Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of sodium dehydroacetate on growth performance, serum biochemical parameters and blood routine parameters of weaned piglets. A total of 288 crossbred (Duroc×Landrace×Yorkshire) piglets were randomly divided into 4 groups, with 6 replicates per group and 12 piglets per replicate, according to the body weight and 1/2 of male and female principles, and the piglets weaned at the age of 23 days. The 4 groups were fed with a basal diet (control group), and the basal diet supplemented with 0.02% (group 1 of test), 0.10% (group 2 of test), 0.20% (group 3 of test) sodium dehydroacetate, respectively. The experiment lasted for 42 days. The results showed that when comparing with the control group: 1) aged from 23 to 52 days, the average daily gain and the average daily feed intake (ADFI) in group 3 of test were significantly decreased by 21.26% and 27.10% (P<0.01), respectively. The ratio of feed to gain (F/G) in group 3 of test was significantly increased by 11.59% (P<0.01). 2) The white blood cell (WBC) number of piglets aged of 52 days in group 3 of test was significantly increased by 43.46% (P<0.05). 3) The serum alanine transaminase (ALT) activity of piglets aged of 52 days in groups 2 and 3 of test was significantly decreased by 55.94% and 63.08% (P<0.01), respectively. The serum urea nitrogen (UN) concentration in groups 1 and 2 of test was significantly increased by 59.83% and 72.48% (P<0.05), and group 3 of test was significantly increased by 110.50% (P<0.01), respectively. The serum creatinine (CRE) concentration in groups 2 and 3 of test was significantly increased by 36.38% and 40.15% (P<0.01), respectively. The results indicate that there are some healthy risks to growth performance and some serum biochemical parameters of weaned piglets by using the high dosage sodium dehydroacetate in the diet.
