    Short-term alteration in voluntary feed intake after selenium supplementation in Angora goat kids

    The objective of this study was to examine the effect of selenium (Se) supplementation on voluntary feed intake in Se-deficient Angora goat kids and its temporal relationship to alterations in the concentrations of thyroid hormones in plasma and the activity of glutathione peroxidase in serum. Angora goat kids were fed pelleted lucerne with a Se concentration of 20 mu g/kg of dry matter (DM) and treated orally with either Se (0.1 mg/kg of liveweight weekly, as sodium selenate) or deionised water. Supplementation with Se had no effect on DM intake measured over 21 days. Serum activity of glutathione peroxidase was increased by Day 1 of treatment (P < 0.001), plasma concentration of thyroxine was decreased by Day 21 of treatment (P < 0.01), and plasma concentration of triiodothyronine was unaffected by treatment. It is concluded that increased appetite is unlikely to be the primary mechanism involved in the response to Se supplementation in Angora goats.PT: J; CR: *SAS I INC, 1988, SAS US GUID STAT VER ARTHUR JR, 1993, AM J CLIN NUTR S, V57, P236 BUNK MJ, 1980, J NUTR, V110, P743 DONALD GE, 1993, AUST J EXP AGR ANIM, V33, P411 EWAN RC, 1976, J NUTR, V106, P702 HAFEMAN DG, 1974, J NUTR, V104, P580 HUSSEIN KSM, 1982, ACTA AGR SCAND, V23, P556 THOMPSON JN, 1969, J NUTR, V97, P335 THOMPSON KG, 1980, RES VET SCI, V28, P321 UNDERWOOD EJ, 1977, TRACE ELEMENTS HUMAN WALSH DM, 1993, INT J VITAM NUTR RES, V63, P188 WICHTEL JJ, 1995, IN PRESS J DAIRY SCI WICHTEL JJ, 1996, NEW ZEAL J AGR RES, V39, P111; NR: 13; TC: 1; J9: N Z J AGR RES; PG: 4; GA: UM341Source type: Electronic(1
