Coated ZnO may be a good alternative to start reducing common dietary pharmacological inclusion levels of ZnO.
Lameness and nutrition
This article reviews the effect of components of the diet on the bones and osteochondrosis, this being the main caused of lameness and a reason for the culling of young sows. Therefore, they are important concepts to bear in mind in the diets for the rearing of gilts.
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.
