    Two studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of spray-dried blood meal and its pH on nursery pig performance. Spray-dried blood meal pH decreases as storage time increases prior to spray drying. In Exp. 1, addition ...
  • Phosphorus availability in dry and high-moisture sorghum grain for growing swine and chicks
    Trotter, M.; Allee, G. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1979)
    We used 117 crossbred pigs and 260 male White Leghorn chicks to determine the availability of phosphorus in high-moisture sorghum grain treated with propionic acid or stored in an oxygen limiting structure, and in field-dried ...
  • Phosphorus levels for growing and finishing swine
    Allee, G.L.; Koch, B.A.; Hines, Robert H. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1974)
    To determine the minimal level of supplemental phosphorus required by growing pig, ninety pigs averaging 34 pounds were randomly assigned from outcome groups to 18 pens representing three replications of six dietary ...

    Hastad, C.W.; Tokach, Michael D.; Goodband, Robert D.; Nelssen, Jim L.; DeRouchey, Joel M.; Dritz, Steven S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2002)
    We conducted three experiments to identify available phosphorus (aP) requirements of pigs reared in commercial facilities. In a pilot study (Exp. 1), 600 gilts (PIC, initially 95.2 lb) were randomly allotted to a low or ...
  • Phosphorus-reducing technologies in swine production
    Boland, Michael A.; Foster, K.A.; Preckel, P.V. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    Soil phosphorus levels have increased as swine production has become concentrated. Phosphorus-based manure management regulations for land application have been proposed by policy makers. The objective of this research ...
  • Pilus genes in Escherichia coli isolated from pigs with diarrhea
    Nietfeld, Jerome C.; Yeary, T. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2002)
    A retrospective survey of the Kansas State Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory records was made for Escherichia coli isolated from pigs with diarrhea. There were 111 E. coli isolates that carried genes for attachment pili ...
  • Plasma and milk oxytetracycline levels in post parturient sows
    Schoneweis, D.; Hummels, S.; Schulteis, L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1981)
    Plasma and milk samples were collected from three sows injected with LA 200 at 4 hours after injection and at 24-hour intervals thereafter. The single dose was calculated at 1 ml/22 pounds.
