Determination of the optimum standardised ileal digestible sulphur amino acids to lysine ratio in weaned pigs challenged with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
2017-05-01
Abstract excerpt
This experiment tested the hypothesis that pigs challenged with an enterotoxigenic strain of E. coli (ETEC) would require a higher sulphur amino acids (SAA) to Lys ratio (SAA:Lys). Pigs (n=120) weighing 7.4±0.52kg (mean±SD) and weaned at 27 d (Pietrain genotype, mixed sex) were stratified into 1 of 6 treatments based on weaning weight, sex and genotype for the F4 fimbria receptor (n=20). Five diets were formulated...
