Effects of Mannanoligosaccharide on Intestinal Microflora of Weaned Pigs

Yue Wen

Abstract

Forty eight 35 d old weaned pigs were divided into two groups randomly. The control group was fed with basic diet, the other group was fed with 0.5% Mannanoligoasccharide+basal diet. Six piglets of each group were selected on 42 d old to measure the caecal and colonic microflora population and PH. The result showed that caecal and colon E.coli concentration of MOS group was lower (P0.05) than that of the control group; caecal lacroacilli and bifidobacteria concentration were higher (P0.05), but colon lacroacilli and bifidobacteria concentration had no significant difference (P0.05) in contrast with the control group.
