Early deposition of n-3 fatty acids from tuna oil in lean and adipose tissue of fattening pigs is mainly permanent
Fish oil may be a useful ingredient to enrich pork with n-3 fatty acids, independently of the supplementation period.

Intestinal physiology and peptidase activity in male pigs are modulated by consumption of corn culture extracts containing fumonisins
The presence of secondary metabolites in the diet like fumonisin may compromise intestinal physiology and enzyme activity in weanling piglets.
Dietary supplementation with 0.8% L-Arginine between days 0 and 25 of gestation reduces litter size in gilt
Dietary L-Arginine supplementation may negatively affect gilt reproductive performance.
Evaluation of the effect of increasing dietary vitamin E in combination with different fat sources on performance, humoral immune responses and antioxidant status of weaned pigs
Immune response or triglyceride and cholesterol levels in plasma are influenced by the fat source fed rather than the level of vitamin E in weanling pig.
Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) seed as an n-3 fatty acid source for finishing pigs: Effects on fatty acid composition and fat stability of the meat and internal fat, growth performance, and meat sensory characteristics
The use of chia seed in the finishing swine diets may change the fatty acid profil of pork.
Effects of dietary lactose levels during different starter phases on the performance of weaning pigs
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate dietary lactose levels during different starter phases on growth performance, nutrient digestibility and fecal microbial populations.
Effects of dietary glycyl-glutamine on growth performance, small intestinal integrity, and immune responses of weaning piglets challenged with lipopolysaccharide
Dietary glycyl-glutamine supplementation may alleviate the negative effects on growth and on the inmune system of a challege in early weaned piglets.
Assessment of vitamin E levels, selenium levels and presence of viral pathogens as the etiology of mulberry heart disease
The objective of this study was to determine a possible relationship between Mulberry Heart Disease (MHD) and the levels of vitamin E, selenium, and 13 other minerals, in heart and liver tissues, as well as to carry out PCR tests on heart tissues in order to determine the existence of a possible relationship between viral pathogens and MHD.
Nutrient digestibility of soybean meal fed to growing pigs is affected by the soybean variety used
Amino acid digestibility and concentration of digestible and metabolizable energy in soybean meal produced from conventional, high-protein, or low-oligosaccharide varieties of soybeans and fed to growing pigs
Inflammation-associated responses in piglets induced with post-weaning colibacillosis are influenced by dietary protein level
Forty piglets (average body weight = 5.32 kg) were used to investigate the effect of dietary crude protein (CP) content on immunological responses following a challenge with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) K88.
Nutritional value of aquatic ferns (Azolla filiculoides Lam. and Salvinia molesta Mitchell) in pigs
Although having a suitable mineral and AA content for swine nutrition, the use of aquatic plants in pig diets is limited by their low energy and crude protein digestibility.
Comparison between computerised liquid feeding and ad libitum dry feeding for sows during lactation
Liquid feeding during lactation may increase feed intake without affecting piglet performance
Body weight gain and nutrient utilization in starter pigs that are liquid-fed high-moisture corn-based diets supplemented with phytase
Dietary phytase addition to liquid feeding weanling piglets may improve nutrient digestibility, bone strength and mineralization
The effects of branched-chain amino acid interactions on growth performance, blood metabolites, enzyme kinetics and transcriptomics in weaned pigs
The excess of Leucine in piglet diets may affect the catabolism branched-chain amino acids limiting their availability
Growth performance and nutrient digestibility in pigs fed wheat distillers dried grains with solubles-based diets supplemented with a multicarbohydrase enzyme
The use of a carbohydrase enzyme blends on wheat DDGS based diets may improve nutrient digestibility in pigs
Direct and indirect transmission of four Salmonella enterica serotypes in pigs
Feed-borne spread of Salmonella spp. to pigs has been documented several times in recent years in Sweden. Experiences from the field suggest that feed-associated serotypes might be less transmittable and subsequently easier to eradicate from pig herds than other serotypes more commonly associated to pigs.
