Swine Diets

Teklad swine diets are natural-ingredient diets specifically formulated to provide the proper balance of all known nutrients considered essential for the growth, maintenance, and reproduction of swine.

Teklad swine diets provide uniform nutrition through fixed-formula diets designed to minimize the nutrient variances that otherwise could occur if the ingredient composition of the diets were altered from one batch to the next.

Protein supplied by fish and plant sources combined with supplemental amino acids provides the proper amount and balance of essential amino acids required by research swine.

Teklad swine diets are fortified appropriately with vitamins and minerals to help support the regulation of body fluids and the proper functioning of the body system to ensure adequate growth, maintenance, and reproduction of research swine.

Teklad swine diets are formulated and manufactured without artificial preservatives, anti-caking agents, or other additives that otherwise may influence the results of certain types of research studies.
