Dietary Qi-Weng-Huangbo powder enhances growth performance, diarrhoea and immune function of weaned piglets by modulating gut health and microbial profiles

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionThe evolution of nutritional strategies to improve the gut health and microbiota profiles of early-weaned piglets is essential to reduce diarrhoea caused by weaning stress.

Dietary ellagic acid supplementation attenuates intestinal damage and oxidative stress by regulating gut microbiota in weanling piglets

open access: yesAnimal Nutrition, 2022
Intestinal oxidative stress triggers gut microbiota dysbiosis, which is involved in the etiology of post-weaning diarrhea and enteric infections. Ellagic acid (EA) can potentially serve as an antioxidant supplement to facilitate weaning transition by ...

Development of a Precision Feeding System with Hierarchical Control for Gestation Units Using Stalls

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
To obtain good productive performance, sows have different nutrition requirements at different gestation periods. However, in gestation stalls, conventional feeders have large relative errors, management is difficult because of the large numbers of sows,

Modulation of Gut Microbial Community and Metabolism by Dietary Glycyl-Glutamine Supplementation May Favor Weaning Transition in Piglets

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in diet nutrient metabolism and maintaining host health. The synthetic dipeptides glycyl-glutamine (Gly-Gln) used as diet supplementation to improve the weaning transition of newborns could be metabolized by certain ...

Statistical modelling of voluntary feed intake in individual Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Precision feeding aims to provide the correct amount of feed to farmed animals for optimal growth and performance and to avoid feed waste. However, knowledge underlying the meal-to-meal variability in voluntary feed intake of farmed species is still ...

AIoT Precision Feeding Management System

open access: yesElectronics, 2022
Different fish species and different growth stages require different amounts of fish pellets. Excessive fish pellets increase the cost of aquaculture, and the leftover fish pellets sink to the bottom of the fish farm. This causes water pollution in the fish farm. Weather changes and providing too many or too little fish pellets affect the growth of the

Estimating Amino Acid Requirements in Real-Time for Precision-Fed Pigs: The Challenge of Variability among Individuals

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
This study aimed to measure protein deposition (PD) in pigs fed with daily tailored diets where either dietary lysine (Lys) or threonine (Thr) were provided at independent levels (ignoring an ideal ratio).

Feeding Behavior of Finishing Pigs under Diurnal Cyclic Heat Stress

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
The impact of cyclic heat stress (CHS) and turning the lights on and off on pig feeding behavior (FB) was investigated. The FB of 90 gilts was recorded in real-time under two ambient temperatures (AT): thermoneutrality (TN, 22 °C) or CHS (22/35 °C).

Standardized Preparation for Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in Pigs

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The intestine of pigs harbors a mass of microorganisms which are essential for intestinal homeostasis and host health. Intestinal microbial disorders induce enteric inflammation and metabolic dysfunction, thereby causing adverse effects on the growth and
