Growth performance in laboratory rats in relation to addition of milk thistle pressed parts or mycotoxin contaminated feed ration

Original language description

Growth performance is affected by many different factors and this impact can be positive or negative. The presence of mycotoxins in feedstuff count among negative factors, at the same time mycotoxins damage health status, especially liver. Liver have essential importance in metabolism and detoxification of organism. Experimental design was focused on comparison of three types of diet. The first type of diet was barley monodietus intendent for control group, the second type of diet was addition of milk thistle pressing parts, that is known for its hepatoprotective effect (content of active substance - silymarin was 26.2 g/kg), and the third type of diet was addition of barley contaminated by mycotoxins (content of DON was 9634 µg/kg and ZEN was 2192 µg/kg). Groups with part of mouldy barley and milk thistle pressing parts on top of that were invited based on content. The experiment was tested by 25 pieces of laboratory rats invited into 5 groups. The rats in group 1 (G1) were classified like the control and were fed only scraped barley, in group 2 (G2) and 3 (G3) fed with addition of milk thistle pressing parts (part of milk thistle in G2 was 10% and in G3 was 20%) and in group 4 (G4) and 5 (G5) fed with part of mouldy barley (part of mouldy barley in G4 was 30% and in G5 was 60%). Will the addition of milk thistle pressing parts increase growth performance in young laboratory rats and will the presence of mycotoxins (DON, ZEN) have decreasing influence on growth performance compared among groups? Among these groups were discovered statistically significant differences. Higher average daily gains were occurred in groups fed with addition of milk thistle pressing parts and opposite lower average daily gains were occurred by groups fed with part of mouldy barley.
