This also makes the piglets more susceptible to gut diseases. Not only did early-weaned piglets have less IAP in their intestines, but their IAP was also less effective at breaking down nutrients and bacterial toxins. Project support by Agri-Food and Rural Link, Mobilizing Agri-food and Rural Research Knowledge. A program of the OMAFRA-U of G Partnership. http://www.uoguelph.ca/research/omafra/ partnership/KTT_and_IP.shtml |
