Evaluation of Clay-Based Binders and In-Feed Antimicrobials on Growth Performance and Biological Measurements in Nursery Pigs

MPO had lower concentrations of d 21 compared to d 9.There was a strong negative correlation between fecal DM and score (P < 0.001) on d 6, 9, and 21 indicating that as fecal DM increased, the score became closer to 0, representing a firmer fecal sample.Fecal DM on d 6 and fecal DM on d 9 were negatively correlated with ADG from d 0 to 9 meaning that as growth rate increased, fecal DM decreased.
