Effects of feeding guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) at different time periods before slaughter on back-fat thickness* on carcasses of finishing pigs. *Back-fat thickness was measured on carcass of pigs using ultrasound instrument (Aloka SSD-500, ALOKA Co., Ltd. Germany). Control = basal diet. 60 d before = basal diet + 1.2 kg GAA/MT fed 60 d before slaughter. 40 d before = basal diet + 1.2 kg GAA/MT fed 40 d before slaughter. 25 d before = basal diet + 1.2 kg GAA/MT fed 25 d before slaughter.
