  1. 11. Causes of variation in litter size in Swedish piglet production

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Isabelle Westergren; [2017]
    Nyckelord :litter size; age at first mating; lactation period; weaning to service interval;

    Sammanfattning : Litter size is influenced by a number of different factors including parity number and age at first mating as well as genetic potential and environmental factors such as management and feeding. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of age at first farrowing, lactation period and weaning to service interval on subsequent litter size, as well as to obtain descriptive statistics on the variation in litter size over the last few years.

  3. 12. Etiology of patellar luxation in small breed dogs

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Författare :Ana-Marija Camber; [2017]
    Nyckelord :patellar luxation; canine; dog; loose patella;

    Sammanfattning : Patellaluxation (PL) är en vanlig ortopedisk sjukdom som karakteriseras av att patellan kan luxera från trochlea ossis femoris. Detta sker antingen manuellt, spontant när hunden är i rörelse eller så är patellan permanent fixerad utanför fåran. LÄS MER

  4. 13. A porcine type 1 Diabetes Mellitus model, for non-invasive in vivo imaging of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor in the pancreas, using [68Ga]Ga-DO3A-VS-Cys40-conjugated synthetic exendin-4 in PET-CT

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Författare :Susanne Andréasson; [2014]
    Nyckelord :Exendin-4; GLP-1R; pig; beta cell imaging; beta cell mass; Exendin-4; gris; betacellsmassan; PET-CT;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus is a rising epidemic throughout the world and there is currently great interest in quantifying the beta-cell mass (BCM) in vivo non-invasively. In the present experiment, the feasibility of in vivo imaging of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) in beta-cells was examined, using the positron emission tomography (PET) tracer [68Ga]Ga-DO3A-VS-Cys40-exendin-4 as a marker, in native pancreatic beta-cells of a porcine diabetic animal model and healthy controls.

  5. 14. Variation in fattening pig exterior, gait and weight gain in commercial organic herds

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Christina Eliasson; [2013]
    Nyckelord :organic; pig; exterior; gait; weigh gain; sire; breed;

    Sammanfattning : Pigs in Swedish organic production systems have been shown to have more findings of arthritis at slaughter, compared to pigs in conventional pig production. With this in mind a study was performed, to primary, investigate variation in exterior, gait and weight gain between sire breeds and, secondly, to investigate variation between herds, season, gender, age and assessment occasion on these recordings.

  7. 15. Influence of providing objects to piglets before and after weaning on behaviour and weight gain

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Författare :Pernilla Hultman; [2013]
    Nyckelord :enrichment objects; piglets; play; weaning; manipulation; piglet;

    Sammanfattning : Barren rearing environment and early weaning of piglets can lead to a high level of distress, behavioural disturbances and reduction in weight gain. The main aim of this thesis was to study the effects of potential enrichment objects on piglet’s behaviour and weight gain during the pre- and post-weaning period. LÄS MER
