Evaluating the effect of a mild cycling heating period on leukocyte coping capacity in growing pigs
This study evaluated whether leukocyte coping capacity (LCC) could be an effective method for detecting physiological stress in growing pigs who are exposed to a mild cycling heating period. We hypothesized that whole blood samples collected from pigs exposed to high environmental temperatures would...
