Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Dietary Yeasts Enriched with Cu, Fe and Mn on Digestibility of Main Nutrients and Absorption of Minerals by Growing PigsDaniel Korniewicz, Zbigniew Dobrzanski, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing in 1 kg of dry product, separately 32.0 g Fe (Y-Fe), 23.0 g Cu (Y-Cu), 35.4 g Mn (Y-Mn), were used as the source of these microelements in complete diet for growing pigs. If considering livestock requirements, feed supplementation with this organic form of microelements, covered animals’ requirements in: Fe-27%, Cu-75%, Mn-30%. ZnO was the source … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,707 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProphylactic 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 · 7,593 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Various Inclusion Levels of β-Mannanase on Nutrient Digestibility in Diets Consisting of Corn, Soybean Meal and Palm Kernel Expellers Fed to Growing PigsW. B. Kwon, S. K. Park, C. Kong, B.G. KimAn experiment was conducted to determine the effects of various inclusion levels of β-mannanase on the energy and mannan digestibility in diets containing corn, Soybean Meal (SBM) and Palm Kernel Expellers (PKE) fed to growing pigs. The PKE contained 92.6% dry matter, 4,417 kcal gross energy kg-1, 4.02% ash and 31.3% mannan on an as-fed basis. Six barrows with an … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2014 · 7,128 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF NATURALLY PRODUCED DIETARY FUSARIUM MYCOTOXINS ON WEANING PIGSS. Y. Shin, C. Kong, I. H. Kim, B. G. KimMycotoxins reduce animal productivity and animal health. The influence of Fusarium mycotoxins in corn co-products on pig performance is an important issue in swine feed industry. This study was conducted to determine the effects of naturally produced Fusarium mycotoxins in Corn Gluten Meal (CGM) on growth performance of nursery pigs. A total 96 weaning pigs comprising 48 gilts and 48 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 19 Apr 2014 · 7,236 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect 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 · 7,340 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Salmonella typhimurium Challenge on Swine Growth, Nitrogen Balance, Insulin-like Growth Factor-I, and Acute Phase ProteinsJ.A. Loughmiller, S.S. Dritz, J.L. Nelssen et al.Growing barrows were used to determine the effects of an en teric disease challenge on nutrient balance, growth, acute phase proteins, and IGF-I. Pigs were challenged on d 0 with Salmonella typhimurium (S; N=21), or unchallenged and fed ad libitum (A; n=6), or unchallenged and pair-fed the same amount of feed as a challenged pig (P; n=8). Blood was collected … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,552 accessesView PDF Cite
