Application of compound tranditional Chinese medicine feed additives in poultry production
In the background of a comprehensive ban on antibiotic feed additives,tranditional Chinese medicine feed additives for livestock and poultry gained significant attention.Adding compound tranditional Chinese medicine during the growth of poultry can promote nutrient absorption,improve production performance,reduce meat conversion ratio,egg conversion ratio,and improve the quality of meat and eggs,slaughtering performance such as dressing percentage,full-evisceration ratio,semi-eviscerated ratio,breast muscle percent,and so on,regulate immunity,increase immune organ index,promote immunoglobulin secretion,increase immune antibody levels and complement content,enhance antioxidant capacity by increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)and superoxide dismutase(SOD).Compound tranditional Chinese medicine feed additives can improve intestinal histomorphology,increase villus height and crypt depth,maintain intestinal homeostasis,regulate intestinal flora abundance,increase gut microbiota biodiversity,promote the enhancement of beneficial bacteria,and inhibit pathogen colonization.The main tranditional Chinese medicine used in the compound Chinese medicine formulation are Radix Glycyrrhiza,Radix Astragali and Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae.This paper aims to review on progresses in the functions and applications of compound tranditional Chinese medicine used in poultry production,and provides reference for the development and utilization of tranditional Chinese medicine feed additives.
