Zusammenfassung: | This study aimed to investigate the effects of sodium metabisulfite (SMBS) and SMBS-containing hydrogenated palm oil (HS) microparticles on the growth performance and intestinal barrier functions of weanling piglets challenged by deoxynivalenol (DON)-contaminated diets. Four corn-soybean-meal based diets were used: 1) negative control (NC, 0.00 mg/kg of DON); 2) positive control (PC, 3.3 mg/kg of DON); 3) SMBS (PST, 3.3 mg/kg of DON and 0.2% of SMBS); and 4) HS microparticles (HST, 3.3 mg/kg of DON and 0.45% of HS microparticles). Weaned piglets (n = 40) with similar body weights (BW; 8.22 ± 0.39 kg, 10 pigs/treatment) were fed for 28 d, including a 1-wk adjustment and 3 wk for exposure. Piglets subjected to the PC diet exhibited a noteworthy reduction in final BW by 13.3%, average daily gain (ADG) by 21.4%, and average daily feed intake (ADFI) by 20.1% compared with those on the NC diet (P < 0.05). Compared with the PC diet, the PST and HST diets increased by 6.76% and 4.31% in final BW (P < 0.05), 13.6% and 8.60% in ADG (P < 0.05), and 9.15% and 9.71% in ADFI (P < 0.05), respectively. No significant differences were detected in these values between the NC, PST, and HST diets (P > 0.05). There were no significant variations observed in the feed conversion ratio (FCR) among the four dietary treatments (P > 0.05). Feeding the PC diet to piglets led to a significant increase in the fecal score compared with the NC and HST diets (P < 0.05). No significant differences were detected in the mRNA expression levels of nutrient transporters and tight junction proteins among these four diets (P > 0.05). Additionally, compared with the NC diet, the PC diet significantly increased the mRNA abundance of Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4; P < 0.05); however, a decreased mRNA abundance of IL-8 and TNF-α was observed in the pigs fed the HST diet (P < 0.05), indicating that the encapsulated SMBS from the HS microparticles could have the potential to mitigate the effects of DON. Overall, adding 0.45% of HS microparticles to a 3.3 mg/kg DON-contaminated diet in piglets could maintain the growth performance, and using the HS microparticles revealed some potential in DON detoxification by reducing the gene expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines. |
