Increasing spray-dried animal plasma improved ADG and ADFI quadratically, with the maximum response observed with 2.5% in 21-d-old pigs or 5.0% in 12-d-old pigs. The specialty whey protein concentrate fed from d 0 to 14 after weaning resulted in similar responses as spray-dried animal plasma fed during the same period and may be an effective alternative.SwineStarter pigsSpray-dried animal plasmaHigh-protein whey protein concentrateEvaluation of a high-protein whey protein concentrate and spray-dried animal plasma on growth performance of weanling pigsConference paper
