Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of supplementation of dietary betaine on nutrient digestibility and physiological responses in finishing pigs. A total of twelve pigs with a body weight of $80.1{\pm}3.7kg$ were individually caged, and randomly assigned to one of the two experimental diets containing 0 (control) or 5 g/kg (treatment) of the betaine in a $2{\times}2$ Latin square design. The experimental period was 14 days-7 days adaptation and 7 days trial period-per phase. All data for the difference between control and treatment groups were statistically analyzed by student's t-test. Dry matter and crude protein digestibility in the treatment group were significantly improved by 1% and 1.3%, respectively, as compared with those in the control (p<0.05). The apparent absorption of dietary energy was increased from 82.3% to 83.7% by dietary betaine supplementation. Thus, the retention of energy was also significantly increased to above 6% in the treatment group compared with the control group (control 4,057 vs treatment 4,314 kcal; p<0.01). The physiological parameters indicating serum biochemical contents and stress-, immune-, and inflammatory- responses were not changed by the supplementation of dietary betaine. In conclusion, dietary betaine improves the nutrient digestibility without any negative effects in terms of physiology in finishing pigs. It suggests that the supplementation of dietary betaine may increase the productivity through the improvement of weight gain and feeding efficiency.

본 연구는 사료 내 비테인의 첨가 급여 시 비육돈의 영양소 소화율 및 생리학적 반응을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. 평균 체중 $80.1{\pm}3.7kg$의 거세 숫퇘지 12두를 개별 대사케이지에 공시하였다. 시험사료는 비육돈의 영양소 요구량을 충족하는 시판사료를 기초 대조구 시험사료로 하였으며, 기초사료에 0.5%의 비테인을 첨가한 사료를 처리구 사료로 이용하였다. 시험디자인은 $2{\times}2$ Latin square 법으로 설계하여 각 Phase 당 7일간 순치기간과 7일간의 시험기간을 두었다. 분석에서 얻어진 결과들에 대하여 처리구간의 통계적 유의성은 student' t-test을 이용하여 검정하였다. 영양소 소화율을 조사한 결과, 비테인 첨가 급여에 의해 건물 및 단백질의 외관상 소화율이 통계적으로 유의하게 각각 1%와 1.3%가 개선되는 것으로 관찰되었다(p<0.05). 에너지 이용율을 조사한 결과에서도 에너지의 외관상 소화율이 82.3%에서 83.7%로 비테인 급여에 의해 증가되었으며(p<0.05), 이로 인하여 체내 에너지 retention도 약 6% 이상 (대조구 4,057 vs 처리구 4,314 kcal; p<0.01) 유의하게 증가되는 것으로 관찰되었다. 혈중 생화학 성분 및 스트레스 호르몬, 면역단백질, 전염증성 사이토카인을 분석한 결과에서는 비테인 급여에 의한 유의한 영향은 관찰되지 않았다. 요약하자면, 육성돈 사료 내 비테인의 첨가급여는 생리적으로 부정적인 영향 없이 영양소 소화율 및 에너지 이용성 개선에 유의한 효과를 가지며, 이것은 증체량 및 사료효율을 개선하여 생산성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 가능성을 시사한다.
