Long-term administration of formic acid to weaners: Influence on intestinal microbiota, immunity parameters and growth performance

2017-10-01

Abstract excerpt

The use of organic acids in diets for livestock animals is interest due to their being potentially beneficial in maintaining gut homeostasis and controlling pathogenic bacterial growth. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of two doses of formic acid supplementation for six weeks to weaner pigs. The long-term effects of formic acid were tested for growth performance, microbiota composition in...
