Dalton Humphrey: BCAAs Requirements in Nursery Pigs | Ep. 68
Description
Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) play a crucial role in the nutrition and health of pigs. Namely, leucine, isoleucine, and valine have to be provided on the diet because they are essential for muscle tissue growth, development, and maintenance in swine. In this episode, Dalton Humphrey, M.Sc., discusses amino acid metabolism and requirements, essentially BCAAs, of nursery pigs.
