Trios-based inquiry into de novo copy number variants in the swine genome

- Copy number variation (CNV) plays an important role in determining multiple phenotypic traits due to these large genomic segments having the potential to disrupt functionally important genomic...

Effects of dietary indole-3-acetate sodium on intestinal morphology, nutrient absorption, and inflammatory responses in weaned piglets

16/02/2026 - Weaning stress can severely damage the piglets’ intestines. Microbial tryptophan catabolites play a vital role in maintaining the health of the intestinal mucosa. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), an...

Enhancing the specificity of gene editing outcomes by using Cas9 variants in porcine embryos

12/02/2026 - The CRISPR/Cas9 technology has improved the ability to introduce targeted modifications in cells and embryos in diverse species. The use of this technology enables the establishment of genetically...

Dietary soybean-derived trypsin inhibitor protein reduces nursery pig performance and may exacerbate F18 enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli disease

05/02/2026 - Soybean-derived trypsin inhibitor proteins (TIU) impair amino acid bioavailability and increase exogenous and endogenous nitrogen flow to the hindgut, thereby attenuating pig growth performance....

Dietary flavor in corn and soybean meal-based diet reduced post-weaning diarrhea by attenuating weaning stress and systemic inflammation of pigs

27/01/2026 - Weaning period is a critical phase in swine production, and is characterized by reduced feed intake, growth retardation, and increased incidence of diarrhea. Supplemental dietary flavor has been used...

Effect of flax seeds and dried herbs or fruits on the dietary value and shelf life of raw and aged meat

- The aim of the study was to determine the effect of a mixed diet containing 2% dried herbs or fruits, with or without the addition of 3% flax seeds, on the quality of pork meat in terms of dietary...

Assessment of the feed additive consisting of Enterococcus lactis DSM 10663 NCIMB 10415 (Oralin®) for calves for rearing, piglets, chickens for fattening, turkeys for fattening, cats and dogs for the renewal of its authorisation (Chevita Tierarzneimittel GmbH)

- AbstractFollowing a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the assessment of the application for renewal of authorisation of the additive Oralin®, a...

ASAS-NANP symposium: mathematical modeling in animal nutrition: agent?based modeling of nutrient requirements and growth performance in growing–finishing pigs for sustainable production systems

18/12/2025 - The nutritional requirements of growing-finishing pigs are based on a complex interplay of parameters like feed intake (FI), metabolism, and other environmental conditions. We developed an...

Evaluation of Agolin® Pig on sow and piglet performance and sow fecal microbial communities during lactation

23/02/2026 - Essential oils are increasingly evaluated as alternatives to antibiotics in swine nutrition. This pilot study investigated the effects of Agolin Pig, a blend of microencapsulated essential oils, on...

Small metabolites vary in sow milk across the course of lactation, while moringa supplementation and cooling sows exposed to heat stress conditions have limited effects

20/02/2026 - This study aimed to characterize changes in small metabolites in sow milk over the course of lactation. The impact of Moringa oleifera leaf powder addition to diet and electronic cooling pads (ECP)...

Effect of Scutellaria baicalensis supplementation on sow milk yield and litter growth performance in Danish sows

23/01/2026 - Scutellaria baicalensis root possesses potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, along with its ability to stimulate mammary cells, thereby enhancing milk yield. The present study...

Assessment of the relationship between lactation feeding patterns, litter performance, and sow characteristics on sow efficiency metrics

30/12/2025 - In U.S. breeding herds, data collection is widespread but often fragmented across systems. While producers rely on performance summaries, integration of these data to improve productivity remains...

Pilot evaluation of sperm mobility for boar fertility classification using machine learning

13/09/2025 - Predicting boar fertility remains a critical challenge for the swine industry, as standard semen quality measures such as motility and morphology do not accurately predict conception outcomes. This...

The European Union Summary Report on Antimicrobial Resistance in zoonotic and indicator bacteria from humans, animals and food in 2023–2024

- AbstractThis report presents the main findings of the 2023–2024 harmonised antimicrobial resistance (AMR) monitoring in Salmonella spp., Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli from humans,...

Effect of genetic line and steroidogenic capacity on response to dietary supplementation of biochar to control fat androstenone levels in boars

06/01/2026 - Boar taint, an unpleasant odor in heated pork, is caused primarily by androstenone accumulation in fat. Previous research demonstrated that biochar (BC), a charcoal-based adsorbent,...

Non-nutritive sweeteners improve growth, reduce diarrhea, and modulate intestinal and systemic metabolism in weaned pigs

14/01/2026 - Lay SummaryEarly weaning is a common practice in pig production, but it can reduce growth, damage intestinal structure and function, and weaken immune function, often leading to diarrhea. In the...

High indigestible dietary protein impairs growth and health status of nursery pigs with Salmonella Typhimurium more than with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli F4 challenge

24/12/2025 - Indigestible dietary protein content is an emerging dietary concept that is thought to be related to adverse intestinal health outcomes and increased incidence of pathogen-related diarrhea in pigs....

Tannic acid-mediated gut microbes for enhanced intestinal immunity in Escherichia coli-challenged weaned piglets

07/10/2025 - Tannic acid (TA) has astringent functions and prevents diarrhea in piglets. This study investigated the mechanism of different TA levels (0, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.25%) in low-protein diets on growth...
