Abstract

Two pig trials were conducted to test Herb MixⓇ, a mixture of Rehmannia glutinosa, Angelica gigas, Discorea japonica, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Schisandra chinensis and Ligusticum jeholense, as a herbal additive to weaning pig diet. Exp. 1 was conducted with 45 three-way cross-bred(Y×L×D) weaning pigs randomly allocated to 3 treatments; control, Herb MixⓇ 0.15% and Herb MixⓇ Gold(Plellidendron amurense fortified Herb MixⓇ) 0.15%. Exp. 2 was conducted with 48 weaning pigs randomly allocated to 4 treatments; control, 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3% Herb MixⓇ. There was a significant(p=0.05) difference between the control and herbal additive groups, however, no significant difference was found between Herb MixⓇ and Herb MixⓇ Gold in growth performance of Exp. 1. In Ex. 2, supplementation of Herb MixⓇ at all level(0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3%) significantly(P<0.05) improved average daily gain and feed intake, however, there were no significant differences among supplemented groups. Among the blood parameters, serum IgG level and WBC numbers were significantly lowered by Herb Mix supplementation in both experiments. Stress indicator(SI) was significantly lower in herbal additive groups in Exp. 1. Nutrient digestibility of DM and NFE in supplemented groups was lower than the control in Exp. 1. Howener, it was not significantly different among treatments in Exp. 2. Number(cfu) of fecal E.coli decreased while that of Lactobacilli increased in treated groups. It was concluded that fortifying Herb MixⓇ with Plellidendron amurense was not effective in improving the efficacy of Herb MixⓇ and supplementation of Herb MixⓇ at 0.1~0.2% level improves growth performance of weaning pigs. Blood parameters especially immunity related ones(IgG, WBC and SI) were significantly influenced.

자돈 사료에 지황, 당귀, 작약, 감초, 오미자, 천궁으로 조제된 한방생약제제 Herb Mix(허브바이오 Co.)의 첨가가 생산성, 영양소 소화율, 분내 미생물균총 그리고 혈액성상에 미치는 영향을 검정하기 위해 총 4주간의 사양실험을 2차에 걸쳐 실시하였다. 1차 실험동물은 약 4주령 3원 교잡종(Y×L×D) 이유자돈 45두(거세돈)를 공시 하였으며 대조구, Herb Mix 0.15% 첨가구 그리고 Herb Mix Gold 0.15% 첨가구 등 3처리구에 처리당 5반복, 반복당 3두씩 대사케이지에 완전 임의로 배치하였다. 2차 시험은 1차와 같은 연령과 품종의 이유자돈 48두(거세돈)를 공시하였으며 대조구, Herb Mix 0.1%, 0.2% 그리고 0.3% 첨가구 등 4처리구에 처리구당 4반복, 반복당 3두씩 배치하였다. 1차 실험의 결과, 일당증체량은 한방제제 첨가구들이 대조구에 비해 유의하게(p<0.05) 개선되었으나 Herb Mix와 Herb Mix Gold 첨가구 사이에는 차이가 없었다. 2차 실험의 결과, 증체량과 사료 섭취량에 있어서 모든 첨가구가 대조구에 비해 유의적으로(P<0.05) 증가하였으나 첨가구들 사이에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 영양소 소화율에서는 1차 시험에서는 건물과 NFE에서 유의적으로(P< 0.05) 한방제제 첨가구들이 낮았으며 2차 시험에서도 유의적 차이는 보이지 않았으나 전체적으로 한방제제 첨가구들이 낮은 경향을 보였다. 혈청 IgG 함량과 WBC수는 1, 2차 시험 모두 대조구에 비해 한방제제 첨가구들이 모두 유의적으로(P<0.05) 감소하였으며 스트레스 지수(SI)도 감소하였다. 분 내 균총수는 1, 2차 실험 모두 E. coli 수는 한방제제 첨가구들이 유의하게 적었으며(P<0.05) Lactocbacilli 수는 유의적으로 증가하였다.
