Growth Performance
Two experiments were conducted to determine the optimum standardized ileal digestible (SID) Lys and CP concentrations in finishing pig diets. In Exp. 1, 253 pigs (DNA 600 × 241, initially…
A total of 346 pigs (241 × 600, DNA, Columbus, NE; initially 195.3 lb) were used in a 44-d trial to evaluate the compensatory growth of 200 lb finishing pigs…
…extruded corn-soybean grain blends, replacing soybean meal in weanling pig diets, on pigs growth performance from 21 to 63 d old. Ground corn and the corn-soybean blend (75.27% of ground…
This review provides insight into the effects of the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA: leucine, isoleucine, and valine) on the growth, production performance, immunity, and intestinal health of poultry. Besides providing…

…HP-SBM, on apparent total tract digestibility and growth performance of piglets from 27 to 56 d of age were studied. The experiment compared six different soybean meal treatments where the…
…growth performance compared to pigs on the SBM control diet. Significant transcriptional changes in the skeletal muscle of growing pigs fed RSM diet was likely the consequence of an increased…
…beta-carotene (ROVIMIX® β-Carotene 10%; DSM; NJ, US) on growth performance and vitamin A, D, and E status of nursery pigs (n = 216; 5.81 ± 0.92 kg). The study was…
Providing amino acids (AA) in concentrations that optimize production performance is critical to turkey production. The branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) leucine (Leu), isoleucine (Ile), and valine (Val) are essential AA…
A total of 356 finishing pigs (DNA; 241 × 600; initially 196.3 ± 2.43 lb) were used in a 44-d growth trial to evaluate nutritional strategies to reduce growth rate…
