Summary: The study investigated the impact of soybean protein from different processing on the performance, dietary nitrogen digestibility, cecal fermentation characteristics, and bacterial community in newly weaned piglets. Enzyme-treated soybean meal may enhance the growth performance of weaned piglets via increasing the dietary nitrogen digestibility, preventing protein fermentation in the hindgut, which could promote to protect intestinal health.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of fermenting soybean meal with Enterococcus faecium to replace soybean meal on the growth, digestion, blood profile, and gut microbiota of weaned pigs. The results show that fermented soybean meal supplementation improves growth performance, digestion, and blood profiles of the pigs. It also positively affects the composition of gut microbiota. Overall, replacing soybean meal with fermented soybean meal shows potential for promoting immune characteristics and regulating intestinal health in weaning piglets.

Summary: The study found that replacing soybean meal with fermented cottonseed meal (FCSM) in the diet significantly improved growth performance, immunity, antioxidant properties, and nutrient digestibility of weaned piglets. This improvement may be attributed to alterations in gut microbiota and metabolism.

Summary: Increasing the ratio of amylose in the diet has significant effects on the microbiota and metabolites of the cecum in goats, promoting the abundance of beneficial bacteria. A diet with 50% high amylose was found to have better immunomodulatory effects and maintain a healthier cecal microbiota composition.

Summary: The study indicates that adding fermented dried soybean and fermented rapeseed meal in the diets for weaned piglets positively affects the growth performance and feed conversion rate, while also reducing mortality and incidence of diarrhea. Additionally, these fermented components have a positive impact on the microbiological composition and histology of intestines, leading to improved nutrient digestibility coefficients.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of TSFP on the performance, clinical blood biochemistry, and immunity of sows and piglets. The results showed that the 2% and 3% TSFP groups had better weight gain and feed conversion ratio during gestation. In addition, the 3% TSFP group showed the best weaning litter weight and improved immune function.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of fermented feed on different weaned-day piglets and found that piglets weaned at 21 days had better growth performance and feed conversion, but weaker intestinal barrier function compared to those weaned at 28 days. Supplementation with fermented feed improved feed conversion and intestinal barrier function by modulating the intestinal microbiota in weaned piglets.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of replacing fish meal with enzymatically treated soybean meal on the growth performance, immunity, antioxidant capacity, and fecal microbiota of weaned pigs. The results showed that a diet with only enzymatically treated soybean meal had a positive impact on the growth performance, immune responses, antioxidant capacity, and intestinal microbiota development of weaned pigs.

Summary: Lactic acid bacteria-fermented formula milk has positive effects on the growth performance, intestinal immunity, and microbiota composition of weaned piglets. It improves the average daily gain and feed intake, increases the count of ileal goblet cells and villus-crypt ratio, and enhances the levels of sIgA and lactate. It also regulates the intestinal immune network and secretory function of goblet cells, and leads to the enrichment of lactate-producing and short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria in the intestine.
