Extra lipid supplies before farrowing may improve piglet survival

Response of piglets weaned from sows fed diets supplemented with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) to an Escherichia coli K88+ oral challenge
The use of sow dietary CLA supplementation through late gestation and lactation may improve piglet immunity and health status after weaning
Effect of barley and oat cultivars with different carbohydrate compositions on the intestinal bacterial communities in weaned piglets
Cereal carbohydrate compositon depends on cereal cultivar and may affect gut microbiota in piglets
The effects of dietary chromium (III) picolinate on growth performance, blood measurements, and respiratory rate in pigs kept in high and low ambient temperature
Dietary chromium supplementation do not reduce the negative impact of the thermal stress
The use of animal protein hydrolisate may improve feed palatability of weanling diets
Feed preference at weaning was improved by the inclusion of 1% of animal protein hidrolisate
Effect of dietary fat or starch supply during gestation and/or lactation on the performance of sow, piglets' survival and on the performance of progeny after weaning
Piglet survival at farrowing and at weaning may be improved by sow dietary energy supply during gestation and lactation
Raw potato starch in weaned pig diets and its influence on postweaning scouts and the molecular microbial ecology of the digestive tract
The use of raw potato starch in weanling diets may reduce the negative effects of postweaning diarrhoea
Effects of Porcine Circovirus type 2 and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae vaccination timing and starter diet source on growth performance of nursery pigs
Weanling diet composition and vaccinating time may affect piglet growth performance at weaning
The effect of heated mash on performance and feeding behaviour on newly weaned piglets
Dietary heating may enhance piglet performance by increasing feed consumption just after weaning
Supplemental sodium butyrate stimulates different gastric cells in weaned pigs
The use of sodium butyrate just after weaning may help to stimulate gastric mucosal maturation
Use of plant extracts in swine
The swine production industry has a growing interest in the use of essential oils. Essential oils are products of complex origin. They have antimicrobial and antioxidant effects, they stimulate appetite and intestinal secretions and they are even immunostimulants.
A tryptophan-enriched diet improves feed intake and growth performance of susceptible weanling pigs orally challenged with Escherichia coli K88
Tryptophan supplementation of piglet diets may help to reduce the negative impact of E. coli at weaning
Intestinal metabolism of weaned piglets fed a typical United States or European diet with or without supplementation of tributyrin and lactitol
The supplementation of slowly released tributyrin and lactitol in piglet diets may overcome the adverse effects of vegetable protein sources during the nursery phase
Effect of neonatal iron status, iron injections at birth and weaning in young pigs from sows fed either organic or inorganic trace minerals
Independently of the nature of the Fe source in sow diet, the Fe injection at birth it is critical to achieve optimum growth of piglets
Influence of organoleptic properties of the feed and nursery diets complexity on pre-weaning and nursery performance
The use of complex nursery diets with the same flavour of creep feed may stimulate
feed intake just after weaning
Controlling finisher PCV2 mortality: vaccination results (2/2)
Control of PCV2 infections are increasingly through piglet vaccination now that global supplies are increasing.
