Wheat bran affects the site of fermentation of resistant starch and luminal indexes related to colon cancer risk: a study in pigs

M Govers, NJ Gannon, FR Dunshea, PR Gibson… - Gut, 1999 - gut.bmj.com
BACKGROUND Recent studies suggest that resistant starch (effective in producing butyrate
and lowering possibly toxic ammonia) is rapidly fermented in the proximal colon; the distal …

Ractopamine hydrochloride improves growth performance and carcass composition in immunocastrated boars, intact boars, and gilts

…, BP Mullan, AC Edwards, NJ Gannon… - Journal of Animal …, 2009 - academic.oup.com
The β-agonist ractopamine is a dietary ingredient that improves growth and increases the lean

Dietary lupins (Lupinus angustifolius and Lupinus albus) can increase digesta retention in the gastrointestinal tract of pigs

FR Dunshea, NJ Gannon… - Australian Journal of …, 2001 - CSIRO Publishing
Lupins are high in crude protein, cell wall materials, and gross energy but uncertainty about
the bioavailability of nutrients and adverse effects on feed intake limit their use in the pig …

[HTML][HTML] Maternal supplementation with phytogenic additives influenced the faecal microbiota and reproductive potential in sows

…, RN Kirkwood, VA Torok, YS Bajagai, NJ Gannon… - AMB Express, 2021 - Springer
Sows undergo physiological stress during gestation and lactation, potentially leading to
enteric dysbiosis and reduced reproductive potential. Phytogenic additives (PFs) may improve …

Dietary ractopamine promotes growth, feed efficiency and carcass responses over a wide range of available lysine levels in finisher boars and gilts

…, BP Mullan, AC Edwards, NJ Gannon… - Animal Production …, 2012 - CSIRO Publishing
The aim of this study was to investigate the performance and carcass responses of finisher
boars and gilts offered a range of dietary lysine levels and three levels of dietary ractopamine …

S Prawirodigdo, NJ Gannon… - British Journal of …, 1998 - cambridge.org
Two experiments were conducted to determine apparent ileal digestibility of amino acids (AIDAA)
and nitrogen (AIDN) in cottonseed meal (CSM) and soyabean meal (SBM) fed to …

Current recommended levels of dietary lysine in finisher pig diets are sufficient to maximise the response to ractopamine over 28 days but are insufficient in the first 7 …

…, BP Mullan, AC Edwards, NJ Gannon… - Animal production …, 2012 - CSIRO Publishing
Dietary ractopamine increases lean tissue deposition and responses increase as dose is
increased provided sufficient dietary lysine is supplied. In Australia, diets supplemented with …

[HTML][HTML] Basal diet and indigestible marker influence apparent digestibilities of nitrogen and amino acids of cottonseed meal and soybean meal in pigs

S Prawirodigdo, NJ Gannon, BJ Leury, FR Dunshea - Animal Nutrition, 2019 - Elsevier
This study was to determine the apparent ileal nitrogen (N) and amino acid digestibilities of
