Abstract

The purpose of this experiment was to find out the optimal vitamin E supplemental level in the diet of Jiangnan white goslings from 29 to 63 days of age by investigating the effects of different levels of vitamin E on the growth performance, immune capacity and antioxidant capacity of Jiangnan white goslings. A total of 240 healthy 28-day-old Jiangnan white goslings were selected and randomly divided into 6 groups with 5 replicates in each group and 8 goslings in each replicate. Based on the basis of corn-soybean meal diet, the vitamin E supplemental levels of groups were 0, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 80 mg/kg, respectively. The experimental period was 35 days. The results showed as follows:1) dietary vitamin E supplemental level had no significant effect on the body weight, average daily feed intake, average daily weight gain and feed to gain ratio of goslings from 29 to 63 days of age (P>0.05). 2) Vitamin E supplementation in diet could significantly reduce the content of cortisol in serum of goslings (P<0.05); based on the content of cortisol in serum, the optimal dietary vitamin E supplemental level estimated by broken line regression model for Jiangnan white goslings from 29 to 63 days of age was 19.33 mg/kg. 3) Compared with the control group, the diet supplemented 20 mg/kg vitamin E could significantly increase the content of immunoglobulin A in serum of goslings (P<0.05). The diet supplemented 20 and 40 mg/kg could significantly increase the content of immunoglobulin M in serum of goslings (P<0.05). 4) Vitamin E supplementation in diet could significantly increase the activity of catalase, glutathione peroxidase, total antioxidant capacity and reduce the content of malondialdehyde in serum and liver of goslings (P<0.05). Based on the content of malondialdehyde in serum and liver, the optimal dietary vitamin E supplemental levels estimated by broken line regression model for Jiangnan white gosling from 29 to 63 days of age are 12.37 and 21.73 mg/kg, respectively. In summary, the optimal dietary vitamin E supplemental level is 20 mg/kg.

Key words： vitamin E; Jiangnan white gosling; growth performance; immune capacity; antioxidant capacity
