Dietary addition of Humulus scandens improved the intestinal barrier in rabbits

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Humulus scandens (HS) in diet on the production performance and intestinal barrier of rabbits. One hundred and sixty Laiwu black rabbits at 35 days of age with body weight of 692.5 ± 48.3 g were divided into four groups (five replicates per group...

Zusammenfassung:This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Humulus scandens (HS) in diet on the production performance and intestinal barrier of rabbits. One hundred and sixty Laiwu black rabbits at 35 days of age with body weight of 692.5 ± 48.3 g were divided into four groups (five replicates per group and eight rabbits per replicate): fed on a basal diet free of HS (control), 4%, 8% or 12% HS powder supplement. The results showed that the dietary addition of HS decreased the ADFI, F/G, diarrhoea ratio and mortality ratio. Besides, the final body weight and ADG (P
