Interpretive Summary: Effects of dietary medium-chain fatty acid supplementation levels on growth performance, fecal score, energy, antioxidant, inflammatory status, and fecal metabolites of nursery pigs fed high-protein diets
Medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) are known to improve postweaning growth performance in pigs by supporting energy balance and reducing postweaning diarrhea. This study evaluated the effect of increasing dietary MCFA levels up to 1.0%, replacing soybean…
