In vivo metabolism of ibuprofen in growing conventional pigs : a pharmacokinetic approach [PDF]
, 2019 The juvenile conventional pig has been suggested as a preclinical animal model to evaluate pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), and safety parameters in children. However, a lot of developmental changes in pig physiology still need to be unraveled.

Phase feeding for growing and finishing pigs (OK-Net Ecofeed Practice Abstract) [PDF]
, 2020 Benefits Phase feeding will more closely match the pig’s nutrient requirements and minimise the over- and underfeeding of nutrients. The feed will be better utilised by the pigs, in favour of both production economy and reduced N-emissions.

Nitrogen and energy partitioning in two genetic groups of pigs fed low-protein diets at 130 kg body weight [PDF]
, 2015 The aim was to evaluate the effect of low-protein (LP) or low-amino acid diets on digestibility, energy and nitrogen (N) utilisation in 2 genetic groups (GG) of pigs (129±11 kg BW). Duroc×Large White (A) pigs were chosen to represent a traditional GG for

Effect of rooting area and drinker in the outdoor run on behaviour and Ascaris infection of organic pigs [PDF]
, 2006 Hygiene is often a problem on the outdoor runs of growing organic pigs. Manure and urine are mainly excreted outside, but spread all over the run. Reduc-ing the dirty surface may improve well being, reduce ammonia emission, improve hygiene and reduce ...

Effect of tannin supplementation on nitrogen digestibility and retention in growing pigs
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010 Two levels (0.25% and 0.5%) of water soluble chestnut tannin were added to the diet of growing pigs in a 40 days feeding trial, from the average body weight of 76kg up to about 110kg. As expected, a significant depression of the apparent digestibility of
