Protein restriction during the growing period on carcass, meat and fat quality of heavy barrows and gilts
Crude protein restriction during the growing period may have a positive impact on meat characteristics for dry-cured products.
Requirement of standardized ileal digestible valine to lysine ratio for 8- to 14-kg pigs
In conclusion, 0.70 SID Val : Lys is suggested as the Val requirement for 8 to 14 kg individually housed pigs.
Low dietary protein decreases ETEC proliferation and attachment in the intestinal mucosa
Low-protein diets with balances amino acid profile decrease ETEC colonization in jejunal mucosa.
Soybean meal can be partly replaced by field pea in weanling diets
Increasing inclusion of field pea reduces dietary crude protein digestibility but without negative impact on performance.
Mussel meal as a protein source for growing pigs
Mussel meal can be used as protein sources in pig diets maintaining performance and meat quality.
Dietary crude protein reduction and AA supplementation affects tissue fatty acid composition in pigs
Fatty acid composition of pork lean and fat may be altered by reducing dietary CP and supplementing AA.
Amino acid digestibility of microbial protein for growing pigs
Microbial protein with high digestible lysine content should be taken into account as a new protein source for swine nutrition.
The ideal ratio of SID threonine:lysine for growing pigs fed low crude protein diets
The optimum SID Thr:Lys to optimize ADG and FCR in growing pigs fed low CP protein diets is around 0.70.
Protein intake but not feed intake affects dietary energy for finishing pigs
The energy values for dietary protein have to be considered for net energy prediction in fattening pigs.
The protein-to-energy ratio is a main driver of growth performance in piglets
Independently of the nature of the nutrient promoting imbalance, dietary protein-to-energy ratio may determine post-weaning piglet performance
Spray-dried animal plasma on weanling pigs administered a PCV2 and M. hyopneumoniae vaccine strategy
Early administration of spray-dried animal plasma may stimulate feed intake in weanling pigs.
Effects of dietary spray-dried egg on growth performance and health of weaned pigs
The addition of spray-dried egg in piglet’s diet may improve improving health and growth rate.
Limited and excess protein intake of pregnant gilts affects body composition and newborn and weanling development in piglets
Dietary protein level during pregnancy may affect fetal and piglet development.
Intrauterine growth retarded progeny of pregnant sows fed high protein:low carbohydrate
Dietary protein:carbohydrate ratio of the diet may affect fetal growth sow’s during pregnancy.
Response of young pigs to feeding potato protein and potato fibre
While potato protein concentrate is well utilized by piglets, potato fibre does not reveal evident health promoting effects.
