Dietary prebiotics, milk fat globule membrane and lactoferrin affects structural neurodevelopment in the young piglet

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2016
Introduction: Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) and lactoferrin have been identified as two components that have potential to affect neurodevelopment. While concentrations of some MFGM constituents in infant formulas are within human milk range, they may ...

Alternative farrowing systems: design criteria for farrowing systems based on the biological needs of sows and piglets [PDF]

, 2010
The construction of a suitable farrowing environment is a continuing dilemma: the piglet's needs must be matched with those of the sow and the farmer during the main phases that constitute farrowing: nest building, parturition and lactation. Difficulties

Evaluation of Dietary Bovine Milk Fat Globule Membrane Supplementation on Growth, Serum Cholesterol and Lipoproteins, and Neurodevelopment in the Young Pig

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2019
Introduction: Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) is a protein- and phospholipid-rich membrane that surrounds the lipid droplet in milk. We have previously reported that a diet composed of a combination of prebiotics, bovine MFGM (bMFGM), and lactoferrin ...

Porcine intestinal glycosphingolipids recognized by F6-fimbriated enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2014
One important virulence factor of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli is their ability to adhere via fimbrial adhesins to specific receptors located on the intestinal mucosa. Here, the potential glycosphingolipid receptors of enterotoxigenic F6-fimbriated E.

Effect of oxytocin administration at different time points during parturition on the farrowing process in sows

Journal of Applied Animal Research, 2023
Oxytocin is commonly used to shorten farrowing duration in sows. Therefore, determining the optimal time for this application is necessary. This study investigated the effects of oxytocin administration at different time points during parturition on the ...
