Abstract

The effect of direct-feed microbial (DFM) treatment on body weight, serum biochemical indexes, serum immunoglobulins, and serum cytokines was studied. The study was a completely randomized design with 20 growing females Beichuan white goats, weighing 25.11 ± 1.96 kg, divided into two groups of 10 goats per treatment. Goats were offered (1) 10 mL saline solution (Control group) (2) or 10 mL microbials solution (DFM group) on days 0 and 7 for two times. No effect on final body weight and body size was observed between DFM and control group (
