Pre-mating period is often associated with intense stress for sows in commercial production systems, due to the change of management, diet, facilities, among others. Sows are kept in crates during the pre-mating period, which challenge their welfare, occurring the release of cortisol, altering their physiology, modifying responses to pain, infection, injury and stress response. A prolonged exposure to stress can suppress the immune system and increase the susceptibility to infections, often caused by Gram-negative bacteria than contains lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in their cell wall. The role of microbiota in the gut-brain axis is recognized in processes related to stress, obesity, psychiatric disorders, among others, being influenced by envir...
