Investigation of the source of haemolytic Escherichia coli infecting weaned pigs [PDF]
Attempts were made to discover the source of strains of haemolytic Escherichia coli infecting weaned pigs on a piggery. The organisms were not detected in the faeces of sows in the farrowing house, or in the in the faeces or intestinal tracts of ...

Metabolomic insights for the authentication and traceability of antibiotic‐free pork: a pilot study
Abstract BACKGROUND Antibiotic‐free production within the meat supply chain is a source of concern since new voluntary label claims need to be authenticated to prevent fraud. Therefore, an untargeted 1H NMR‐based metabolomics approach coupled to unsupervised (principal component analysis) and supervised (orthogonal partial least squares discriminant ...

Effects of ß-Glucan on growth performance and immunomodulation in weaned piglets [PDF]
Seventy-four weaned piglets were used in a 6-week experiment to determine the effects of ß-Glucan on growth performance and immunomodulation of weaned piglets. Piglets were randomly chosen and divided into control and treatment groups.

The response of weaned piglets to dietary valine and leucine
Valine (Val) is considered to be the fifth-limiting amino acid in a maize-soyabean meal diet for pigs. Excess leucine (Leu) levels often occur in commercial diets, which may attenuate the effect of Val deficiency because of an increased oxidation of Val. The objective of the present experiment was to determine the effect of increasing concentrations of

Let's Talk About Bone Cylinders. Taphonomy of Carnivores and Humans
ABSTRACTBone cylinders are a distinctive structure predominantly produced by durophagous carnivoran species during the consumption of long bones, in which the diaphyseal canal remains intact while both epiphyses are removed or consumed. This study evaluates the significance of this morphology, traditionally attributed to extant and extinct hyena ...

Effect of weaning age on cortisol release in piglets
The effect of weaning age on the adrenal cortex, which plays a vital role in the stress response, is currently unknown. Therefore, plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol levels, weights and relative weights of adrenal glands, and steroidogenesis-related protein and enzyme expression levels in piglets weaned on different days were ...
