Nitrogen metabolism in pigs is closely associated with gut microbiota, but the differential effects of dietary fiber sources on nitrogen metabolism and gut microbiota remain unclear. This study investigated the effects of pectin, β-glucan, arabinoxylan, and cellulose on nitrogen metabolism, fecal microbiota, and metabo...

Dietary protein source is one of the primary factors influencing host nitrogen metabolism and intestinal microbiota. However, conventional diet formulations primarily focus on overall nutritional levels, overlooking the differences in amino acid release rates among various protein sources. This study investigates how d...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation with a triple-strain Bacillus-based probiotic (BP) on growth performance, intestinal barrier function, and gut microbial composition in weaned pigs. A total of 160 piglets (initial body weight, 8.0 ± 0.25 kg; 28 d of age) were randomly assigned to 4...
