Precision delivery coated butyrate: tackling Salmonella in pigs while increasing performance

2017-07-21 02:00:00| ThePigSite - Industry News

When Salmonella is present in the gastro intestinal tract (GIT) of pigs, it might contaminate carcasses during the slaughter process, and become a source of food poisoning and bacterial gastro-enteritis in humans. While some natural compounds can limit Salmonella growth in vitro, the challenge for feed additive producers is to render them effective in vivo, while maximizing their potential to improve animal health and performance.
