Porcine digestible peptides as alternative protein source in weaner diets: effects on performance and systemic cytokine profile in pigs followed from weaning to slaughter

Porcine digestible peptides (PDP) are high-quality hydrolysed proteins obtained from porcine intestinal mucosa as a by-product of the heparin manufacturing process. PDP contain bioactive peptides and are used as alternative protein sources in several animal species, including pigs. We aimed to explo...
