The effects of diet form and feeder design on the growth performance of finishing pigs
Wet-dry feeder and pelleting may play an important role on the improvement of ADG and F:G in finishing pigs.
Abstracts - Nutrition
Impact of dietary energy level and ractopamine on growth performance in finishing pigs
The effects of ractopamine on growth performance in finishing pigs is independent of the energy content.
The effect of increasing dietary fibre and the provision of straw racks on the welfare of sows housed in small static groups
The increase in dieterary fiber it is not enough to reduce stereotypic behaviour in static group housed sows.
Effects of folic acid on the performance of suckling piglets and sows during lactation
Folic acid supplementation during gestation may improve milk production, milk quality and piglet performance.
Interaction between dietary tryptophan and pyridoxine on tryptophan in post-weaning pigs
Pyridoxine (5 mg/kg) is not a major factor for Trp metabolism.
Effects of high dietary fibre from by-products diets on plasma metabolites in gestating sows
Replacing starch by dietary fibre changes plasma metabolites profile in gestating sows.

Green kiwifruit modulates the colonic microbiota in growing pigs
Gastrointestinal disorders in pigs could be discouraged by green kiwifruit consumption
Effect of sorghum dried distillers grains with soluble on ground pork from barrows and gilts
Sorghum grain and sorghum dried distillers grains with soluble can be fed to result in high-quality ground pork.
The influence of vitamin D3 in piglets' growth and health
Oral vitamin D3 did not influence growth performance or bone measurements in this study.
Effects of nutrient supply, plasma metabolites, and nutritional status of sows during transition on performance in the next lactation
Piglet survival and piglet body weight gain may be improved by altering the sow’s nutrient supply during the period from late gestation to lactation.
Metabolic effects of dietary sugar beet pulp or wheat bran in growing female pigs
Wheat bran increases the capacity of the intestine for oxidative metabolism and sugar beet pulp induces a repartitioning of body lipid stores.
Effects of short-term feeding of Bt MON810 maize on growth performance, organ morphology and function in pigs
Short-term feeding of Bt MON810 maize to weanling pigs is safe.
Oleate metabolism in pig enterocytes
The high esterification capacity for oleate in the newborn pig intestine preserves the major colostrum fatty acid for delivery to other tissues.
Effect of dietary organic and inorganic selenium in hyperovulatory first-parity gilts
Selenium status of gilts is affected by both the quantity and the source of dietary selenium.
Influence of feed complexity on productive performance and nutrient digestibility of weanling pigs
Healthy weanling pigs do not always need an excess of highly digestible ingredients in the diet.
Quantifying resistant starch using novel, in vivo methodology and the energetic utilization of fermented starch in pigs
Natural 13C enrichment of dietary components may be useful for estimating the proportion of dietary starch fermented in the gastrointestinal tract.
Sulfur concentration in diets containing DDGS: effects on feed preference and performance of pigs
Inclusion of DDGS in diets decreases the feed preference and negatively affects the growth performance of pigs.
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.
Data sheets: raw materials and additives
Technical sheets of the main raw materials and additives used in swine feed. They include a comparison of nutritional values from various sources, product
Texture, color and fatty acid composition of pig shoulder fat due to different dietary fat sources
Fat firmness, but not color, is influenced by sex and dietary fat source.
Effects of protein intakes of pregnant gilts on carcass quality and skeletal muscle and adipose tissue in fattening pigs
Maternal low protein diet impairs prenatal myofiber formation, reducing the potential of postnatal lean growth.
Dietary clays alleviate diarrhea of weaned pigs
Clay products may help to prevent the negative impact of diarrhea in weanling piglets.
Apparent and standardized ileal digestibilities of AA for pigs fed diets at varying crude protein levels
The dietary protein content also affects the standardized ileal digestibility of most amino acids.
Sensory quality of short- and long-term frozen stored pork products
No negative effect on sensory quality is found in short-term frozen stored products when their PUFA content increases.
The effect of graded levels of dietary threonine on nitrogen retention and structure of the small intestine in young pigs
7.4 g threonine per kg covers the requirement of piglets for rapid growth and maximal N retention as well as for supporting gut barrier function.
