probiotics and prebiotics to maternal diets is related to decreased incidence of diarrhea and greater weight gain during lactation. Our objective was to determine the impact of adding whole ground oat as a prebiotic alone or in combination with postbiotic yeast culture (YC) (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to sow gestation and lactation rations on milk composition, piglet growth, and incidence of post weaning diarrhea (PWD). Diets: control (CON), CON + yeast culture (YC) [5g/kg], CON + oat (15% inclusion rate) (Oat) or CON+ YC [5g/kg] + Oat (15%) were fed during the last 30 days of gestation and throughout lactation (18-21 days). Shotgun proteome analysis of day 4 and 7 postpartum milk samples found 36 differentially abundant proteins (P-adj <0.1) in both Oat and YC supplemented sows relative to CON. Notable was increased expression of antimicrobial proteins, lactoferrin and chitinase. IgG in milk of Oat supplemented sows was lower than YC supplemented sows (p<0.05) but had greater E. coli-antigen reactivity. Piglet weights at birth were similar. At weaning YC + Oat piglets weighed less and gained less weight (p<0.05) postweaning than CON. The incidence of PWD was lowest in the YC and Oat groups compared to CON and YC+ Oat groups. These data suggest that Oat or YC culture supplementation alters milk immune and antimicrobial associated proteins that can impact piglets but may have negative effects on piglet growth when given in combination.
