Abstract

This experiment was conducted to study the effects of dietary vitamin E (VE) and selenium (Se) on the growth performance, nutrient digestibility and serum biochemical indices of growing minks. Sixty 70-day-old male standard dark minks with an average body weight of (1 030.64±85.50) g were randomly divided into 4 groups with 15 replicates per group and 1 mink per replicate. They were fed diets as follows:a basal diet (control group), the basal diet+200 mg/kg VE (50% DL-α-tocopheryl acetate as VE source, 50%) (VE group), the basal diet+0.2 mg/kg Se (glycine nano-selenium as Se source, 1%) (Se group), and the basal diet+200 mg/kg VE+0.2 mg/kg Se (VE+Se group). The experiment began on 14th July, 2017, and ended on 14th September, 2017. The results showed as follows:1) the average daily gain (ADG) was significantly increased and the feed/gain (F/G) was significantly decreased in VE and VE+Se groups compared with the control group (P<0.05). 2) The fat digestibility in VE+Se group was extremely significantly increased compared with the control group (P<0.01), but no significant difference was found between VE and Se groups (P>0.05). 3) The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in serum in VE+Se group were significantly or extremely significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), but had no significant difference compared with VE and Se groups (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, only adding VE or both adding VE and Se in diets extremely significantly decreased serum reactive oxygen level (P<0.01). 4) The serum immunoglobulin G level in VE+Se group was significantly higher than that in VE and Se groups (P<0.05), but had no significant difference compared with the control group (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, both adding VE and Se in diets significantly increased serum interleukin-2 level (P<0.05). Considering all the factors, both adding 200 mg/kg VE and 0.2 mg/kg Se in diets can improve the growth, increase the fat digestibility, and enhance the antioxidant capacity and immunity of growing minks under this experimental condition.
