A total 96 weaning pigs comprising 48 gilts and 48 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 19 Apr 2014 · 7,238 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProphylactic use of Antibiotics is Essential for Fattening Pig Production?Túlio Otávio de Araújo Lima Neto, Letícia Mendonça Rodrigues, Vitor de Oliveira Araújo et al.The demand for animal protein is a fact of relevance for the production systems, especially pork, the most consumed animal protein source in the world. In this sense to ensure the efficient production during the pigs raising the use of Prophylactic Antibiotics (PA) is a common practice, but there is a great potential for the occurrence of resistance to antibiotics. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2018 · 7,599 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStandardized Ileal Digestible Lysine Requirement of 6- to 10-kg Weanling PigsChan Sol Park, Beob Gyun KimThe objective of the experiment was to determine the Standardized Ileal Digestible (SID) lysine requirement for weanling pigs from 6 to 10 kg of Body Weight (BW). A total of 216 weanling pigs with an initial BW of 6.23±0.93 kg were assigned to six diets in a randomized complete block design with five blocks based on BW. Six corn-dried whey-soybean … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 10 Jun 2015 · 7,548 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Dietary Carbadox on Apparent Ileal Digestibility of Amino Acids in Weanling PigsL. L. Stewart, B. G. Kim, B. R. Gramm et al.Problem statement: The objective of this experiment was to determine the effects of carbadox on Apparent Ileal Digestibility (AID) of Amino Acid (AA) by nursery pigs. Approach: Fifteen weanling barrows (initial BW: 9.6 kg) were surgically fitted with a T-cannula in the distal ileum. Animals were randomly allocated to three dietary treatments with five pigs per treatment during a 6- … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,342 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDigestibility of Energy and Crude Protein in Korean Rice Wine Residues Fed to PigsMariette Bessem Akonjuen, Bokyung Hong, Hyunjun Choi, Beob Gyun KimTwo experiments were conducted to determine the digestibility of energy and Crude Protein (CP) in Korean Rice Wine Residues (RWR) using in vitro and in vivo approaches. In the in vitro experiment, 2-step and 3-step in vitro disappearance procedures were employed to determine in vitro Ileal Disappearance (IVID) and in vitro Total Tract Disappearance (IVTTD) of nutrients, respectively, in corn, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 2 Sep 2019 · 8,005 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Bio-based Polyurethane PolymersJahangir Emrani, Ramazan Benrashid, Shahrzad Mohtarami et al.This paper describes the development of new biobased Polyurethanes (PU) starting from swine manure bio-resin and diisocyanates. The bio-resin is produced from swine manure via a hydrothermal process. For sustainability, today, many PUs in new specialized applications, are biobased. In this study, different commercial diisocyanates including MDI, Desmodur W, Desmodur H and Demodur I and swine manure, which is an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2018 · 8,368 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining the Time Required to Detect Induced Sow Lameness Using an Embedded Microcomputer-Based Force Plate SystemBrady McNeil, Julia Calderón Díaz, Caitlyn Bruns et al.Lameness in swine breeding herds is a common cause of compromised animal well-being and economic loss to pig producers. Current lameness assessment methods are subjective and require intensive training. It has been shown that embedded microcomputer-based force plate systems can detect lameness by measuring weight distributions in livestock. The objective of this study was to determine the minimum time required … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 25 May 2018 · 7,616 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Efficacy of a Bio-Based Modifier to Improve the Rheological Properties of Recycled Asphalt ShinglesMohammed Jawad, Elham H. Fini, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThis study investigates the use of Bio-Binder, derived from swine manure, as an additive to improve rheological properties of bitumen extracted from recycled asphalt shingles. Test results show that adding Bio-Binder to Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS) leads to reduced viscosity, modulus shear complex G*, relaxation time RT and segregation. Results illustrated that the derived Bio-Binder additive can remove the negative … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Mar 2017 · 7,152 accessesView PDF Cite
