Probiotics have garnered increasing attention as a potential therapeutic approach for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Previous studies confirmed that Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis MN-Gup (MN-Gup) could stimulate the secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in NCI-H716 cells, but whether has hypoglycemic effect on T2DM vivo remains unclear. In this study, mouse model was constructed, with high-fat diet and streptozotocin mice, to investigate diabetes. Then, different doses (2 ×...
Maintaining optimum temperature during freeze-drying is crucial to ensuring the viability of strains. In this study, we evaluated effect pre-freezing, sublimation and desorption temperatures on Bifidobacterium longum BB68S (BB68S). Moreover, examined water content, activity, enzyme activities, scanning electron microscope explore mechanisms underpinning viability. Our analyses revealed highest survival rates collected after pre-freezing drying at -40 °C (94.9 ± 2.2%) -10 (65.4 3.8%),...
Background: Organic acid as a green feed additive is increasingly favoured by enterprises and scholars, but little emphasis has been placed on the effect of organic acids broiler meat quality. Methods: A total 192 male chicks (one-day-old, weighted 48.40 ± 0.64 g) were selected to investigate mixed (MOA) growth performance, quality well fatty profile. Chicks randomly allocated three treatments with eight replicates per replicate, including corn-soybean basal diet 0 (CON), 3000 mg/kg (low...
Background: The study aimed to explore the effect of mulberry leaf powder (MP) on performance, serum metabolites and antioxidant property, as well intestinal health, weaned piglets. A total 120 healthy piglets weighing 8.43 ± 1.91 kg (Duroc × (Landrace Yorkshire); at 28 d) were chosen classified into four treatments with three replicates 10 each based a randomized complete block design (barrow:gilt = 1:1). diet corn–soybean meal basal added 0% (Ctrl), 2% (MP_2), 4% (MP_4) 6% MP (MP_6),...
Our experiment was to detect the effects of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25OHD3) on antioxidant capacity, immune status and gut health broilers under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge. In total, 108 male Arbor Acre (48.5 ± 0.4 g) were allotted three treatment groups containing six replicates for each group with birds per replicate: (1) corn-soybean basal diet + injection sterile saline (CON group); (2) an LPS (LPS (3) 50 μg/kg 25OHD3 25-D group). At end experiment, intraperitoneally injected...
A total of 240 1-day-old Arbor Acres male broilers were randomly divided into five dietary treatments (control feed (CON), supplemented with 75 mg/kg aureomycin (ANT), 7.5 × 108 CFU/kg (Ba1) and 2.5 109 (Ba1), (Ba3) Bacillus amyloliquefaciens TL106, respectively) to investigate the probiotic effect TL106 instead antibiotics in broilers. On days 1−21, average daily gain Ba groups was increased compared CON group (p < 0.05). In addition, feed/gain ratio lower than that ANT on 22−42 1−42...
Background: The purpose of the research was to investigate effect mulberry leaf powder (MP) varying levels on growth performance, immuno-antioxidant status, meat quality and intestinal health. A total 120 healthy finishing pigs (Duroc × [Landrace Yorkshire], 72.2 ± 4.8 kg) were selected for this experiment divided into four treatments, according randomized complete block design, with three replicates 10 each (barrow:gilt = 1:1). dietary treatments as follows: (1) Ctrl, corn-soybean meal...
The present study was to explore the Ile requirement of piglets fed 18% crude protein (CP) diets. Two hundred and fifty 28-day-old Duroc × Landrace Yorkshire (8.37 ± 1.92 kg) were randomly divided into 5 dietary treatments (10 per replicate, barrows gilts replicate) with 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65% standardized ileal digestible (SID) Ile-to-Lys ratios, SID Lys formulated 1.19%. experimental design consisted two phases (d 1 14 d 15 28). Results showed that average daily gain (ADG) had a tendency...
