Evaluation of Salinomycin (Biocox®) effects on pig performance
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of the present studies was to evaluate the effects of salinomycin (Biocox®) on the piglet and growing-fattening pig performance. Forty-eight piglets and 40 growing pigs were used. Biocox® was included in the piglet feed at a level of 60 ppm and the observation period lasted for 35 days. In the feed for growing pigs Biocox® was included at 60 ppm during the first 14 days and at 30 ppm thereafter until the 71th day. The dietary antimicrobial supplements significantly improved the pig daily mean weight gain and feed conversion ratio.

Alternatives to Growth Promoters
In pig production, the terms "growth promoter", "performance enhancer", and "digestive enhancer" include a diverse range of products ranging from simple chemicals (copper salts) to chemically produced antibacterial compounds (carbadox) to antibiotics (tylosin, avilamycin, salinomycin, virginiamycin). Most of the antibiotic group are produced during a fermentation process by yeasts, moulds, and ...
