Abstract

This study was to investigate the effects of complex polypeptide on growth performance, physiological and chemical parameters in blood and intestinal main microbial flora unmber in early-weaner piglets. Ninety 21-day-old weaner piglets with similar average body weight were randomly allocated to 3 groups with 3 replicates per group and 10 piglets per replicate. The control group was fed a basal diet and the experimental groups were fed the basal diets supplemented with 0.5% and 1.0% complex polypeptide, respectively. The experiment period was 30 days. The results showed as follows: compared with the control group, the supplementation of 0.5% and 1.0% complex polypeptide could improve average daily gain and average daily feed intake, and decrease feed/gain in the experiment period (P>0.05). The supplementation of 0.5% complex polypeptide significantly increased the total antioxidant capacity (P<0.05), and the supplementation of 1.0% complex polypeptide significantly decreased the content of nitric oxide in serum (P<0.05). Addition of 0.5% and 1.0% complex polypeptide could increase serum immune indices to different extents, and the supplementation of 1.0% complex polypeptide significantly increased the contents of interleukin-2, thyroxine, insulin and gastrin in serum (P<0.05). The supplementation of 0.5% complex polypeptide significantly increased the number of Lactobacillus and significantly decreased the number of Escherichia coli in intestinal tract (P<0.05). In conclusion, supplementation of 0.5% and 1.0% complex polypeptide in diets improves growth performance, antioxidant ability, immune indices and hormone indices in serum, and the supplementation of 0.5% complex polypeptide increases the number of Lactobacillus and decreases the number of Escherichia coli in intestinal tract.
