Abstract:
To reveal the effects of N-carbamylglutamic(NCG)on growth performance,blood pa-rameters and meat quality of meat rabbits,192 Hyla rabbits at 35 days of age were assigned to four groups randomly with 0.00%,0.05%,0.10%,and 0.20%NCG added to the basal diet,with six replicates of eight rabbits in each group and one replicate of eight rabbits.The results indicated that:compared to the control group,the body weight of the 0.20%NCG group at d 35(P<0.01),the BW at d 14 and the average daily gain(ADG)from d 1 to 14 in the 0.05%NCG group(P<0.05)were significantly elevated;the ADG of the control group from d 1 to 35 was significantly lower than the 0.10%and 0.20%NCG groups(P<0.05).The levels of total superoxide dismutase(T-SOD)in the 0.10%NCG group(P<0.01),total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC)and urea nitro-gen(BUN)in the 0.20%NCG group(P<0.05)were significantly higher compared to the control group;the levels of T-SOD in the 0.10%NCG group were significantly elevated compared to the 0.05%NCG group(P<0.05).NCG significantly increased polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFA)and PUFA/SFA(P<0.05).The cooked meat rate of the longissimus lumborum in the 0.20%NCG group was significantly increased compared to the control group(P<0.01),while the water holding rate of the longissimus lumborum increased significantly in the 0.10%NCG groups(P<0.01)and the control group(P<0.05)and 0.05%NCG group(P<0.05)than the 0.20%NCG group.NCG significantly reduced the crypts depth(P<0.01)and had the tendency to in-crease the V/C value(P=0.067),while the villi height of jejunal in the 0.20%NCG group was significantly elevated compared to the control group(P<0.05).In conclusion,NCG could promote the growth performance,enhance the antioxidant capacity,and improve the intestinal morphology and meat quality of meat rabbits.The appropriate amount of NCG added to meat rabbit diet is 0.10%.
