Assessing the relationship between pigs’ stress resilience and their behavior in response to weaning
Frontiers in Animal ScienceIntroductionAs pigs are exposed to multiple stressors in production systems, we must understand their ability to be resilient to a range of environmental challenges to maintain production and welfare.

Stress-Induced Phosphaturia in Weaned Piglets [PDF]
Animals, 2020 The weaning period in piglets draws significant attention from researchers, veterinarians, and breeders. A substantial change in diet accompanied by enormous stress has health and welfare implications (abnormal feeding intake, infections, umbilical lesions, etc.).

Stress and antioxidative status of Zovawk piglets at different intervals of weaning
Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2022 Stress and antioxidative status of weaned Zovawk piglets were analysed by estimating stress and antioxidative biomarkers. Cortisol, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (N:L), SOD, GPx, catalase and concentration of GSH, TBARS and FRAP were estimated in blood

The biological stress of early weaned piglets [PDF]
Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2013 Pigs experience biological stress such as physiological, environmental, and social challenges when weaned from the sow. The process of weaning is one of the most stressful events in the pig's life that can contribute to intestinal and immune system dysfunctions that result in reduced pig health, growth, and feed intake, particularly during the first ...

Influence of organic chromium supplementation on the performance of beef calves undergoing weaning-related stress [PDF]
Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2020 : Dietary chromium supplementation before, during, and after weaning was conducted to evaluate the hypothesis that chromium supplementation could reduce weaning-induced cortisol release in beef calves.

Analysis of Serum microRNA Expression Profiles and Comparison with Small Intestinal microRNA Expression Profiles in Weaned Piglets. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Weaning stress induces tissue injuries and impairs health and growth in piglets, especially during the first week post-weaning. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play vital roles in regulating stresses and diseases.

Minimising the stress of weaning of beef calves: a review [PDF]
Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2011 Abstract Weaning of beef calves is usually done abruptly and early compared to the natural weaning of the species, and is associated with simultaneous exposure of calves to a range of social and environmental stressors. Behavioural and physiological responses to weaning indicate detrimental effects on the welfare of these animals.

Stress Response at different Ages of Weaning in Cattle [PDF]
International Journal of Environment, Agriculture and Biotechnology, 2019 Weaning is an inherent husbandry practice in cow-calf beef production systems that impose physical, psychological, and nutritional stressors on calves. In order to characterize the main stressors and corresponding stress responses of calves, two weaning schemes were studied.
