Factors involved in the development of boar taint [PDF]
Boar taint has been mainly associated with the presence of androstenone and skatole in adipose tissue of entire male pigs. This work was focused on the effects of breed, age, hormonal status, and diet composition on boar taint level. The results showed that skatole levels in entire male pigs varied considerably with age, and the degree as well as the ...
