Aerobic and Anaerobic Transformations in Estrogens and Nutrients in Swine Manure: Environmental Consequences

Abstract: Pig manure is an excellent fertilizer and rich source of organic carbon and nitrogen compounds such organic nitrogen (O-N) (95% of total nitrogen) that is plant-unavailable-nitrogen (PUN) and mineralized nitrogen (about 1% of total nitrogen) such as ammonium (NH4 + ) and nitrate (NO3) that are plant-available-nitrogen (PAN). In addition, manure also contains two forms of estrogens: (i) poorly estrogenic thus essentially nontoxic conjugated estrogens (cEs) such as estrone (cE1), estradiol (cE2) and estriol (cE3… Show more

“…Whole manure samples were collected from pig farms and handled as described previously (Singh et al 2013, Singh 2015, 2016. Immediately after collection, each sample was mixed with internal standards to track possible degradation and then split in two parts.…”

“…Full cleanout refers to total removal of litter from a broiler house, whereas cake cleanout refers to removal of caked litter only. Cake cleanout accounts for 30 to 46% of total litter production (cake+full cleanouts; Malone, 1992; NRAES, 1999; Sistani et al, 2003). Each broiler house typically raises ∼20,000 to 28,000 birds for 42 to 63 d, depending on the bird target market weight.…”
