Genotype by feeding regimen interactions for slaughter traits in rabbit and expected responses under restricted and full feeding
(Wiley, 2022-05-12)
The interaction between the genotype and feeding regimen (G×FR) for slaughter traits was estimated from data corresponding to 2557 animals under full (FF) and 2424 with restricted feeding (RF). Expected ...
Use of re-esterified palm oils, differing in their acylglycerol structure, in weaning-piglet diets
(Elsevier, 2015-04-27)
Re-esterified oils are new fat sources obtained from chemical esterification of acid oils with glycerol (both economically interesting by-products from oil refining and biodiesel industries, respectively). ...

Animal Welfare and Meat Quality Assessment in Gas Stunning during Commercial Slaughter of Pigs Using Hypercapnic-Hypoxia (20% CO2 2% O2) Compared to Acute Hypercapnia (90% CO2 in Air)
(MDPI, 2020-12-20)
Animals must be stunned before slaughter to avoid fear, pain, and distress. In pigs, the most extensively used method is exposure to hypercapnia (high (>80%) concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2)). ...
