Abstract

Quercetin is one of the most widely distributed flavonoids compounds in nature. It possesses many biological activities, including anti-microbial activity, antioxidation and anti-obesity, which shows a great research and practical application values in antibiotic-free breeding. This paper reviews the structure, physical and chemical properties, nutritional physiological functions and preliminary application of quercetin in animal production, which would provide scientific basis for its feeding research.
