- Abstract
This study examined the effect of 1-monoglycerides and 1,2-diglycerides of butyric-, caproic- and caprylic acid (SILOHealth™ 104L [monoglycerides]), 2.5*105 CFU/g, Clostridium butyricum probiotic (probiotic) and avilamycin on grow-fin performance of day 5 Salmonella (S. enterica) challenged pigs fed corn/soy diets formulated to meet or exceed current NRC (2012) recommendations. A total of 96, Choice Genetics CG32, male pigs were used in a randomized complete block design with pen as the experimental unit, treatment as the fixed effect, and block as the random effect (3 pig/pen x 4 treatments x 8 replications). Pigs were orally dosed with 5x105 CFU/g, Salmonella enterica at day 5 (Se) of trial start. The treatment groups were: NC= Se; T1=NC + 80 ppm avilamycin. T2=NC+ 3 kg/MT monoglycerides, T3=NC+ 5 kg/MT monoglycerides, T4= 0.5 kg/MT probiotic and T5= 1.0 kg/MT probiotic. P < 0.05 was used to determine the level of significance. Least significant difference was used to compare means of treatment groups. T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 increased ADG versus NC at d28 (663, 868, 738, 834, 718 and 798 g, P < 0.05) and d77 (910, 1093, 1032, 1073, 966 and 1004 g, P < 0.05), decreased FCR at d77 (2.84, 2.73, 2.81, 2.75, 2.81 and 2.74, P < 0.05), and decreased fecal Salmonella, log 10 of CFU/g, at d77 (3.64, 2.13, 2.89, 2.66, 2.99 and 2.69, P < 0.05). Five kg of monoglycerides and 1.0 kg of probiotic performance, mortality and fecal Salmonella, log 10, were not significantly different than avilamycin at P < 0.05. In conclusion, the use of 1-monoglycerides and 1,2-diglycerides of butyric-, caproic- and caprylic acid and clostridium butyricum probiotic improved ADG, reduced FCR and reduced fecal Salmonella, log 10, at day 70 and were not significant different (P < 0.05) than avilamycin.
