The aim of this project is to evaluate the impact of dietary supplementation of amino acids (AA) associated or not with intact protein on the performance, metabolic profile, gene expression and immunological biomarkers of pigs from different body weight categories under sanitary challenge condition. A total of 120 castrated male pigs will be randomly distributed in a 2x4 factorial scheme:…
This project aims to continue the study (JP1) of the factors responsible for the variability of pig performance and thus establish nutritional programs based on the concept of precision nutrition. The health status of animals associated with management practices and ambient temperature has been considered one of the main factors that contribute to this variation. Therefore, the objectives…
Environmental challenges such as heat stress and infectious diseases have continuously prevented modern pig genotypes to achieve their maximum phenotypic potential (protein deposition) prior to slaughter. However, only a limited number of studies have been carried out to understand how the dietary amino acid (AA) supplementation may contribute to minimizing the impact of inflammatory resp…
This project aims to continue the study (JP1) of the factors responsible for the variability of pig performance and thus establish nutritional programs based on the concept of precision nutrition. In the actual context of global warming and livestock production increase in hot climate countries areas, livestock animals will be more and more exposed to heat stress. In addition, the associa…

The objective is to evaluate the effect of the type of zinc (Zn) source and dietary inclusion level on the performance, intestinal morphology, fecal bacterial count, and immune response of newly weaned piglets challenged with Salmonella Typhimurium (ST). Four hundred piglets (weaned at 28 days; initial weight ± 6.0 kg) will be used and evaluated during a 42-day experimental period, follow…
The activation of the immune system requires a greater supply of amino acids (AA), whether ingested through diet or metabolized from muscle tissues. Challenging hygienic-sanitary conditions and stressful factors result in recurrent induction of the immune response, which can be considered one of the main factors contributing to the performance variation of animals, especially in the early…
The objective of the study will be to estimate consumption and growth curves, body composition and digestible lysine requirements for growing and finishing pigs for a line with high genetic potential. The nutritional requirements of the population will be estimated in two experiments simultaneously, using the dose-response (1) and factorial (2) methods. In the first study (1), ninety enti…
Currently, milk pricing is based on milk volume and quality. Milk fat is one of the most important milk components considered in the establishment of the final milk price. Consequently, researchers intend to better understand the effect of nutrition on the milk fat synthesis in the mammary gland. Recent studies showed that amino acid supplementation in diets of dairy cows affects milk fat…
The aim of the project is to evaluate the effect of dietary amino acid supplementation using a Precision feeding system on the performance and body composition of pigs housed under different environmental conditions. 96 female swine will be used distributed in a factorial scheme2×2×2: two environmental conditions (ideal - single-origin animals housed under the ideal condition of room temp…

Lysine pig requirements are influenced by age, sex, genetics, health status, among others. Sexual category is also an important factor in the variability of responses, since immunocastrated animals change their tissue deposition dynamics. In this therefore important to evaluate individual nutritional estimates before and after immunocastration in male pigs with high genetic potential. The…
The activation of the immune system demands a greater supply of amino acids (AA), whether ingested through diet or metabolized from muscle tissue. Challenging hygienic-sanitary conditions and stressful factors result in recurrent induction of the immune response, which can be considered one of the main aspects contributing to the variation in pig performance, especially in the initial gro…
Understanding the nutrient requirements and metabolism dynamics can be an important tool for adjusting nutritional programs to farm animals under a sanitary challenge. Therefore, this project aims to deepen the performance trial previously proposed to FAPESP (Process No. 2019/20150-3) by performing different approaches to the statistical analysis of the experiment data, interpreting, and …
The weaning is a most stressful period in pig production, in the which intestinal dysbiosis reduces the protective action exerted by the commensal microbiota on the intestinal mucosa. Furthermore, the mixing of batches of piglets from different origins in the nurseries can pose a health challenge for good health piglets when housed with animals with poor health status. In a scenario of po…
