A study was performed to determine if serum-metabolomics could be used to establish a predictive tool for identifying ractopamine misuse in pigs. Ractopamine, a beta-agonist used as growth promoter in livestock, is with great controversy, and it has been forbidden in most countries worldwide. Howeve...

Abstract:

Background: Corn dried distillers’ grains with solubles (DDGS) is a cost-effective alternative feed ingredient in swine diets. However, its negative impact on carcass fat quality, characterized by increased polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and reduced fat firmness, fundamentall...

This study was performed to determine the effects of dietary fat sources, i.e., beef tallow, soybean oil, olive oil and coconut oil (each 3% in feed), on the growth performance, meat quality and gene expression in growing-finishing pigs. The results of this study indicate that the type of dietary fa...

The main goal of swine production is to convert feedstuffs into edible meat whose major component is skeletal muscle. The overall objective of this project is to study the effect of dietary lysine on the gene expression profile of skeletal muscle in late stage finishing pigs. The hypothesis for this...

To investigate effects of long-term intake of RPS on gene expression in the colon and liver of pigs,thirty-six Duroc × Landrace × Large White growing barrows were randomly allocated to corn starch (CS) and RPS groups. Each group consisted of six replicates (pens), with three pigs per pen. Pigs in th...

Background: Supplementing farm animals diet with functional ingredients may improve the nutritional quality of meat products. Diet composition has been also demonstrated to influence the gene expression with effect on biological processes and pathways. However, the knowledge on the effect of nutrien...

Background: monogastric feeding is dependent on conventional feedstuffs such as corn and soybean meal. However, these are increasingly expensive and environmentally unsustainable. Therefore, there is an increasing interest in high quality and sustainable alternative feedstuffs, namely microalgae. Ch...
