Changes in thiamin contents in porcine muscles and liver during growth.
Changes in the thiamin contents in three types of porcine muscle and porcine liver during growth were investigated. The muscular thiamin content was lower at the newborn stage than at fetal stage, and increased after the weaning period. The liver thiamin content, however, remained unchanged from the fetal stage to 5 months old. The changes in thiamin contents were different between Landrace and Meishan pigs.
