“…However, the lambs in our study significantly decreased their feed intake without affecting their performance, which could represent an advantage in meat production development because feeding is an element that elevates production costs. In contrast with our results, other studies with lambs found no effect of FA or feruloyl oligosaccharides on feed intake [ 8 - 10 , 32 ]. Additionally, published reports have studied the effect of supplementing lambs with different phytochemicals or plant extracts; their results have shown that feeding these compounds either increased or did not affect the feed intake of fattening lambs [ 39 ].…”

“…In our current study, we have no clear information to explain why FA supplementation did not improve feedlot performance traits, carcass characteristics, or wholesale cuts of the finished lambs. In agreement with our results, other studies reported that dietary FA administration did not affect the growth performance of hair lambs [ 8 - 10 , 32 ]. Contrary to our results, Peña-Torres et al [ 30 ] observed that feeding FA (300 ppm and 600 ppm) enhanced the ADG of lambs; however, in that study, the lambs had a lower body weight and age than the animals in our study.…”

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ferulic acid (FA) and clinoptilolite (CTL) supplementation on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality of hair-breed lambs. Twenty-eight Kathadin male lambs (33.72 ± 3.4 kg) were randomly allocated to one of the four diets (n=7) under a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement to evaluate the effect of FA (0 or 300 ppm) and CTL (0% or 1%) during the last 40 days of the finishing phase. No interaction between additives was shown for growth performance, carcass characteristics and meat quality, with exception of the fatty acid profile ( p < 0.05). FA reduced feed intake and carcass conformation ( p < 0.05). Wholesale cuts were not affected by FA or CTL ( p > 0.05). The L*, a*, and C* color parameters and some intramuscular fatty acids of the longissimus thoracis muscle were positively modified by CTL supplementation ( p < 0.05). While there was no FA × CTL interaction, each additive could be used individually in animal nutrition to improve the feedlot performance and meat quality of the lambs.

“…Similar to plant polysaccharides, fermented wheat bran polysaccharides (FWBPs) were formed mainly by arabinoxylan, which is manufactured from wheat bran by fungal and bacterial strains ( 8 ). Previous research has shown that FWBPs supplementation can modify the rumen fermentation profile, increase feed intake and nutrient digestibility, and thereby enhance the growth performance of lambs ( 9 , 10 ). Furthermore, the prebiotic effects of FWBPs have been demonstrated in monogastric animals which promoted the proliferation of Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens, Roseburia, Ruminococcus productus, Ruminococcus obeum, Prevotella , and Bifidobacteria ( 11 ).…”

There is growing interest in the utilization of plant polysaccharides for the modulation of the rumen bacterial community and enhancement of growth performance in ruminants. Fermented wheat bran polysaccharides (FWBPs), plant polysaccharides, have been shown to improve the growth performance of lambs, but little is known about their effect on rumen bacteria. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of FWBPs supplementation to milk replacer (MR) on the growth performance, blood metabolites, weight and morphology of rumen, rumen fermentation, and rumen bacterial community which were investigated in lambs. Twelve 1.5-month-old crossbred lambs (Dorper × Small-tailed Han Sheep) with an initial body weight (BW) of 11.38 ± 0.19 kg were randomly divided into two groups, namely, the control group and FWBPs group. Compared with the control group, the FWBPs group had a higher average daily weight gain and serum total protein concentrations, and a lower feed: gain ratio. A tendency of increase in final BW and carcass BW was also observed. Administration of FWBPs increased the ruminal papillae width and ruminal butyrate proportion and decreased the concentration of ammonia nitrogen and the proportion of isobutyrate and isovalerate. In addition, the epithelial cell thickness had an increased trend in the FWBPs group. High-throughput sequencing data showed that the relative abundance of Lachnospiraceae_NK3A20_group and Solobacterium was enhanced by FWBP treatment; meanwhile, the relative abundance of NK4A214_group, Megasphaera, and Treponema showed a tendency to be higher than that of the control group. Furthermore, Spearman's correlation analysis revealed that the relative abundances of NK4A214_group, Treponema, and Lachnospiraceae_NK3A20_group were positively correlated with butyrate proportion. Collectively, FWBPs supplementation to MR on lambs altered the rumen bacterial community, promoted rumen development, and improved growth performance.

“…Structural characterization demonstrated that the four fractions ofFEOS contsined esterified [104] oxalic acid solution were mixed and boiled for ferulic acid, arabinose and xylose linked by beta (1-4) glycosyl glycosidic bonds. The 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity (DPPH scavenging activity) is the most commonly used method for the study of oligosaccharides, probably because of its simplicity, speed and low cost compared to other methods [80]. Other recently used methods for evaluating the antioxidant capacity of oligosaccharides include the 2,2 • -azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline sulfonic acid) radicals scavenging activity (ABTS scavenging activity), hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) superoxide anion radical scavenging, reducing power, and ferrous ion chelating activity.…”

Background: Non-digestible oligosaccharides are versatile sources of chemical diversity, well known for their prebiotic actions, found naturally in plants or produced by chemical or enzymatic synthesis or by hydrolysis of polysaccharides. Compared to polyphenols or even polysaccharides, the antioxidant potential of oligosaccharides is still unexplored. The aim of the present work was to provide an up-to-date, broad and critical contribution on the topic of antioxidant oligosaccharides. Methods: The search was performed by crossing the words oligosaccharides and antioxidant. Whenever possible, attempts at establishing correlations between chemical structure and antioxidant activity were undertaken. Results: The most representative in vitro and in vivo studies were compiled in two tables. Chitooligosaccharides and xylooligosaccharides and their derivatives were the most studied up to now. The antioxidant activities of oligosaccharides depend on the degree of polymerization and the method used for depolymerization. Other factors influencing the antioxidant strength are solubility, monosaccharide composition, the type of glycosidic linkages of the side chains, molecular weight, reducing sugar content, the presence of phenolic groups such as ferulic acid, and the presence of uronic acid, among others. Modification of the antioxidant capacity of oligosaccharides has been achieved by adding diverse organic groups to their structures, thus increasing also the spectrum of potentially useful molecules. Conclusion: A great amount of high-quality evidence has been accumulating during the last decade in support of a meaningful antioxidant activity of oligosaccharides and derivatives. Ingestion of antioxidant oligosaccharides can be visualized as beneficial to human and animal health.
