Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

John R. Pluske focuses on Weaning, Animal science, Food science, Microbiology and Digestion. His Weaning research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Gastrointestinal tract, Low protein and Small intestine. The various areas that John R. Pluske examines in his Animal science study include Feces, Starch, Growing region, Weight gain and Diarrhea.

Many of his research projects under Food science are closely connected to Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli with Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His studies deal with areas such as Porcine intestinal spirochaetosis, Intestinal mucosa, Immune system, Pathogenic bacteria and Resistant starch as well as Microbiology. John R. Pluske has included themes like Lactation and Lactase in his Internal medicine study.

His most cited work include:

  • Factors influencing the structure and function of the small intestine in the weaned pig: a review (765 citations)
  • A review of interactions between dietary fibre and the intestinal mucosa, and their consequences on digestive health in young non-ruminant animals (635 citations)
  • Gastrointestinal health and function in weaned pigs: a review of feeding strategies to control post‐weaning diarrhoea without using in‐feed antimicrobial compounds (328 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Animal science, Weaning, Food science, Internal medicine and Microbiology. His work focuses on many connections between Animal science and other disciplines, such as Feed conversion ratio, that overlap with his field of interest in Lysine. His work is dedicated to discovering how Weaning, Gastrointestinal tract are connected with Physiology and other disciplines.

His Food science research incorporates elements of Nutrient and Agronomy. His Internal medicine study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Endocrinology. He works mostly in the field of Microbiology, limiting it down to topics relating to Large intestine and, in certain cases, Small intestine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (45.68%)
  • Weaning (36.22%)
  • Food science (27.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Weaning (36.22%)
  • Animal science (45.68%)
  • Food science (27.30%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

John R. Pluske mostly deals with Weaning, Animal science, Food science, Soil indicators and Gastrointestinal tract. His study of Creep feeding is a part of Weaning. John R. Pluske studies Animal science, namely Post weaning.

His work deals with themes such as Minimum inhibitory concentration, Effluent and Medium chain fatty acid, which intersect with Food science. His Soil indicators study combines topics in areas such as Aggression and Animal welfare. His Gastrointestinal tract research includes elements of Disease status, Mannitol, Physiology and Enteric disease.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Gastrointestinal tract (gut) health in the young pig. (94 citations)
  • Post-weaning and whole-of-life performance of pigs is determined by live weight at weaning and the complexity of the diet fed after weaning (30 citations)
  • Invited review: Aspects of gastrointestinal tract growth and maturation in the pre- and postweaning period of pigs (28 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

John R. Pluske mainly investigates Animal science, Weaning, Immunology, Lactation and Colostrum. His Animal science research integrates issues from Veterinary medicine and Inflammatory response. His Weaning study combines Internal medicine and Endocrinology studies.

His Endocrinology research includes themes of Carbohydrate and Sugar absorption. His research on Immunology also deals with topics like

  • Feed conversion ratio that connect with fields like Apolipoprotein A1, Tryptophan, Urea and Methionine,
  • Amino acid which is related to area like Arachidonic acid, Proteolysis, Microbiology, Immune system and Antibody. His Lactation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Herd, Immunoglobulin G, Net energy and Lactose.
