Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary coated cinnamaldehyde on growth performance, slaughter performance, serum antioxidant indexes and jejunum morphology of meat ducks under high temperature in summer. A total of 360 twenty-one-day-old healthy Dayu ducks were randomly divided to 3 groups with 6 replicates per group and 20 ducks per replicate (males and females in half). Ducks in the control group l were fed a basal diet without antibiotic, ducks in the control group 2 were fed the basal diet supplemented with 100 mg/kg zinc bacitracin, and others in the experimental group were fed the basal diet supplemented with 200 mg/kg coated cinnamaldehyde. The experiment lasted for 42 days. The results showed as follows:1) the serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and villus height, villus height/crypt depth in jejunum of experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group 2 (P<0.05). 2) The ratio of feed to gain and serum malondialdehyde content of control group 1 were significantly higher than those of the experimental group (P<0.05), and the SOD and glutathione peroxidase activities, total antioxidant capacity in serum and villus height, villus height/crypt depth in jejunum of control group 1 were significantly lower than those of the experimental group (P<0.05). 3) There were no significant differences in indexes of other growth performance (initial body weight, final body weight, average daily gain, average daily feed intake), slaughtering performance (dressing percentage, eviscerated percentage, abdominal fat percentage and leg muscle percentage) and jejunum morphology (crypt depth) among three groups (P>0.05). In conclusion, dietary supplemented with 200 mg/kg coated cinnamaldehyde can alleviate the impact of heat stress on the growth performance, slaughter performance, antioxidant capacity and intestinal mucosa morphology of meat ducks.
