Lactation was induced in non-pregnant gilts using a specific protocol. The milk produced had lower fat content and higher protein content.
A protocol to induce lactation was applied to non-pregnant gilts. In Experiment I, five gilts with oestrus synchronized through oral supplementation of 20 mg altrenogest for 18 days received: 10 mg oestradiol cypionate (EC) on the last day of oestrous expression (D0); 10 mg EC and 300 mg long-acting progesterone (P4) on D26; and two 0.53 mg doses of a prostaglandin F2 alpha analogue (PGF) 12 h apart on D36. Blood was collected on D12, D19, D26 and D33. Milk secretion started in all gilts 24 h after PGF administration and lasted at least 8 days. Milk samples were collected from D37 to D45. The serum P4 concentration was lower on D12 than subsequently (p < .05), but the oestradiol concentration was unaltered (p > .05). The milk produced during the induced lactation was generally richer in protein and poorer in fat compared to the milk from the lactation of a reference sow. In Experiment II, the same protocol induced lactation in two gilts, which nursed fostered piglets for 22 days. Thus, lactation was induced in all treated gilts and the milk produced was capable to nurture fostered piglets.
