Soy Processing Must Be Treated as a Piglet-Health Control Point

A study published on 8 September in the *Journal of Animal Science* puts trypsin inhibitors firmly in the spotlight of nursery-pig nutrition. It examines how different levels of these antinutritional compounds in diets affect performance, diarrhoea, intestinal inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, mucosal morphology, barrier integrity and hindgut fermentation. Its practical relevance goes beyond a single formulation: inhibitor activity is a raw-material quality variable that can differ among soybean batches and processing conditions.
