Reference


Nine piglets, each weighing approximately 15 kg, were purchased and introduced into the pens. The piglets had been fed only locally produced feed, mainly rice bran and vegetables, and did not receive any antimicrobials before being introduced into the pens.During the first and third months of the experiment, the pigs were fed pelleted commercial feed without any antimicrobials. During the second and fourth months of the experiment, pigs were fed the same type of commercial pig feed but now containing tetracycline (TET; 5 g/kg pig weight/day) and enrofloxacin (ENR; 0.45 g/kg pig weight/day) every day.

Water-sediment and fecal samples were collected at 13 sampling times during the experiment
