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 ...
The Optimal Valine to Lysine Ratio for Performance Parameters in Weaned Piglets
(MDPI, 2021-04-27)
The optimal digestible (d) Valine (Val) to d Lysine (Lys) ratio (dVal:dLys) in weaned
piglets was determined using two different regression models. A total of 200 piglets were allotted to
five feeding ...
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 ...
Spray Dried Animal Plasma as an Alternative to Antibiotics in Weanling Pigs
(Asian-Australasian Association of Animal Production Societies, 2010-01-01)
Piglet health at weaning is compromised due to several stress factors. Following the ban of antibiotic growth promoters
new alternatives are required to control these problems. This paper reviews the ...
Use of re-esterified oils, differing in their degree of saturation and molecular structure, in broiler chicken diets
(Elsevier, 2015-07-01)
The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential use of re-esterified oils, differing in their degree of saturation and molecular structure, in comparison with their corresponding acid and ...
Use of re-esterified palm oils, differing in their acylglycerol structure, in fattening pig diets
(Elsevier, 2015-07-02)
Re-esterified oils are new fat sources obtained from the chemical esterification of acid oils with glycerol (both economically interesting by-products from oil refining and biodiesel industries, ...
Use of combinations of re-esterified oils, differing in their degree of saturation, in broiler chicken diets
(Elsevier, 2015-07-01)
Re-esterified oils contain higher proportions of mono- and diacylglycerols, and also higher proportions of saturated fatty acids (SFA) at the sn-2 position of acylglycerol molecules than does a native ...
Eicosapentaenoic acid- and docosahexaenoic acid-rich fish oil in sow and piglet diets modifies blood oxylipins and immune indicators in both, sows and suckling piglets
(Elsevier, 2022-10-03)
Over the last decades, genetic selection has increased sows’ litter size. Consequently, there is a high proportion of piglets born with low weight which are vulnerable. Their viability may potentially ...
Impact of feed additives and host-related factors on bacterial metabolites, mucosal integrity and immune response in the ileum of broilers
(Springer, 2023-05-09)
The present study aimed to investigate the effect of age, breed, and sex of broilers, as well as a probiotic or phytobiotic product on mucosal morphology, bacterial metabolites, and immune traits in the ...
Alterations in bacterial metabolites, cytokines, and mucosal integrity in the caecum of broilers caused by feed additives and host-related factors
(Frontiers Media, 2022-09-12)
A total of 2,880 one-day-old male and female broiler chicks from two breeds, Ross308 and Cobb500 were randomly assigned to 72 pens. Broilers were offered three diets: a wheat-soybean diet without (CO), ...
