Plush K, Weaver A, Staveley L, Van Wettere W
Animals (Basel) . 2018 Oct; 8(10). PMID: 30360384
Piglet hypoxia during farrowing is common and can lead to increased stillbirth rates, reduced piglet vitality, and an increased risk of preweaning mortality. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO₄) has successfully been used...

J Anim Sci Biotechnol . 2017 Feb; 8:14. PMID: 28149513
Background: In this experiment, intermittent suckling (IS) with or without the co-mingling (CoM) of piglets was studied as a method to stimulate solid feed intake and reduce post-weaning stress. Methods:...
