[ Method] A total of 270 broilers at 1 day old were fed on the basic diets supplemented with TP and VE at different proportions. The malondialdehyde （MDA） content, total antioxidant capacity （T-AOC） as well as activities of superoxide dismutase （SOD） and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） were measured. The whole weight gain and feed conversion rate were also determined. [ Result] The broilers fed on TP and VE had remarkably higher serum activities of SOD and GSH-Px, stronger T-AOC and lower MDA content than the control ones. The best effects were achieved when the supplementary dosage of -rP and VE was respectively 60 and 80 mg/kg · Diet, because the experi- mental broilers had significantly higher antioxidant indices than the control ones （ P 〈 0.01 ）. Additionally, the boilers at the age of 21 or 42 days old had significantly higher body weight and lower feed conversion rate than the control ones （ P 〈 0.01 ）. [ Conclusion] The study provides a theoreti- cal basis for the applications of TP and VE in animal production.展开更多
