Litter parameters after newborn piglets peroral treatment with “Hokovit” immunomodulator preparations

Yeni doğan domuz yavrularında, doğal immunomodülatör uygulamasının, sütten kesim öncesi parametrelerine (mortalite oranı, sütten kesim oranı, canlı ağırlık artışı, sütten kesim ağırlığı) etkisi, Sırbistan’da ticari bir işletmede araştırıldı. Deneme grubundaki yavrulara (n=30), oral yolla, doğum sonrası 2 ila 6 saat içerisinde 2.5 mL One Shot immunomodulatör preparatı 24 saat sonrasında ise 1.2 mL Coloron Forte Plus immunomodulatör preparatı uygulandı. Doğum sonrası 7. günden, sütten kesime kadar olan dönemde yavrular, Piggy Guard Forte Plus immunomodulatör içeren başlangıç yemi (15 kgpreparat/ton) ile beslendiler. Kontrol grubundaki yavrulara (n=30) probiyotik uygulaması yapılmadı. Probiyotik uygulanan grupta, kontrol grubuna göre,yavrularda mortalite oranıdaha düşük seviyede tespit edildi (0.27 ve 0.53), (P

Yeni doğan domuz yavrularında oral ‘Hokovit’ immunomodulatör uygulamasının, sütten kesim öncesi parametrelere etkisi

Litter parameters (piglets mortality, weaned piglets per litter, piglet daily gain and body weight at weaning), after peroral treatment of newborn piglets with natural immunomodulator preparations, were investigated at one commercial pig farm in Serbia. Each piglet in 30 litters were peroral treated with 2.5 mL of One Shot immunomodulator preparation within 2 h to 6 h after farrowing, and 1.2 mL Coloron Forte Plus immunomodulator preparation 24 h after One Shot treatment. Starting at day 7 after farrowing up to weaning, piglets were fed the diet for suckling piglets, supplemented with Piggy Guard Forte Plus immunomodulator preparation (15 kg of preparation/t of diet). In the control group (n=30), piglets were not treated with probiotics. Piglets mortality were significantly (P<0.05) lower in the probiotics treated group than in the untreated (control) group (av. 0.27 vs. 0.53 dead piglets per litter, resp.). Average number of weaned piglets per litter was significantly (P<0.05) higher in the treated group (9.16), compared with the control group (8.97). Piglet body weight (av. 8.60 kg vs. 7.53 kg) and daily gain (av. 228 g vs. 193.8 g) from farrowing to weaning, were significantly (P<0.01) higher in the treated group. The results showed that newborn piglets treatment with immunomodulator preparations can decrease piglets mortality rate and increase their growth performance during suckling period.
