Abstract

This experiment was conducted to study the effects of dietary zinc level on growth performance and serum biochemical indices of growing minks. Seventy five 60-day-old healthy male minks were randomly divided into 5 groups with 15 replicates per group and 1 mink per replicate. Minks in the 5 groups were fed the experimental diets supplemented with 0 (group Ⅰ), 50 (group Ⅱ), 100 (group Ⅲ), 300 (group Ⅳ) and 600 mg/kg (group Ⅴ) zinc, respectively. There was a 7-day adaptation period and a 60-day experimental period. The results showed as follows: 1) there was no significant difference in body weight among all groups at 60, 75, 90, 105 and 120 days of age (P>0.05); the average daily gain in groups Ⅲ, Ⅳ and Ⅴ was significantly higher than that in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ during 76 to 90 days of age (P<0.05), the average daily gain in group Ⅲ was significantly higher than that in groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅴ during 106 to 120 days of age (P<0.05). 2) The serum albumin content in group Ⅳ was significantly higher than that in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P<0.05), the serum total protein and globulin contents in group Ⅳ were significantly higher than those in groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅴ (P<0.05), the serum immunoglobulin A content in group Ⅳ was significantly higher than that in groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P<0.05), the serum immunoglobulin G content in group Ⅳ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅴ (P<0.05), there was no significant difference in serum immunoglobulin M content among all groups (P>0.05). 3) The serum urea nitrogen content in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in groups Ⅲ, Ⅳ and Ⅴ (P<0.05), the serum aspartate amino transferase and alanine aminotransferase activities in groups Ⅲ and Ⅳ were significantly higher than those in groups Ⅰ and Ⅴ (P<0.05). 4) The serum alkaline phosphatase activity in groups Ⅲ and Ⅳ was significantly higher than that in groups Ⅰ and Ⅴ (P<0.05), there was no significant difference in serum lactic acid dehydrogenase activity among all groups (P>0.05). 5) The serum zinc content in group Ⅴ was significantly higher than that in other groups (P<0.05), the serum phosphorus content in group Ⅴ was significantly lower than that in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P<0.05), there was no significant difference in serum calcium content among all groups (P>0.05). In conclusion, dietary supplemented with 100 mg/kg zinc can improve the growth performance of growing minks. Dietary supplemented with 300 mg/kg zinc can get the highist protein metabolism related indices contents and zinc related enzyme activities, and it can be propitious to improve the immunity of minks.
