Item Adult Ossabaw Pigs Prefer Fermented Sorghum Tea over Isocaloric Sweetened Water(MDPI, 2023-10-18) Nelson, Catherine E.; Aramouni, Fadi M.; Goering, Mikayla J.; Bortoluzzi, Eduarda M.; Knapp, Laura A.; Herrera-Ibata, Diana M.; Li, Ka Wang; Jermoumi, Rabia; Hooker, Jane A.; Sturek, Joshua; Byrd, James P; Wu, Hui; Trinetta, Valentina; Alloosh, Mouhamad; Sturek, Michael; Jaberi-Douraki, Majid; Hulbert, Lindsey E.; Cellular and Integrative Physiology, School of MedicineOssabaw pigs (n = 11; 5-gilts, 6-barrows; age 15.6 ± 0.62 SD months) were exposed to a three-choice preference maze to evaluate preference for fermented sorghum teas (FSTs). After conditioning, pigs were exposed, in four sessions, to choices of white FST, sumac FST, and roasted sumac-FST. Then, pigs were exposed, in three sessions, to choices of deionized H2O (-control; avoidance), isocaloric control (+control; deionized H2O and sucrose), and blended FST (3Tea) (equal portions: white, sumac, and roasted sumac). When tea type was evaluated, no clear preference behaviors for tea type were observed (p > 0.10). When the 3Tea and controls were evaluated, pigs consumed minimal control (p < 0.01;18.0 ± 2.21% SEM), and they consumed great but similar volumes of +control and 3Tea (96.6 and 99.0 ± 2.21% SEM, respectively). Likewise, head-in-bowl duration was the least for -control, but 3Tea was the greatest (p < 0.01; 5.6 and 31.9 ± 1.87% SEM, respectively). Head-in-bowl duration for +control was less than 3Tea (p < 0.01; 27.6 vs. 31.9 ± 1.87% SEM). Exploration duration was the greatest in the area with the -control (p < 0.01; 7.1 ± 1.45% SEM), but 3Tea and +control exploration were not different from each other (1.4 and 3.0 ± 1.45% SEM, respectively). Regardless of tea type, adult pigs show preference for FST, even over +control. Adult pigs likely prefer the complexity of flavors, rather than the sweetness alone.Item Indiana State Board of Health Monthly Bulletin, 1906 Vol. 8 No. 11(1906) Barnard, H.
