Introduction:Airborne transmission of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) has been known for a long time. Most experiments were performed using type 2 PRRSV and fairly little information is available on the spread of type 1 PRRSV via aerosols. The aim of this study was to compare 3 different air sampling systems for their ability to detect aerosolized type 1 PRRS modified l ...

Introduction: Effects of 5 to 150 ppm gaseous ammonia onto respiratory health and production data in pigs have been described in literature with varying results. Ammonia is known to cause oxidative stress in epithelial cells, to irritate nociceptors and to disturb the mucocillary clearance. In addition, a pH-shift within the epithelial lining fluid covering the airways with the consequence of an e ...

IntroductionFeed cost represents 70% of the total cost of poultry and pork production (Patience et al., 2015); therefore, a number of processing techniques have been developed to maximize utilization of nutrients in feed ingredients and diets for optimum animal growth performance. Oilseed meals are commonly exposed to varying degrees of heat to remove solvents used during oil extraction, increase ...

Thank you Dr. Mroz. You likely know a lot more about Trp and stress than I do. But in some of our experiments with corn protein we demonstrated a close relationship between elevated concentration of Leu in the diet and reduced serotonin in the hypothalamus. This reduction can be partly overcome by adding more Trp to the diet. Because all corn proteins including DDGS have high concentrations of Leu ...

Two experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that different combinations of conditioning and expansion of soybean expellers increases nutritional value. Non-heat-treated soybean expellers (L-1) and soybean expellers conditioned for 60 s at 90ºC followed by expansion at 110ºC (L-2) were used. Two additional sources of soybean expellers (L-3 and L-4) were processed as L-2 ...

Distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) has a high concentration of Leu, and the Trp requirement for growing pigs may be increased if diets contain excess Leu. Therefore, the objective of this experiment was to determine the optimum standardized ileal digestible (SID) Trp:Lys ratio in growing pigs fed diets with excess Leu from DDGS. A diet based on corn, soybean-meal, and 35% DDGS was f ...

U.S. Soy has a large market in animal feed because of its rich nutritional value and its contribution to animal performance. Although alternatives exist, such as corn protein, and a growing supply of synthetic amino acids, research consistently shows that when compared to these alternatives, soy outperforms. Dr. Hans H. Stein, a professor of Animal Science at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Ch ...

1. Introduction The increased awareness of potential negative effects of including antibiotic growth promoters in diets fed to pigs has resulted in an increased interest in producing pigs without using antibiotic growth promoters. However, by eliminating antibiotic growth promoters from diets fed to newly weaned pigs, disease problems may be increased and growth performance may be reduced. In con ...

The 50-year historical review of soybean meal (SBM ) published in Feedstuffs in 1970 by Dr. J.W. Hayward highlighted many of the pertinent advancements concerned with animal nutrition, product development and promotional aspects of U.S. SBM. In fact, 1920 marked not only the beginning of the industrial production of soybean oil and SBM in the U.S., but also the year that the American Soybean Assn. ...
