Dietary lysine-to-energy ratios for managing growth and pubertal development in replacement gilts

Applied Animal Science, 36(5), 701–714.

By: C. Lents*, C. Supakorn*, A. DeDecker, C. Phillips, R. Boyd n, J. Vallet*, G. Rohrer*, G. Foxcroft* ...

author keywords: gilt; growth; puberty; diet; lysine
TL;DR: Reducing SID lysine–to–ME ratios in gilt diets can increase the number of gilts within optimal BW range at first estrus, but overall pubertal development is delayed if ratios are reduced below 2.8 and 2.1 g in grower and finisher diets, respectively. (via Semantic Scholar)

Growth performance, oxidative stress and immune status of newly weaned pigs fed peroxidized lipids with or without supplemental vitamin E or polyphenols

JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCE AND BIOTECHNOLOGY, 11(1).

author keywords: Antioxidants; Immune status; Lipid peroxidation; Oxidative stress; Piglets; Polyphenols; Vitamin E
