THE pH OF SPRAY-DRIED BLOOD MEAL DOES NOT INFLUENCE NURSERY PIG PERFORMANCE
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of spray-dried blood meal and its pH on nursery pig performance. Spray-dried blood meal pH decreases as storage time increases prior to spray drying. In Exp. 1, addition of 2.5% spray-dried blood meal to the diet improved ADG and ADFI in nursery pigs (15.4 lb to 35.9 lb), but did not influence feed efficiency. In Exp. 2, the inclusion of 5% spray-dried blood meal improved feed efficiency without affecting ADG or ADFI. The pH (7.4 to 5.9 in Exp. 1 and 7.6 to 5.9 in Exp. 2) of the blood meal did not influence growth performance.

Effects of Irradiation of Spray-dried Blood Meal and Animal Plasma on Nursery Pig Growth Performance
Two trials were conducted to determine the effects of irradiation of spray-dried blood meal and animal plasma on nursery pig growth performance. In Exp. 1, irradiation of spray-dried blood meal resulted in improved ADG and F/G and tended to increase ADFI for the 14 d experiment. The majority of the increase in growth performance occurred during the first week of the trial. In Exp. 2, ADG and AD...
متن کاملComparison of spray-dried blood meal and blood cells in diets for nursery pigs.
We used a total of 680 pigs to compare spray-dried blood meal and blood cells in nursery diets. In Exp. 1, 350 barrows (17 +/- 2 d of age at weaning) were used to compare three levels of spray-dried blood meal or blood cells (2.5, 5.0, and 7.5%) in the diet fed from d 5 to 19 postweaning (6.6 to 9.9 kg). Inclusion of either blood product improved ADG (P < 0.005) and G:F (P < 0.001) compared to ...
متن کاملEFFECTS OF INGREDIENT AND WHOLE DIET IRRADIATION ON NURSERY PIG PERFORMANCE Swine Day 2001
Two trials were conducted to determine the effects of irradiation of individual ingredients or the whole diet on growth performance in nursery pigs. The response was similar for both trials with pigs fed diets containing irradiated spray-dried animal plasma or soybean meal having increased (P<0.05) ADG compared with pigs fed the control diet with no irradiated ingredients or the complete diet t...
متن کاملMitigating DON Through Optimal Use of Blood Plasma in Nursery Diets
Previous research showed that nursery pigs fed deoxynivalenol (DON) contaminated diets supplemented with spray-dried porcine plasma (SDPP) had similar growth rate and feed intake as those consuming noncontaminated diets. In this study, two blocks of 100 weanling pigs were used to determine the optimal inclusion level of spray-dried bovine plasma(SDBP) required in nursery diets contaminated with...
متن کاملUse of pet food-grade poultry by-product meal as an alternate protein source in weanling pig diets.
Three experiments were conducted to evaluate pet food-grade poultry by-product meal (PBM) as a replacement protein source for fish meal (FM), blood meal (BM), and spray-dried plasma protein (SDPP) in weanling pig diets. In the first study, 200 crossbred pigs (initial BW = 6.5 kg) were weaned (21 d) and randomly allotted to one of four dietary treatments, which included a control and three test ...
متن کاملEffects of fermented soybean meal and specialty animal protein sources on nursery pig performance.
In 2 experiments, 602 pigs were used to evaluate the effects of fish meal, fermented soybean meal, or dried porcine solubles on phase 2 nursery pig performance. In Exp. 1, nursery pigs (n = 252; PIC TR4 x 1050; 6.8 kg initial BW and 7 d after weaning) were fed: 1) a control diet containing no specialty protein sources and the control diet with 2) 5% fish meal, 3) 3.5% dried porcine solubles, 4)...
