Currently, all pigs raised on intensive farms develop iron-deficiency anemia if they do not receive supplemental iron at birth. Weaning diets commonly contain high concentrations of iron, and the effect on the copper and ...

The current preventive treatment for iron deficiency in pigs is inefficient, resulting in a high prevalence of iron-deficient or anemic postweaned pigs. The aim of this study was to develop and characterize edible toys ...

Parental iron supplementation in neonatal piglets is a routine management to solve anemia but may cause welfare problems. The aim of this study was to assess behavior responses generated after oral or parenteral iron ...

The article describes the use of protection ceramic composed of SiO2 (62-68)-MgO+CaO (29-39) in the frontal region of machines that inject refractory mass to stop pig iron running and liquid slag in blast furnaces. The new ...

The objective of this study was to develop an encapsulated iron supplement for oral ingestion and to determine its effect on the iron nutrition status of suckling pigs. Encapsulated and non-encapsulated iron supplement was ...

Motivated by the low yield of pig iron in 2015 for this work was a mass balance that delivers the production of blast furnaces and refining stages of pig iron in Steelmaking in order to identify the main variables that ...

The aim of this study was to characterize nonheme iron (NHI) and heme iron (HI) microparticles to elaborate a novel oral iron supplement, determining its effect on the iron nutritional status of neonatal piglets. Nonheme ...

Epidemiological studies have reported an association between high iron (Fe) levels and elevated risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). It is believed that the formation of Fe-catalyzed hydroxyl radicals may ...
