Catechins during gestation
Catechins may exert a successful antioxidative capacity in early gestation improving sow reproductive performance.
Abstracts - Nutrition
Feeding 20% soybean hulls to grower-finisher pigs with or without enzyme supplementation
High inclusion of soybean hulls may be used in finishing diets without without a negative impact on performance.
Energy supplementation to neonatal piglets of low birth weight
Energy supplementation to neonatal piglets of low birth weight may reduce piglet mortality.
Comparing efficacy of different xylanases on wheat or corn co–product diets
Xylanases supplementation of pig diets based coproducts from wheat and corn may improve performance during the growing period.
Effect of feeding different levels of sugar beet pulp on weaning piglets
Proper amounts of sugar beet pulp in weanling diets may improve post-weaning performance.
Iron deficiency and anemia in piglets and the effect of iron status at weaning on post-weaning performance
Consumption of nursery starter feeds containing high concentrations of ZnO is associated with post-weaning anemia.

Amylose/amylopectin ratio affects carcass traits and meat quality in finishing pigs
A high dietary amylose/amylopectin ratio improves growth performance, carcass traits, and meat quality in finishing pigs.
Reference values for immunocrit ratios to assess maternal antibody uptake in 1-day-old piglets
The IR method ascertains whether piglets are receiving adequate maternal antibodies until their own immune systems are developed.
The effect of feeding a diet formulated for developing gilts on lameness indicators and carcass traits
A proper feed restriction during rearing period may be a successful strategy to reduce lameness in gilts.
Environmental impact of replacing soybean meal with rapeseed meal in diets of finishing pigs
Results show that, expressed as per kg of BW, replacing SBM with RSM in finishing pig diets marginally decreased global warming potential (GWP) and energy use (EU) but decreased land use (LU) up to 12%.
Behaviour of fattening pigs fed with liquid feed and dry feed
Pigs performed equivalent in both systems, but from an animal welfare view we recommend dry feed to growing pigs.
Requirement of standardized ileal digestible valine to lysine ratio for 8- to 14-kg pigs
In conclusion, 0.70 SID Val : Lys is suggested as the Val requirement for 8 to 14 kg individually housed pigs.
Data sheets: raw materials and additives
Technical sheets of the main raw materials and additives used in swine feed. They include a comparison of nutritional values from various sources, product
Oral vaccine platform based on the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to combat PCV2
The results presented here demonstrate a possible use for recombinant S. cerevisiae expressing viral proteins as an oral vaccine against PCV2.
Nutrient and energy digestibility of wheat bran at high inclusion levels
Wheat bran inclusion increases hindgut fermentation ileal and faecal digestibility and weight gain in growing pigs.
Effects of sex and dietary lysine on performances and serum and meat traits in finisher pigs
Dietary Lys restriction during finisher period in pigs impaired growth performances and was not successful to increase the carcass fat deposition, although it could have positive effects on the intramuscular fat proportion of pork.
Use of feeding strategies during the suckling period to better thrive the weaning process
Creep-feed and milk formula before weaning improves post-weaning performance.
The influences of weaning age and weight on carcass traits
Carcass quality it is age and weight dependent at weaning.
Effects of dietary 0.5% aniseed extract on milk yield of sows and their offspring
Sow dietary supplementation with aniseed extract during late gestation and lactation improves milk yield and litter performance.

Feeding low energy and high fibre diets increases the concentraction of linoleic acid and iodine value in pork
The use of low energy and high fiber diets reduces the degree of saturation in the fatty acid profile of pork fat.
Moderate changes in the nutrition of gestating sows have no harmful effects on the development of their offspring
Diet deprivation and subsequent over-allowance during gestation does not impair postnatal piglet growth.
Improving nutritional value of pig diets by fermentation and enzyme addition
The overall conclusion is that the nutritional value of alternative diets with NSP-rich ingredients can be improved by fermentation and concurrent addition of NSP–degrading enzymes.
Inclusion of the probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum B2984 in the diet of piglets
The probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum and prebiotic lactulose in the diet enhanced serum antibody responses to S. Typhimurium infection.
NIRS technology can be used as a quick tool to evaluate digestibility
Prediction of dietary nutrient digestibility in pigs by NIRS analysis of fecal content could be used as a suitable tool for swine nutrition.
An evaluation of PEDv survival in individual feed ingredients in the presence or absence of a liquid antimicrobial
Under the conditions of this study, PEDV viability in feed was influenced by ingredient with extended survival in SBM. Furthermore, LA treatment rendered virus inactive, independent of ingredient type.
