Summary:

In this experiment the effects of CLA on growth and pork quality were evaluated in pigs fed DDGS. The data concludes that decreased carcass firmness with DDGS feeding is not reflected by changes in lipogenic gene expression. Feeding 20% or more DDGS to finishing swine decreases bacon leanness, but inclusion of 0.6% CLA in the finishing diet can partially reverse these effects.
