黄芪·蒲公英等中草药配伍对肉仔鸡生长保健性能的影响(英文)

Objective] The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Chinese medical herbs including astragali and taraxacum on health and growth performance of broilers.Method] The tested Chinese medical herbs were added into the basal diet of avian broilers for measuring the variation of their health and growth performance.Result]Compared to the control group(fed by basal diet and with antibiotics as additive),the body weight of broilers fed by compatibility A(0.8% astragali;0.4% haw;0.4% dried citrus peel;0.4% rhizoma atractylodis)and by compatibility B(1.2% taraxacum;0.8% smoked plums;0.8% amur cork-tree bark;0.4% astragali)increased by 6.12%(P<0.01)and 0.64%(P>0.05),respectively;feed intakes changed by-7.95% and 9.99%,respectively;feed conversion rates changed by-14.04% and 9.35%,respectively.The survival rate of compatibility B was similar to that of control group.Conclusion]Compatibility of Chinese medical herbs containing astragali can improve the growth performance of avian broilers,and that containing taraxacum may to some extent result in the decrease of growth performance,but it can play the role instead of antibiotic additives.

Effects of the Compatibility of Chinese Medical Herbs on Health and Growth Performance of Broilers

Objective] The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Chinese medical herbs including astragali and taraxacum on health and growth performance of broilers. Method] The tested Chinese medical herbs were added into the basal diet of avian broilers for measuring the variation of their health and growth performance. Result] Compared to the control group(fed by basal diet and with antibiotics as additive), the body weight of broilers fed by compatibility A (0.8% astragali; 0.4% haw; 0.4% dried citrus peel; 0.4% rhizoma atractylodis) and by compatibility B (1.2% taraxacum; 0.8% smoked plums; 0.8% amur cork-tree bark; 0.4% astragali) increased by 6.12% (P<0.01) and 0.64% (P>0.05), respectively; feed intakes changed by - 7.95% and 9.99%, respectively ; feed conversion rates changed by - 14.04% and 9.35%, respectively. The survival rate of compatibility B was similar to that of control group. Conclusion] Compatibility of Chinese medical herbs containing astragali can improve the growth performance of a-vian broilers, and that containing taraxacum may to some extent result in the decrease of growth performance, but it can play the role instead of antibiotic additives.
