| Abstract | The present study was undertaken to ascertain the health-promoting effects of a phytoadditive (PA) having confirmed in vitro antimethanogenic potential. The PA was prepared by mixing fixed proportions of Withania somnifera, Boerhavia diffusa and Holarrhena antidysenterica. Eighteen Jamunapari kids of three months of age were used in a 180-day study. The kids were divided into three equal groups and supplemented with the PA at 0 (PA-0), 1.5 (PA-1.5) and 2.5 (PA-2.5) percent of expected mean daily feed (DM) intake. A metabolism trial conducted following 180-days of feeding trial indicated no variations (P > 0.05) in intake and digestibility of organic nutrients. The plane of nutrition and nitrogen retention was also similar (P > 0.05) across the treatments. Blood collected at 30-days intervals was assessed for erythrocytic antioxidants and metabolic indices. The PA improved (P < 0.05) the erythrocytic lipid peroxidation, and activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase. The serum levels of glucose, urea, total protein, globulin and alanine aminotransferase remained similar (P > 0.05) among the groups, whereas serum levels of albumin were improved (P < 0.05) in the PA-supplemented groups with a reverse trend (P < 0.05) for total cholesterol. The serum aspartate aminotransferase activity was reduced (P < 0.05) in both the PA-groups. The dietary treatments imparted no difference (P > 0.05) on the average daily gain (g) which was 35 ± 4.0, 31 ± 3.4 and 34 ± 4.0 for the PA-0, PA-1.5 and PA-2.5 groups, respectively. The feed conversion ratio was also comparable across the dietary groups. Overall, it is concluded that while the dietary supplementation of the PA had no influence on the nutrient metabolism or growth, it did stimulate the antioxidant status of growing kids and thus possess potential to be of practical value in stressful management situations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
