Abstract

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary isoflavone-S (ISO-S) supplementation in late gestation and lactation on reproductive performance, antioxidant capacity and immune function of sows. A total of 20 healthy full-grown binary sows were mated and divided into 2 groups with 10 sows per group and 1 sow per replicate according to the principle of body condition and parity balance. The control group was fed a basic diet, and the experimental group (ISO-S group) was fed the diet supplemented with 40 mg/kg ISO-S in the basic diet. The experiment was conducted on the day 75 of gestation and lasted until the end of weaning. The results showed as follows: compared with control group, 1) dietary supplemented with 40 mg/kg ISO-S significantly increased average daily feed intake (ADFI) of lactating sows (P < 0.05), and average daily gain (ADG) of piglets tended to be increased, but there were no significant differences in number of total piglets per litter, number of live piglets per litter, birth weight of individual piglets and average daily litter weight gain (P>0.05); 2) dietary supplemented with 40 mg/kg ISO-S significantly increased milk fat content in colostrum of sows (P < 0.05); 3) dietary supplemented with 40 mg/kg ISO-S significantly increased the contents of immunoglobulin A (IgA) and secretory immunoglobulin (SIgA) in colostrum of sows (P < 0.05); 4) dietary supplemented with 40 mg/kg ISO-S significantly increased total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), the activities of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione oxide enzyme (GSH-Px) in colostrum of sows (P < 0.05). Serum CAT activity of piglets at 14 days of age was significantly increased (P < 0.05). In conclusion, ISO-S supplementation in late gestation and lactation can improve the reproductive performance of sows and enhance the antioxidant capacity and immune function of sows and piglets.
