling pigs.
Different dietary calcium levels affect growth performance and bone characteristics in pigs
Compensatory Ca achievement in bone is achieved with high Ca finishing diets in pigs fed low Ca during the growing period.
Palygorskite dietary supplementation effects on back fat mobilization, leptin levels and oxidative stress in sows
The use of palygorskite in sow diets reduces oxidative stress in gestating sows.
Zinc oxide suppress of cytokine gene expression in piglets challenged with Salmonella
Long periods of high ZnO supplementation in weanling pigs may modulate immune response by suppressing the cytokine gene expression in weanling pigs.
Comparison of apparent ileal and total tract digestibility of calcium in calcium sources for pigs
Both AID and ATTD can be used to describe the digestibility of Ca for growing–finishing pigs.
Interaction between Zinc and protein sources may affect Zn bioavailability in gestating sows
Zinc and protein sources do not affect Zn bioavailability in gestating sows when they are included in adequate levels.
Evaluation of a second iron supplementation and the use of zinc oxide in the prevention of iron-deficient anemia in young pigs
The administration of an additional injection of 200 mg of gleptoferron at 2-weeks of age increased piglet Hb.
