Abstract
The present study was carried out to evaluate the influence of different taste feed additives on feed intake and growth performance in Alpine × Beetal growing goats. For this, a 90-day growth trial was conducted on 36 growing goats of 3–4 months age which were divided into six groups of six animals each. Animals in all groups were fed individually to meet the requirement for both maintenance and growth as per ICAR 2013. Individual taste feed additives were added in their concentrate mixture of total mixed ration (TMR) as food-grade sucrose (sweet) at the rate of 75 g/kg DM (SWE), NaCl (salt) at the rate of 15 g/kg DM (SAL), food-grade citric acid (sour) at the rate of 10 g/kg DM (SOU), urea (bitter) at the rate of 5 g/kg DM (BIT) and food-grade monosodium glutamate (umami) at the rate of 10 g/kg DM (UMA). The study revealed significantly higher (p < 0.01) average dry matter intake (DMI) (kg/day) in SWE (0.541 ± 0.034) and SAL (0.560 ± 0.041) groups compared to CON (0.476 ± 0.039). Average daily body weight gain (g/d/animal) was significantly higher (p < 0.01) in sweet and salt taste-supplemented groups compared to control. Body measurements including heart girth, withers height, body length and hip height were similar among six treatments. Feed conversion efficiency (kg live weight gain/100 kg DMI) and feed conversion ratio (kg DMI/kg live weight gain) were unaffected due to taste supplementation. While supplementation of sweet taste increased the digestibility of NDF and ADF, sweet- and salt-supplemented groups increased DCP as well as TDN intake. It was concluded that addition of sweet and salt taste in TMR had a positive impact on feed intake and growth performance in growing goats.
期刊介绍:
Flavour and Fragrance Journal publishes original research articles, reviews and special reports on all aspects of flavour and fragrance. Its high scientific standards and international character is ensured by a strict refereeing system and an editorial team representing the multidisciplinary expertise of our field of research. Because analysis is the matter of many submissions and supports the data used in many other domains, a special attention is placed on the quality of analytical techniques. All natural or synthetic products eliciting or influencing a sensory stimulus related to gustation or olfaction are eligible for publication in the Journal. Eligible as well are the techniques related to their preparation, characterization and safety. This notably involves analytical and sensory analysis, physical chemistry, modeling, microbiology – antimicrobial properties, biology, chemosensory perception and legislation.
The overall aim is to produce a journal of the highest quality which provides a scientific forum for academia as well as for industry on all aspects of flavors, fragrances and related materials, and which is valued by readers and contributors alike.
