M132 Study on the effects of pectinase produced byPen<strong>ic</strong>illium oxal<strong>ic</strong>um Currie et Thom on the growth, development anddigestive physiology of broilers. X. X. Jiang, B. W. Wang*, P. Sun, and B. Yue,High Quality Waterfowl Research Institute, Qingdao Agr<strong>ic</strong>ultural University,Qingdao, Shandong Province, China.In order to explore the addition effect and the usage of Pen<strong>ic</strong>illium oxal<strong>ic</strong>umCurrie et Thom producing pectinase in broiler diet, 240 healthy 1-d-old broilerch<strong>ic</strong>kens under same condition were randomly divided into 4 groups with 4repl<strong>ic</strong>ates in each group and 15 ch<strong>ic</strong>kens in each repl<strong>ic</strong>ate. To the test groups’diets were added respectively pectinase with 0.249%, cellulose with 0.168%,compound enzyme with 0.15% prepared with pectinase, and cellulose by theproportion of 1:1. Broilers’ production performance, endogenous digestiveenzyme activity and appearance of intestinal tract were observed and measuredrespectively on the 28th and 49th day. The result showed that the growth ofbroilers in pectinase group was signif<strong>ic</strong>ant, the average daily gain and bodyweight were signif<strong>ic</strong>antly higher than that of control group (P < 0.05), andthe ratio of feed to gain was signif<strong>ic</strong>antly lower (P < 0.05). Compared withcontrol group, amylase, lipase, trypsin activities of pancreas, amylase, trypsinactivities of duodenum, lipase activities of jejunum during 0–28 d and 29–49d, lipase activities of duodenum during 0–28 d, pepsin activities during 29–49 d signif<strong>ic</strong>antly increased (P < 0.05), and pepsin activities during 0–28 dincreased remarkably (P < 0.01). Compared with control group, villus heightincreased signif<strong>ic</strong>antly (P < 0.05) and the th<strong>ic</strong>kness of intestinal wall decreasedsignif<strong>ic</strong>antly (P < 0.05). In addition, the broilers’ production performance,endogenous digestive enzyme activity and villus height in compound enzymegroup were signif<strong>ic</strong>antly better than that of pectinase group and cellulose group.Therefore, the effects of pectinase produced by Pen<strong>ic</strong>illium oxal<strong>ic</strong>um Currie etThom on production performances and digestive physiology in broilers weresignif<strong>ic</strong>ant and the appl<strong>ic</strong>ation effects were better combined with cellulose.Key Words: production performance, endogenous digestive enzyme activity,appearance of intestinal tractM133 Study on the growth performance and meat qualityof RRR-α-tocopherol succinate in broilers fed with oxidized oil. W. Gaiqin,Z. Xuhui, and W. Tian*, College of Animal Science and Technology, NanjingAgr<strong>ic</strong>ultural University, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China.To investigate the antioxidant capacity of RRR-α-tocopherol succinate (TOS)and its effects on the growth performance and meat quality of broilers fedwith oxidized oil, 480 broilers were randomly divided into 8 treatments with6 repl<strong>ic</strong>ates, 10 broilers in each repl<strong>ic</strong>ates. Using 2×4 factorial design: the oiltypes (fresh or oxidized oil), and different α-tocopherol treatments (30mg/kgRRR-α-tocopherol acetate (control), 15, 30, and 60 mg/kg RRR-α-tocopherolSuccinate (TOS1, TOS2, TOS3), respectively. The experiment lasted for 42d.The results showed that, (1) TOS and oxidized oil had no signif<strong>ic</strong>ant effect onthe average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI) or feed ratiogain (F/G) during 22-42d and the whole phage of 1-42. TOS supplementationaffected the F/G (P < 0.05), and oxidized oil feeding did have effect on ADGand F/G during 1-21d (P < 0.01). In all, there was an increasing trend of thegrowth performance with the increased α-TOS levels with both the oil diets.Compared with the fresh oil treatment groups, lipid peroxidation of broilers wasincreased in the oxidized oil treatments, with poorer muscle colors, increaseddrip loss and malondialdehyde (MDA) content, and decreased superoxidedismutase (SOD) activities; (2) In both the oxidized and fresh oil treatmentgroups, TOS3 group signif<strong>ic</strong>antly reduced 48h drip loss and cooking loss ofmuscle (P < 0.05), the brightness (L*), the red value (a*) and drip loss (24h,48h) of thigh in TOS2 or TOS3 group was improved signif<strong>ic</strong>antly (P < 0.05);MDA content of thigh muscle in TOS2 and TOS3 groups were signif<strong>ic</strong>antlylower. SOD activity in TOS3 group were signif<strong>ic</strong>antly increased (P < 0.05)by comparison with TOS1; (3) α-tocopherol content in serum and liver wasalso signif<strong>ic</strong>antly improved (P < 0.05) both in TOS2 and TOS3 groups. Inconclusion, dietary oxidized oil can lead to a lower meat quality, while 30 or60 mg/kg dietary TOS supplementation could improve the antioxidant capacityof broilers, and further the water holding capacity and color, by increasing theretention of serum and hepat<strong>ic</strong> α-tocopherol content, and reducing the MDAlevels.M134 Effects of iron glycine chelate on growth performanceand immunolog<strong>ic</strong>al characterist<strong>ic</strong>s in broiler ch<strong>ic</strong>kens. W. Ma, Y. Wang, H.Niu, and J. Feng*, College of Animal Science, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou,China.The study was conducted to determine the effects of iron glycine chelate ongrowth performance and immunolog<strong>ic</strong>al characterist<strong>ic</strong>s in broiler ch<strong>ic</strong>kens.A total of 360 one-day-old commercial broiler ch<strong>ic</strong>ks (Ross × Ross) wererandomly allotted to 6 dietary treatments with 6 repl<strong>ic</strong>ate pens of 10 ch<strong>ic</strong>ksfor 42 d. Treatments consisted of 0, 40, 80, 120, and 160 mg/kg iron glycinechelate and 160 mg/kg iron sulfate group. On d 21, 42 of the feeding trial,weight of ch<strong>ic</strong>ks and feed consumption were measured to calculate averagedaily gain, average daily feed intake, and feed/gain ratio. Seventy-two ch<strong>ic</strong>ks(two birds per pen) were killed by cerv<strong>ic</strong>al dislocation, and the spleen, bursaand thymus gland were separated and weighed for immune organ index. Bloodsamples were randomly collected for lymphocyte culture. Plasma samples wereisolated and analysed for immunolog<strong>ic</strong>al characterist<strong>ic</strong>s. Data were analyzedby ANOVA as a randomized complete block design using the GLM proceduresof SAS (version 6.02, SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). Compared with thecontrol, 120 and 160 mg/kg iron glycine chelate improved feed intake andaverage daily gain of broiler ch<strong>ic</strong>kens at d 42 (P < 0.05). Thymus gland indexincreased with the increasing dietary Fe-Gly levels (P = 0.063) at d 21. PlasmaFe concentrations increased with the increasing levels of Fe as iron glycinechelate at d 21 (P = 0.005) and d 42 (P = 0.001). Iron supplementation of ironglycine chelate had no influence on plasma immunoglobulin at d 21. However,160 mg/kg iron glycine chelate enhanced IgA (P < 0.05) and IgG (P < 0.05)contents at d 42. Lymphocytes from whole blood of experimental ch<strong>ic</strong>kenshad a higher proliferative response to lipopolysaccharide (P < 0.05) with dietsupplemental 120 and 160 mg/kg Fe as iron glycine chelate at d 21 and 160mg/kg Fe as iron glycine chelate d 42. No signif<strong>ic</strong>ant response to concanavalinA could be found in lymphocytes of whole blood although numer<strong>ic</strong>al changeswere observed. In conclusion, 160 mg/kg iron glycine chelate supplementationwould be benef<strong>ic</strong>ial to growth performance and immune functions of boilerch<strong>ic</strong>kens.Key Words: iron glycine chelate, growth performance, immunolog<strong>ic</strong>alcharacterist<strong>ic</strong>sM135 Effects of zinc glycine chelate on growth, mucosalimmunity and pancreas metallothionein in broilers. Y. Wang, W. Ma, H.Niu, J. Xiong, and J. Feng*, College of Animal Science, Zhejiang University,Hangzhou, China.The study was conducted to determine the effects of zinc glycine chelate ongrowth performance, mucosal immunity and pancreas metallothionein inbroiler ch<strong>ic</strong>kens. A total of 360 one-day-old commercial broiler ch<strong>ic</strong>ks (Ross× Ross) were randomly allotted to 6 dietary treatments with 6 repl<strong>ic</strong>ate penof 10 ch<strong>ic</strong>ks for 42 d. Treatments consisted of 0 (control), 30, 60, 90, and 120mg/kg zinc glycine chelate groups (calculated with Zn) and 120 mg/kg zincsulfate group (calculated with Zn). On d 21 and 42 of the feeding trial, weightof ch<strong>ic</strong>ks and feed consumption were measured to calculate average daily gain,average daily feed intake, and feed/gain ratio. Seventy-two ch<strong>ic</strong>ks (two birdsper pen) were killed by cerv<strong>ic</strong>al dislocation, small intestines were separatedfor mucosal immunity with ABC-ELISA, and pancreases were collected andimmediately stored at –70°C until analysis for the content of metallothionein(MT) and expression level of MT mRNA with fluorescence quantitative PCR.Data were analyzed by ANOVA as a randomized complete block design usingthe GLM procedures of SAS (version 6.02, SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA).After the feeding trials, the results showed that Zn-Gly and ZnSO 4groups couldimprove the growth performance of broilers, with the greatest average dailyfeed intake observed in the 90 mg/kg Zn-Gly group, but the greatest averagedaily gain observed with 120 mg/kg (at 21 d) and 90 mg/kg Zn-Gly group (at 42d). Compared to the control, adding 90 mg/kg Zn from Zn-Gly to the diet cansignif<strong>ic</strong>antly increase the content of IgA in intestinal mucosa up to 21 d of age inbroilers, and MT, and the expression of MT mRNA in the pancreas (P < 0.01).Based on the results of this study, 90 mg/kg Zn-Gly supplementation would bebenef<strong>ic</strong>ial to growth performance and immune functions of boiler ch<strong>ic</strong>kens.Key Words: zinc glycine chelate, growth, mucosal immunityKey Words: RRR-α-tocopherol succinate, growth performance, meat quality33
