Effects of Weaning Modes on the Intestinal pH, Activity of Digestive Enzymes, and Intestinal Morphology of Piglets.

Nevertheless, our results were inconsistent with Yang’s (2016) study, which revealed that feeding piglets with various fermented soybean meals significantly reduces the mucosal thicknesses of the jejunum and ileum; however, this came with extremely significant increases in the mucosal thickness of the duodenum [ 32 ].

The results of this study demonstrated that, compared with the conventional weaning group, the intestinal pH of the odorant spray group and the weaning-after-mixing group both showed a decreasing trend, and the pH of the ilea in the odorant spray group was significantly different than those of the conventional weaning group ( p < 0.05).
