چکیده مقاله :
The effect of maternal B complex vitamin injection on goats and their offspring was investigated in 40 pregnant Sannen goats during the transition period. The goats were randomly divided into two groups (3 years old): control group (without B complex vitamins injection); B complex vitamin group (5 mL B com-plex vitamins injection per goat). The B complex vitamins group were injected twice intramuscularly into goats, according to the manufacturer's recommendation, during five- and three-weeks prior kidding. Ac-cording to the results, the production of colostrum and milk, as well as dry matter intake, were raised in the B complex vitamins group compared to the control group (P<0.05). The composition of colostrum and milk, as well as milk fatty acids, were not affected by the experimental treatments. The digestion of dry matter and fiber insoluble in neutral detergent in the group injected with B complex vitamins was higher (P<0.05) compared to the control group during prepartum and postpartum. The levels of B complex vita-mins increased in the plasma of goats and their kids by maternal B complex vitamins injection than in the control group during the transition period (P<0.05). Higher (P<0.05) levels of low-density lipoprotein, very-low-density lipoprotein, and glucose, as well as lower (P<0.05) levels of cholesterol and high-density lipo-protein, were observed in goats injected with B complex vitamins than in the control group. However, blood plasma biochemical parameters didn’t affect by maternal B complex vitamins injection in newborn kids. These results suggest that B complex vitamin injection is recommended for optimal pregnant goats.
