“…The occurrence of anaemic piglets in iron dextran injected group on day 7 is in agreement with findings of Iben (1998), Egeli and Framstad (1999), Lemacher and Bostedt (1995) and can be explained by delayed availability of iron for haemoglobin syntesis. This delay is caused by an uptake of iron dextran by reticulohistiocytic system.…”

The aim of the study was to evaluate efficiency of voluntary access to amino acid-chelated iron in the form of mineral supplement in preventing anaemia of piglets. Piglets in group 1 (n = 60) were offered ad libitum the iron mineral supplement (Fe 110 g·kg -1 ) from the 2 nd to the 14 th day of life. Piglets in group 2 (n = 30) were given 200 mg Fe 3+ as iron dextran i.m. on day 3. On day 7, haemoglobin concentration (Hb) (P < 0.05), packed cell volume (P < 0.05), red blood cell count (P < 0.01) and plasma iron concentration (P < 0.01) in group 1 were lower compared to group 2. On day 14 and 21 no significant differences were found between the two groups. At the time of weaning (day 28), the voluntary access to iron did not prevent 8% of piglets from becoming anaemic (Hb < 80 g·l -1 ). Body weights were comparable in the 2 groups. Haemoglobin, packed cell volume, erytrocyte

“…Aproximadamente 40mg de ferro precisam ser absorvidos para cada 1kg de peso ganho para manter a concentração de hemoglobina em 10g dL -1 (EGELI & FRAMSTAD, 1999). A necessidade diária de ferro para leitões situa-se entre 5 e 10mg dia -1 , principalmente nas primeiras semanas.…”

“…Iron is absorbed in the cranial part of the small intestine (the duodenum and the upper part of the jejunum). According to Egeli and Framstad (1999) iron given orally is available for haemoglobin synthesis sooner than parenteral iron dextran.…”

Iron deficiency is presently a serious problem in suckling piglets on pig farms. The most often used method of anaemia prevention in piglets is parenteral administration of iron dextran. Oral iron represents an alternative to this method. The goal of this article is to review current knowledge on oral iron administration in suckling piglets. The substances that can be used for this purpose include iron dextran, iron salts, iron chelates, carbonyl iron, an iron polymaltose complex and iron microparticles. The different methods of oral iron administration in piglets are discussed. Anaemia, haemoglobin, iron dextran, pig
