OverviewAI-generated summary

Mikayla S. Spinler's research focuses on animal nutrition, particularly the dietary requirements of lactating sows and growing-finishing pigs. Her work investigates the impact of specific nutrient levels, such as lysine and other amino acids, on animal performance, feed intake, and overall health. Spinler has evaluated precision feeding strategies to optimize nutrient delivery and reduce nitrogen excretion in swine diets.

Her publications also examine the effects of feed additives, like flavor enhancers, and varying nutrient ratios, such as tryptophan:lysine and arginine:lysine, on sow and litter performance. Additionally, her research explores the influence of different mineral sources and levels on growth and carcass characteristics in finishing pigs. Spinler collaborates with researchers at the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station, including Samantha A. Swanson and Maya Lashley.
