Amines and lipids metabolites in blood plasma and saliva samples in pigs.

The dataset presented in here is generated in a project named "Effects of sanitary and health status on amino acid and energy metabolism of growing-finishing pigs." The metabolomics data from two samples types in pigs were generated in collaboration with Metabolomics Facility Leiden, The Netherlands and Wageningen Livestock Research, The Netherlands. This collaboration was realized and funded by Enabling Technology Hotels programme, ZonMW, NWO, The Netherlands (project number: 435005015).

Targeted quantification of metabolites in two metabolomic platforms covering amines and oxidative stress metabolites in the blood and saliva samples in pigs. The samples were collected from a feeding trial. Briefly, After weaning, i.e., at week 4, pigs were fed a starter (4-9 weeks), grower (9-14 weeks), and finisher (14-22 weeks) diet containing either starch or fat as an energy source. At week 9, before the pigs were fed the grower diet, blood plasma and saliva samples were collected from the pigs (n=6) and the animals were stratified according to different hygiene conditions. At week 14, i.e., before the pigs received the finisher diet, and at week 22, i.e., at the end of this experiment, blood plasma and saliva samples were collected from the pigs (n=6) in the cohort receiving a diet with a different energy source under contrasting sanitary status.
