Integrative approach using liver and duodenum RNA-Seq data identifies candidate genes and pathways associated with feed efficiency in pigs
(Springer Nature, 2018-01-11)
This study aims identifying candidate genes and pathways associated with feed efficiency (FE) in pigs. Liver and duodenum transcriptomes of 37 gilts showing high and low residual feed intake (RFI) were ...
Effect of phytase, carbohydrase, and protease addition to a wheat distillers dried grains with solubles and rapeseed based diet on in vitro ileal digestibility, growth, and bone mineral density of grower-finisher pigs
(Elsevier, 2018-07-07)
The use of rapeseed meal (RSM) and wheat distillers dried grains with solubles (wDDGS) in pig diets is increasingand dietary supplementation with exogenous enzymes has been suggested as means of improving ...
A novel glucuronoxylan hydrolase produced by fermentation is safe as feed additive: toxicology and tolerance in broiler chickens
(Elsevier, 2018-09-25)
The current study presents a safety evaluation of a novel glucuronoxylan hydrolase (EC 3.2.1.136) from Bacillus subtilis produced in Bacillus licheniformis. The glucuronoxylan hydrolase preparation did ...
In vivo safety evaluation of the Clostridium butyricum MIYAIRI 588 strain in broilers, piglets, and turkeys
(SAGE Publications, 2019-02-11)
Clostridium butyricum MIYAIRI 588 (CBM 588) is a nonpathogenic, anaerobic, gram-positive bacillus characterized by the production of short-chain fatty acids, including butyrate. The safety and tolerance ...
Functionality of a next generation biosynthetic bacterial 6-phytase in enhancing phosphorus availability to weaned piglets fed a corn-soybean meal-based diet without added inorganic phosphate
(Elsevier, 2019-12-10)
The utility of a next generation biosynthetic bacterial 6-phytase (PhyG) in restoring bone ash, bone phosphorus (P) content and performance in piglets depleted in P was evaluated. A total of 9 treatments ...
Spray dried plasma as an alternative to antibiotics in piglet feeds, mode of action and biosafety
(BMC, 2016-07-23)
The use of growth promoting and therapeutic antibiotics in piglet feed has been a concerning subject over the last few decades because of the risk of generating antimicrobial resistance that could be ...
Machine learning applied to transcriptomic data to identify genes associated with feed efficiency in pigs
(BMC, 2019-03-13)
Background: To date, the molecular mechanisms that underlie residual feed intake (RFI) in pigs are unknown. Results
from diferent genome‑wide association studies and gene expression analyses are not ...
Grape seed Proanthocyanidins target the Enteroendocrine system in cafeteria‐diet‐fed rats
(Wiley, 2019-04-12)
Scope The effects on the enteroendocrine system of three different grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) treatments are analyzed in rats on a cafeteria diet for 17 weeks. Methods and results GSPE ...
Relative bioavailability of DL and L-methionine in broilers
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2018-04-12)
Studies on the relative bioavailability (RBV) of DL-Methionine (DL-Met) to
L-Methionine (L-Met) have produced variable results. An experiment was
conducted to determine the RBV of DL to L-Met. A total ...
Effect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. Boulardii and b-galactomannan oligosaccharide on porcine intestinal epithelial and dendritic cells challenged in vitro with Escherichia coli F4 (K88)
(BMC, 2012-01-25)
Probiotic and prebiotics, often called “immune-enhancing” feed additives, are believed to deal with pathogens,
preventing the need of an immune response and reducing tissue damage. In this study, we ...
