In order to evaluate the effect of frutooligosaccharide prebiotic addition on performance, incidence of diarrehea and metabolism of weaned pigs, two experiments were carried out. It was used three diets containing 0.2; 0.4 or 0.6% frutooligosaccharide formulated from basal diet (no addition of frutooligosaccharide), totalizing four experimental diets. In experiment 1, 96 weaned piglets (5.89 ± 0.86 kg) were used to evaluate weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion and diarrhea occurrence on the first 15 days of experiment. In the […]
