Study objectiveThe objective of this study was
to evaluate the effect of Sangrovit in diets
containing either ideal or suboptimal (-15 less
than the requirement) tryptophan content on the
growth performance after weaning. Study
locationThe study was conducted at the Pig Unit
of the Animal Science Group in Lelystad,
Netherlands. Study durationday 28 to 63 after
weaning (five weeks after weaning)
Animalsweaned piglets with an age of 28 days

female

Conclusion Optimal level of Tryptophan
Supplementing the control diet with 50 ppm of
Sangrovit at optimal levels of Trp resulted in
clear improvements in average daily weight gain
and feed conversion during the starter and grower
phase compared to animals receiving the control
diet.
This was particularly pronounced in the starter
phase.

Netherlands
The reduction of Trp in the diet was with about
15 quite high. Due to this an impaired growth
performance was to be expected. However, using
Sangrovit in the Trp suboptimal diet (SS?Trp)
leads to a better FCR as compared to the control
group during the starter phase.
Conclusion Suboptimal level of Tryptophan
Looking at the grower phase its apparent that
animals on the Trp suboptimal diet with Sangrovit
(SG?Trp) had almost same performance as control
animals. In accordance to recent research these
data confirm the positive influence of Sangrovit
on the availability of amino acids.

Sangrovit for pigltes
Summary

• Higher feed intake
• Better feed conversion
• Higher daily weight gain ( basis for a
  successful growing and fattening period)
• Healthier piglets
• Sangrovit increases feed intake of starter pigs.
  Continuous feed intake is essential for a
  consistent and healthy development of the
  piglets, particularly after they have been
  weaned. Furthermore, high daily growth rates of
  starter pigs guarantee successful and profitable
  growing and fattening period.
