In vitro degradation kinetics of four carbohydrates using ileal and faecal inocula from suckling piglets

Exposure to a solid diet at weaning can lead to changes of gastro-intestinal tract (GIT) fermentation processes which can affect the intra-lumen conditions and the health status of piglets. Fermentation can be manipulated by including fermentable carbohydrates in the diet (Williams et al., 2001). Di...
