“…In the current study, the supplementation of tartary buckwheat flavonoids significantly increased the ADG, which is in accordance with the reports of Zhao et al [24] that dietary tartary buckwheat flavonoids increased the bodyweight and ADG of lamb. Similarly, flavonoids from alfalfa and Allium mongolicum Regel increased the growth performance of growing rabbits, geese, and sheep, respectively [25,26].…”

Simple SummaryThere has been a growing interest in the use of flavonoids and probiotics as alternatives of antibiotics in livestock production and as natural products for human health benefit. The effect of tartary buckwheat flavonoid supplementation in the diet has not been clearly investigated. The supplementation of tartary buckwheat flavonoids or Lactobacillus plantarum improved the growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and antioxidant capacity of weaned piglets. In combination, they exhibited a synergistic effect on nutrient digestibility.AbstractNatural plant extracts and probiotics has been proved as the most preferred and effective alternatives for antibiotics in animal feeding. The current study aimed to investigate the facilitating effect of tartary buckwheat flavonoids and Lactobacillus plantarum on the growth performance, nutrient digestibility, antioxidant capacity, and microbiota of weaned piglets. Fifty 35-day-old weaned piglets (7.85 ± 0.67 kg) were randomly divided into five treatments with 10 piglets per treatment. Piglets in the negative control (NC) group were fed a basal diet, and others were fed basal diets supplemented with 40 mg/kg of colistin sulfate (positive control, PC), 109 CFU/kg Lactobacillus plantarum (LP), 40 mg/kg of tartary buckwheat flavonoids (BF), and a combination of 109 CFU/kg Lactobacillus plantarum and 40 mg/kg of tartary buckwheat flavonoids (LB). Supplementation of BF increased the average daily gain of piglets in the BF group (p < 0.05). The nutrient digestibility of piglets in the NC group was lower than that in other groups, while the digestibility of gross energy, dry matter, organic matter, and phosphorus of piglets in the LB group was higher than the other four groups (p < 0.05). Compared with the NC and pC group, supplementation of Lp increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px), and catalase (CAT), while the BF increased the content of IgA and IgM (p < 0.05). Supplementation of colistin sulfate decreased the alpha diversity index, including chao and observed species, while the addition of Lp or combination of Lp and BF increased the abundance of Selenomonas or Mitsuokella in fecal samples, respectively. The results indicated that supplementation of Lactobacillus plantarum can improve the antioxidant capacity, while tartary buckwheat flavones can increase the growth performance and immune ability of weaned piglets. Moreover, in combination, they promote nutrient digestibility.

“…Zhao et al. () reported that dietary polyphenolic compounds extracted from Tartary buckwheat supplementation increased ADG, DMI and carcass weight and improved the water‐holding capacity and total antioxidant capacity of Longissimus thoracis et lumborum muscle of lambs. Liu, Li, Lv, Zhao, and Xiong () also found that dietary polyphenolic compounds extracted from chestnut woods supplementation improved growth performance and meat quality of heat‐stressed lambs.…”

To investigate the effects of polyphenolic extract from Eucommia ulmoides Oliver leaf (PEEU) on growth performance, digestibility, rumen fermentation and antioxidant status of fattening lambs, 30 weaned male Huzhou lambs were equally divided into three treatments and fed the basal diet supplemented with 0 (CON), 5 (PEEU5) or 10 (PEEU10) g/kg PEEU. Dietary PEEU supplementation did not affect growth performance and apparent digestibility of nutrients. Compared with the CON group, lambs in the PEEU10 group had lower ammonia nitrogen concentration (p < .01) and acetic acid to propionic acid ratio (p < .05) and higher the molar proportion of propionate (p < .05) in rumen fluid. Ammonia nitrogen concentration (p < .01) and the molar proportion of propionate (p < .05) were affected by an interaction between PEEU and sampling day. Dietary PEEU supplementation at 10 g/kg increased total antioxidant capacity (p < .05), superoxide dismutase (p < .05) and glutathione peroxidase (p < .01) activities in serum and glutathione peroxidase activity (p < .05) in liver and decreased (p < .05) malondialdehyde content in serum and liver compared with the CON group. In conclusion, dietary PEEU supplementation affected rumen fermentation patterns and improved antioxidant status of fattening lambs.

“…In contrast to the results obtained, it was reported in a different study that the use of oregano oil in lamb feeding did not affect the feed conversion rate, and that the daily feed consumption and daily live weight gain were higher [28] . There are also studies reporting that the use of plant extracts in lambs has positive effects on dry matter consumption, live weight gain and feed conversion parameters [29][30][31] .…”

“…Gumus et al [24] reported in their study that the use of oregano oil in the lambs not effected liver SOD values but GSH and CAT values, and also affected GSH, SOD, and CAT enzyme activities in M. longissimus dorsi tissue muscle significantly. Furthermore, in some studies using lamb extract from lambs, glutathione peroxidase activity (P<.05) has been positively affected and antioxidant parameters have been improved [26,31,38] .…”

Kafkas Univ Vet Fak Derg, 26 (1): 59-64, 2020. AbstractThe purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of oregano oil (Origanum vulgare) at on fattening performance and blood oxidantantioxidant balance such as glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) catalase (CAT) enzyme activities, malondialdehyde, ceruloplasmin, nitric oxide, albumin, total protein and globulin in post-weaned Tuj breed lambs. The lambs were average 155 days old, and were divided into 3 groups regardless of gender, and in total 18 lambs were used. In the study the control group (C) was fed with basal ration; while the experimental groups were orally fed with oregano oil supplementation as a commercial product in daily doses of 1 mL/lamb/day (T1) and 2 mL/lamb/day (T2), respectively, in addition to the basal ration, via sterile injections. The experiment was maintained for a total of 52 days of which 10 days were adaptation period. In the study, it has been seen in post-weaned Tuj breed lambs that using different doses of oregano oil had no effect on live weight gain, daily live weight gain, daily feed consumption, and feed conversion ratio (P>0.05). In the study, it was determined that the addition of oregano oil to the ration made no significant difference on fattening performance and MDA, GSH, CAT, ceruloplasmin, nitric oxide, albumin, total protein and globulin values of blood oxidant-antioxidant parameters. SOD and GPx values were significantly affected by the addition of oregano oil to the lamb rations at the point of examining the effect on blood oxidant-antioxidant balance (P<0.05). As a result, it has been determined that oregano oil did not affect the performance parameters, it significantly affected the oxidant-antioxidant balance in lambs.

Kuzular ortalama 155 günlük yaşta olup cinsiyet gözetilmeksizin 3 gruba ayrılmış ve toplamda 18 kuzu kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada kontrol grubu (K) bazal rasyonla beslenirken deneme gruplarına bazal rasyona ek olarak sırasıyla 1 mL/kuzu/gün (T1) ve 2 mL/kuzu/gün (T2) dozlarında ticari ürün olan kekik yağı ilavesi steril şırıngalar ile hayvanlara günlük olarak oral şekilde verilmiştir. Deneme, 10 gün adaptasyon dönemi olmak üzere toplam 52 gün sürdürülmüştür. Çalışmada kesilmiş Tuj ırkı kuzularda kekik yağının farklı dozlarda kullanımının canlı ağırlık artışı, günlük canlı ağırlık artışı, günlük yem tüketimi ve yemden yararlanma oranını etkilemediği görülmüştür (P>0.05).
