Vitamins: Essential organic compounds. Classification and naming
Vitamins are essential for proper growth and also for ensuring proper function of the nervous system, immune system, reproductive system, bone development, and cell repair. They do not provide energy, and each vitamin performs particular functions that none of the other vitamins can.
Effect of the probiotic Hungatella hathewayi on host estrogen levels via regulation of gut microbiota and host metabolism in sows
How to combat heat stress in pigs
Pigs are particularly vulnerable to heat stress due to their limited ability to dissipate body heat and genetic selection for higher productivity, which has reduced their heat tolerance. Improved technical results increase heat production, and today's lines produce 30% more heat than those in the 1980s.
Impact of ground herb and essential oil phytobiotics on gut health and growth performance in nursery pigs challenged with F18+Escherichia coli
Antioxidant and osmolyte enriched or energy-dense diet: effect on heat-stressed finishing pigs
Optimal benzoic acid supplementation enhances growth, nitrogen utilization, and carcass traits while reducing ammonia emissions in pigs from weaning to market
Impact of a phytogenic feed additive on diarrhea incidence, intestinal histomorphology and fecal excretion of F4-fimbriated enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in post-weaning piglets
Growing evidence around phytogenics supporting more resilient piglet weaning
One of the major challenges during weaning is post-weaning diarrhea, impacting nearly 25% of piglets in European countries. A promising strategy to boost resilience and help piglets navigate the stress of weaning can be, among others, the use of phytogenics.
Effects of supplemental choline chloride on growth and carcass traits in growing-finishing pigs
Boosting piglet health after weaning: the role of the natural emulsifier glyceryl polyethylene glycol ricinoleate in gut development
Effects of diammonium phosphate supplementation in low-protein diets of growing pigs on growth performance, carcass traits, and meat quality
Mitigating heat stress in pigs: effects of an additive-enriched diet on performance, health, and water intake during hot weather
Orffa's Excential Energy Plus: World's first nutritional emulsifier to secure GFLI certification
This recognition positions Excential Energy Plus as the first Nutritional Emulsifier globally to be independently validated for its environmental footprints.
Sucrose inclusion in sow diets: Does it improve palatability for piglets at weaning?
Mammals, such as pigs, have a keen attraction to sweet tastes. They are able to perceive the five basic tastes: umami, sweet, bitter, sour, and salty. Sugars such as sucrose, glucose, and lactose are especially attractive to them. This trait seems to have evolved as a natural mechanism for detecting high-calorie energy sources.
