A 35-day growth trial was conducted to determine the threonine: lysine ratio necessary to optimize growth performance of the segregated early-weaned (SEW) pig. Twelve experimental diets included two levels of lysine (1.15% and 1.5% digestible lysine) and six digestible threonine:lysine ratios (50, 55, 60, 65, 70, and 75%) in a 2 x 6 factorial arrangement. Growth performance was improved by feeding 1.5% digestible lysine, rather than 1. 15% digestible lysine. However, growth performance was not improved by increasing dietary threonine. These data indicate that the threonine requirement is no more than 50% of digestible lysine.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November …

Early-weaned pigs (weaned at 7 to 14 d of age) that are managed in a conventional, one-site production system require a more complex diet in the transition phase (11 to 15 lb) than early-weaned pigs that are managed in a segregated early weaning (SEW), multiple-site, production system.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 16, 1995
Influence Of Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Immune Challenge And Diet Complexity On Growth Performance And Acute-Phase Protein Production In Segregated Early-Weaned Pigs (1995), K Q. Owen, M M. Chengappa, Frank Blecha, Robert D. Goodband, Jim L. Nelssen, Michael D. Tokach, Steven S. Dritz
Influence Of Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Immune Challenge And Diet Complexity On Growth Performance And Acute-Phase Protein Production In Segregated Early-Weaned Pigs (1995), K Q. Owen, M M. Chengappa, Frank Blecha, Robert D. Goodband, Jim L. Nelssen, Michael D. Tokach, Steven S. Dritz

When eating the same amount of feed, pair-fed pigs were more efficient at using nutrients for growth than pigs injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Approximately 2/3 of the decreased growth of LPS-challenged pigs was due to decreased ADFI and 1/3 was due to decreased feed efficiency (F/G). Determining the optimum diet complexity for a nursery feeding program will depend on the desired balance between growth performance. and feed cost per lb of gain but appears to be independent of immune response to inflammatory challenge. On a practical basis, this suggests that nursery diet complexity should not be influenced by health status.; …

Wheat Gluten And Spray-Dried Plasma Protein Blends For Nursery Pigs (1995), L L. Burnham, I H. Kim, Robert H. Hines, Joe D. Hancock

Using a 50:50 blend of spray-dried plasma protein (SDPP):spray-dried wheat gluten (WG) (i.e., with each as approximately 4% of the diet) gave the greatest ADG and ADFI, while reducing diet costs compared to the control diet (i.e., 8% SDPP). Even with a slight decrease in efficiency of gain, the marked decrease in diet cost will yield better cost of gain with a 50:50 blend versus using only SDPP.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 16, 1995

In Vitro Branched Chain Amino Acid Oxidation By Porcine Mammary Tissue (1995), B T. Richert, Robert D. Goodband, Michael D. Tokach, Jim L. Nelssen

Mammary secretory tissue from six (three each of parity 1 and 2) lactating sows (d 10 to 17 of lactation) was obtained via biopsy for in vitro incubation to determine CO2 production fr01TI individual branched chain amino acids. Carbon dioxide production levels as percentages of the 14C-labeled amino acid metabolized by the mammary tissue were 2.57, 1.86, and 4.07% for isoleucine, leucine, and valine, respectively (P<.03). These results indicate that, in the lactating sow mammary gland, valine has the greatest oxidation rate of the branched chain amino acids.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 16, 1995

Two hundred sixty-six weanling pigs (initially 12.461b and 21 d of age) were used in a 34-growth, immune status, blood parameters, and liver mineral status.. Pigs were fed either a control diet, 3,000 ppm zinc (Zn) in phase I and 2,000 ppm Zn in phase II and III, 250 ppm copper during the entire trial, or a combination of these three diets. These results support our current recommendations of adding zinc oxide in diets of pigs weighing up to 25 lb and copper sulfate in diets fed to pigs from 25 to 50 lb.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 16, …
