Abstract: |
The study aimed to evaluate the effects of adding emulsified or nano- emulsified essential oil blend (garlic, pomegranate, tea tree essential oil), at the same level to weaned Mountain rabbits diet, on their growth performance, blood components, meat analysis, meat fatty acids and immunity indices. A total of forty-five weaned Mountain rabbits, were assigned randomly to 3 similar groups. Rabbits in the 1st group (T1, the control) were fed only concentrate feed mixture. The 2nd group (T2) and 3rd group (T3) were fed concentrate feed mixture supplemented with either 0.75 ml/kg diet emulsified, or 0.75 ml/kg diet nano- emulsified essential oil blend, respectively. Results of growth performance revealed that T2 and T3 recoded (P |
