Zearalenone contamination in swine feed and the effects on reproductive health
… corn, wheat, barley, and rice which are used in swine feed. In addition to cereals, co-products of ethanol distillation, brewing, and baking are frequently re-purposed as swine feed. ZEN contamination has been related to severe reproductive issues including pelvic organ prolapse (POP), which …

Estimation of amino acid digestibility and its usefulness in swine feed formulation
… utility of digestible amino acid values in swine feed formulation has been a subject of debate among nonruminant nutritionists. Unfortunately, little has been done experimentally to compare values obtained for similar feedstuffs by different methodologies or to validate the usefulness of …

Evaluation of pelleting process parameters on feed nutrients, starch gelatinization and pig growth performance
… conditioning time and temperature of swine feed were altered to determine effects of starch, vitamin retention, and swine growth performance. A third experiment evaluated methodologies for estimating gelatinized starch in swine feed. Across all experiments, diet formulation was …

Attracting dark-eyed fruit flies, drosophila repleta (diptera: drosophilidae), in swine facilities using color and odor
… out at the University of Illinois Imported Swine Facility. Pinot Noir red wine, apple cider vinegar, and wet swine feed (the on-site material fed on by the flies) were used in volatile preference field trials. While there appeared to be some color preference in laboratory trials, field color …

Impact of feed additives in swine diets and the effect of corn particle size on metabolizable energy in gestating sows
… were conducted to analyze the effect of 5 feed additives on PEDv and PRRSv in a feed matrix. A fourth study was conducted to analyze the effect of corn particle size on digestible and metabolizable energy in gestating sows. In experiment 1, 5 treatments consisting of a control, or the …

The Effects of Ractopamine Hydrochloride (Paylean) on Efficiency, Carcass Composition, Carcass Quality and Fat Quality in High Lean Growth Pigs
… and carcass characteristics of late finishing swine. Feed efficiency, average daily gain and dressing percentage were all improved (P < 0.05) with the inclusion of RAC. In addition, minimal to no effects were observed for carcass quality characteristics from pigs fed RAC. The effect of RAC on …

Carbohydrate composition, in vitro digestion, and effects of xylanase and phytase on nutrient and energy digestibility by pigs in grains and grain coproducts
… xylanase and phytase supplementation to growing swine diets based on corn, soybean meal, distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS), and wheat bran. In Exp. 1, the apparent ileal digestibility (AID) and apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of energy and nutrients in ileal cannulated …
