چکیده

In the past several years, consumer demand has forced the swine industry to select for an animal with increased percent lean and higher lean accretion rates. Paylean is a technology that has been shown to increase carcass leanness while improving growth performance when fed to finishing pigs. It has been documented that average daily gain (ADG) and feed efficiency (F:G) are improved when feeding Paylean to finishing pigs, and these improvements increase as the dose of Paylean is increased. It has also been documented that improvements in carcass leanness are also observed, and these improvements increase as the dose of Paylean is increased. These improvements in growth performance and carcass characteristics have also been shown across many different genetic lines of pigs.

Evaluation of an Updated Model to Describe the Compositional Growth of Pigs Fed Paylean

Pork producers have the goal to efficiently produce lean, quality pork to compete with alternative animal products. The implementation of lean value carcass pricing systems has led to the selection of pigs with increased lean growth rates, increased carcass lean percentages, and improved lean feed conversion. Health, nutrition, and facility management strategies have been implemented to increas...

Alterations of triglyceride and cholesterol in response to Aloe vera gel extract in HepG2 cells and hyperlipidemic guinea pigs

Aloe vera is well-known for its pharmacological and nutritional properties. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of A. vera gel extracts on the secretion and cell content of triglyceride (TG) and cholesterol (TC) in HepG2 cells and their short-term effects on the dietary hyperlipidemic guinea pig model. The effects of increasing concentrations of A. vera crude gel and its al...

And Allow for More Specific Nutritional Recommendations. Feeding Rac- Potential Impact of Ractopamine on Environ- Mental Stewardship

Several research trials have evaluated the impact of ractopamine (RAC, Paylean r , Elanco Animal Health) on barrows and gilts of various genetic populations (GP). Overall, the desirable response of RAC to increase daily carcass lean gain, improve feed efficiency, and increase carcass lean percentage has been observed in GP of substantially different lean growth rates and carcass lean percentage...
