Gestational Caloric Restriction Alters Adipose Tissue Methylome and Offspring’s Metabolic Profile in a Swine Model
(MDPI, 2024-01-17)
Limited nutrient supply to the fetus results in physiologic and metabolic adaptations that have unfavorable consequences in the offspring. In a swine animal model, we aimed to study the effects of ...
Stunning pigs with nitrogen and carbon dioxide mixtures: effects on animal welfare and meat quality
(Cambridge University Press, 2011-10-10)
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of exposure to the gas mixtures of 70% nitrogen (N2) and 30% carbon dioxide (CO2;
70N30C), 80% N2 and 20% CO2 (80N20C) and 85% N2 and 15% CO2 (85N15C) on ...
Assessing the relationship between the in silico predicted consequences of 97 missense mutations mapping to 68 genes related to lipid metabolism and their association with porcine fatness traits
(Elsevier, 2023-02-24)
In general, the relationship between the predicted functional consequences of missense mutations mapping to genes known to be involved in human diseases and the severity of disease manifestations is ...
Lactic acid bacteria: reviewing the potential of a promising delivery live vector for biomedical purposes
(BMC, 2015-09-16)
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have a long history of safe exploitation by humans, being used for centuries in food production and preservation and as probiotic agents to promote human health. Interestingly, ...
A toxicokinetic study reflecting the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of deoxynivalenol in broiler chickens
(Taylor & Francis Open Access, 2021-06-26)
To identify the specific biomarkers of exposure of DON in chickens, a toxicokinetic study was performed via oral or intravenous application of deoxynivalenol (DON). Doses of 0.75 and 2.25 mg DON/kg of ...
Effect of transport and rest stop duration on the welfare of conditioned cattle transported by road
(Public Library of Science, 2020-03-02)
The effects of providing rest on physiological and behavioural indicators of welfare of cattle being transported by road has not been well studied in North America. New revisions to Canada’s Health of ...
Assessment of unconsciousness in pigs during exposure to nitrogen and carbon dioxide mixtures
(Elsevier, 2012-10-26)
The aim of this study was to assess unconsciousness in pigs during and after the exposure to gas mixtures of 70% nitrogen (N2)
and 30% carbon dioxide (CO2) (70N30C), 80% N2 and 20% CO2 (80N20C) and 85% ...

(BMC, 2019-07-12)
Background: Veterinary remedies are intended to support animals in their recovery from diseases. Treatment outcome
depends not only on the general effectiveness of the remedies themselves, but also on ...
Genome-wide association study for feed efficiency in collective cage-raised rabbits under full and restricted feeding
(Wiley, 2020-07-22)
Feed efficiency (FE) is one of the most economically and environmentally relevant traits in the animal production sector. The objective of this study was to gain knowledge about the genetic control of ...
Supplementation of xylo-oligosaccharides to suckling piglets promotes the growth of fiber-degrading gut bacterial populations during the lactation and nursery periods
(Nature Research, 2022-07-08)
Modulating early-life microbial colonization through xylo-oligosacharides (XOS) supplementation represents an opportunity to accelerate the establishment of fiber-degrading microbial populations and ...
