White New Zealand rabbits performance fed phosphorus sources containing high fluoride content
Abstract
Deleterious effects of fluoride content from eight different phosphates were investigated using 30 days white New Zealand young rabbits Oryctolagus cuniculus. Eight differents diet were formulated, each one using a different P source: calcinated bone meal, dicalcium phosphate, super triple phosphate, super simple phosphate, monoammonium phosphate, sulphur amonium phoshphate, ammoniated calcium polyphosphate and a bovine mineral supplement. The zootecnic parameters were followed during 42 days long. At the end of experiment, all animals were slaughtered and livers were collected and weighted. Animals receiving fluoride high level contents (phosphate of amonium and surphur, and bovine mineral salt) have shown the worst results of weight gain feed intake and feed conversion.Downloads
