The results show the importance of the FA composition in colostrum on the growth of piglets.
Energy value and use of glycerol for growing pigs
The objectives of the present study were to determine the DE, ME and NE of glycerol, glycerol urine content and effect of glycerin level on growth performances and carcass characteristics.
Supplementing sows with a zootechnical feed additive decreases fecal shedding of bacteria and improves calostral immunoglobulin concentrations and litter performance
The use of a zootechnical feed additive during gestation may reduce microbial pathogens in feces and improve IGA concentration in calostrum.
Quinoa hull meal affects on piglet performance and intestinal epithelial physiology
Saponin-enriched diets may affect intestinal permeability but this not alter piglet performance.
Effects of dietary seaweed extract supplementation in sows and post-weaned pigs on performance, intestinal morphology, intestinal microflora and immune status
SWE supplementation post-weaning provides a dietary means to improve gut health and to enhance growth performance in starter pigs.
Use of plant extract of H. cordata and T. officinale in finishing pigs
The dietary inclusion of Houttuynia cordata and Taraxacum officinale leads to an improvement of the growth performance, inmune defense and meat quality in finishing pigs.
Effects of the physical environment, animal traits, feeder and feed characteristics on the feeding behaviour and performance of growing-finishing pigs
These results may contribute to the improvement of the welfare and performance of growing-finishing pigs by a better knowledge of the influence of the rearing environment.
Antibiotics in feed improve feed intake and decrease humoral immune response in healthy pigs
The effects of some antibiotics on the intestinal microbiota does not explain a growth-promoting effect.
Dietary supplementation with L-Arginine partially counteracts serum metabonome induced by weaning stress in piglets
Arginine has a key role in metabolism regulation in weanling pigs.
Effects of adding cracked corn to a pelleted supplement for nursery and finishing pigs
The use of cracked corn in pelleted diets may improve performance and reduce gastric ulcer scores in fattening pigs.
