Effect of dietary betaine on nutrient utilization and partitioning in the young growing feed-restricted pig.
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of dietary betaine over a range of concentrations (between 0 and 0.5%) on growth and body composition in young feed-restricted pigs. Betaine is associated with decreased lipid deposition and altered protein utilization in finishing pigs, and it has been suggested that the positive effects of betaine on growth and carcass composition may be gr...
متن کاملDietary L-carnitine improves nitrogen utilization in growing pigs fed low energy, fat-containing diets.
Growing pigs (n = 25; 17.8 +/- 0.1 kg) were used to study the effects of L-carnitine and protein intake on nitrogen (N) balance and body composition. Fat-supplemented (40 g soy oil/kg diet), corn-soybean meal basal diets containing low or high protein (136 or 180 g/diet) were formulated so that protein accretion would be limited by metabolizable energy (ME). Each basal diet was supplemented wit...
متن کاملModeling digestibility of dietary phosphorus in growing and finish pigs.
Low P digestibility combined with intensive pig production can lead to water pollution. The aim of this paper was to develop a model able to represent P digestion in pigs across diets and contribute towards the reduction of P excretion. Phosphorus in plant feedstuffs includes some nonphytate P (NPP) that is readily digested but is mostly as organic phytate P (oP) that is indigestible unless it ...
متن کاملPartitioning of Nitrogen over Five Growing Seasons in Tallgrass Prairie
Annual spring burning of tallgrass prairie increases plant biomass production despite losses of N and lower net N mineralization. To better understand how burning influences the cycling of N in prairie, '5N was injected to soil as NH4+, and the partitioning between plant and soil N pools was followed over five growing seasons in annually burned and unburned prairie. Applied '5N was rapidly immo...
متن کاملDietary consistency and the midline sutures in growing pigs.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of reduced masticatory function on midline suture growth and morphology in growing pigs. SETTING AND SAMPLE POPULATION The sample was 20 pigs separated into two dietary groups and raised at the Department of Anthropology, Harvard University. Midline suture specimens were analyzed at the Department of Orthodontics, University ...
