ABSTRACT
Growing pigs (n = 21) at an initial liveweight of 30 kg were divided into three groups of 7 animals
each and housed in individual cages for 100 days. The pigs were fed with similar diets (13.5 MJ ME
and 178 g crude protein/kg) but with different additions of vitamins C+E and taurine.
The antioxidative vitamins E and C supplied to diets with high energy concentrations (containing lard)
can act as pro-oxidants on liver DNA in growing pigs. Taurine decreased the concentration of products
from nucleotide oxidation, but in the presence of vitamin E and C, promoted hepatocyte lesions.
