Nutritional control of amino acid supply to the mammary gland during lactation in the pig
1997
Trottier, N.L.
This paper discusses factors involved in protein metabolism as they pertain to amino acid nutrition, and a new approach to dietary control of amino acid supply for milk synthesis. It suggests that a better understanding of whole-body protein metabolism and the control of amino acid availability to, and utilization by, the mammary gland would provide an improved basis for estimation of amino acid requirements of the lactating sow. It covers plasma amino acid dynamics, the role of insulin and glucagon, blood flow and milk production, blood flow and methodological difficulties in the lactating sow, and mammary amino acid retention.
