Oral administration of N-carbamylglutamate might improve growth performance and intestinal function of suckling piglets
Oral administration of 50 mg/kg BW NCG to newborn piglets improved growth performance, increased the endogenous synthesis of arginine and arginine family of amino acids, jejunal lactase activity and cecal Lactobacillus spp. numbers, and stimulated secretion of ileal sIgA.
