Influence of folic acid supplements on the carry-over of folates from the sow to the piglet
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This experiment aimed to investigate the influence of folic acid supplements on the carry-over of folates from the sow to the fetus during late gestation and to the suckling piglet. Two groups of sixteen German Landrace sows received, during gestation and lactation, a diet supplemented with either 0 or 10 mg folic acid/kg. Increased folic acid concentrations in the serum of sows were detected only at the end of gestation (day 100) and at the end of lactation (day 28). The supplementation with folic acid to the sows' diet improved the folic acid supply of the fetus compared with unsupplemented controls; values were respectively 92.6 v. 56.2 nmol folates/l serum in newborn piglets and 171.9 v. 76.3 micromol folates/g fresh liver in stillborn piglets (P < 0.05). Folate concentrations in colostrum and milk (day 28) were 3.6- and 5.0-times higher in supplemented than unsupplemented sows. This treatment effect was also reflected in the serum of piglets until weaning. Therefore, the folic acid supply for the suckling piglet is dependent mainly upon the carry-over of maternal folates via colostrum and milk.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
