[00:00:00]So, there's been a lot of literature that has looked at supplementing specifically arginine in sows during gestation. And arginine plays a lot of important roles with nitric oxide, polyamines, and these can help with angiogenesis and placental development during gestation. And this previous work has seen improvements in litter weights at birth and total born. So, the idea was to take that and apply it to lactation and see if supplementing arginine in lactation would have similar benefits to pig livability during farrowing. As we all know, that's a big point of mortality is in the farrowing rooms and piglets. It's around 30% I believe.
