Abstract

This study investigated the effects of a traditional Chinese medicine formula (TCMF) on growth performance, and meat quality and fatty acid profiles of finishing pigs. Ninety 146-day-old Pietrain × Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire pigs (84.1 ± 0.86 kg BW) were assigned randomly to three treatments with five replicates, six pigs per pen. Control group was fed basal diet and the other two groups were fed basal diet plus different doses of the TCMF (TCMF1: 2.5 g/kg feed; TCMF2: 5 g/kg feed). Growth performance was unaffected by TCMF ( P > 0.05). Pigs fed the TCMF had higher crude fat content in muscle ( P P P P > 0.05). The concentration of vaccenic acid in longissimus dorsi and of total unsaturated fatty acids in abdominal adipose tissue were increased by TCMF1 ( P P
