Effects of dietary lactose levels during different starter phases on the performance of weaning pigs
Lactose content in piglet diets may be a key factor for a successful weaning performance.

Effects of tannic acid supplementation on growth performance, blood hematology, iron status and faecal microflora in weanling pigs
Tannic acid in weanling diets may have a negative impact on piglet performance.
Supplemental zinc reduced intestinal permeability by enhancing occluding and zonula occludens protein-1 (ZO-1) expression in weaning piglets
The use of pharmacological Zn doses in weanling diets for piglets may reduce intestinal permeability against potential pathogens.
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.
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.
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
Organization of the replacements IV
Another convenient option for controlling the replacement entry is to incorporate the information on the breeding chart.
Nutritional value of high-fat oats fed to weaned pigs
High-fat oats may be a suitable feed ingredient for weanling diets.
L-arginine supplementation of milk liquid or dry diets fed to pigs after weaning has a positive effect on production in the first three weeks after weaning at 21 days of age
Liquid feeding piglets after waning with L-arginine supplemented milk have a positive impact on piglet performance.
Early weaning reduces small intestinal alkaline phosphatase expression in pigs
Early weaning decreased small intestinal IAP Vcap, IAP catalytic affinity, and IAP gene expression, and this may in part contribute to the susceptibility of early-weaned piglets to increased occurrence of enteric diseases and growth-check.
The weaned piglet
The new test on animal welfare in swine herds will demonstrate your knowledge on the welfare of weaned piglets.
Farrowing batches: keeping the breeding groups full
In the last chapter we looked at the importance of achieving homogenous farrowing batches (age distribution + nº sows). In this chapter we will begin to see how to achieve this.
Conditions for breeding during weaning
The new test in the welfare section is dedicated to conditions during weaning.
Hormone management (III)
When external administration of the hormonal product is stopped, the levels of progesterone fall.
