摘要:

目的 通过非线性分段回归模型,分析随环境温度逐渐升高,肉鸡体表、体核温度和呼吸频率开始升高时的环境温度,即拐点温度(IPT),估测肉鸡热中性区、热舒适区的上限温度。方法 试验选择21日龄AA肉鸡10只,饲养于人工环境控制舱内。舱内温度由18℃开始,每0.5 h升高1℃,至33℃维持0.5 h后,逐渐降至20℃,循环3 d。利用微型温度记录仪连续监测肉鸡体表和体核温度(每10min记录1次)。结果 经非线性分段回归分析,3次(天)估测出的肉鸡体表温度的拐点温度(IPTST)分别为21.18、21.09、21.13℃,平均21.13℃。肉鸡IPTST个体之间的变异较大,3次测定的变异系数分别为6.31、6.15、5.64;而同一只肉鸡3次估测的IPTST差别较小,10只鸡的变异系数平均为0.52,表明这种估测IPTST的方法重复性较好。肉鸡体核温度的拐点温度(IPTCT)3次测定的结果分别为27.80、27.98、27.67℃,平均27.82℃。个体之间IPTCT的变异系数为2.82、2.75、2.78,而同只肉鸡3次估测的IPTCT变异较小,平均变异系数为0.90,表明这种估测IPTCT的方法重复性较好。肉鸡呼吸频率的拐点温度(IPTRR)3次测定的结果分别为28.42、29.52、29.25℃,平均29.06℃。由于肉鸡在高温环境下喘息并非持续发生,本试验呼吸频率的测定时间过短(每个温度下每只鸡测定了1 min),造成部分肉鸡测定的呼吸频率过低,导致估测的IPTRR偏高。结论 根据热中性区的定义,3—4周龄肉鸡热舒适区上限温度即为IPTST(21.13℃),而热中性区上限温度应低于IPTCT(27.82℃)。

Abstract:

【Objective】 The present study was conducted to measure the variations of surface temperature (ST), core temperature (CT) and respiratory rate (RR) of broilers with increasing ambient temperature (AT), and analyze these data with a broken-line model to determine the inflection point temperature (IPT, the certain AT above which the body temperature or RR of the broilers started to change). 【Method】 Ten AA broilers (21 days old) were raised in one controlled climate chamber. The AT of chamber was increased gradually by one degree per 0.5 h from 18℃ to 33℃, and then gradually decreased to 20℃. The CT and ST of broilers, as well as the AT in the chamber were recorded at 10 min intervals using mini temperature data loggers. The experiment was repeated three times on three days. 【Result】 The IPT based on ST (IPTST) for three consecutive days were 21.18, 21.09 and 21.13℃, average 21.13℃. The variation coefficients of IPTST between individual broilers was 6.13, 6.15 and 5.64 for three measurements, the variation coefficient of IPTST between three measurements was 0.52% on average, indicating that the method of estimating IPTST was better repeatable. The IPT based on CT (IPTCT) for three consecutive days were 27.80, 27.98 and 27.67℃, with an average of 27.82℃. The variation coefficients of IPTCT between individual broilers was 2.82, 2.75, 2.78 for three measurements, the variation coefficient of IPTST between three measurements was 0.90% on average, indicating that the method of estimating IPTCT was better repeatable. The IPT based on RR (IPTRR) for three consecutive days were 28.42, 29.52 and 29.25℃, with an average of 29.06℃. Since the panting of broilers is intermittent, the respiratory of broilers under high temperature maybe normal during the period of RR measurement (only 1 min per chick), which maybe result in an under-estimated the RR, and an over-estimated IPTRR of some broilers. 【Conclusion】 According to the definition of the thermal neutral zone, the upper limit temperature of the thermal neutral zone of 3-4 weeks old broilers should be lower than IPTCT (27.82℃), and the upper limit temperature of thermal comfort zone is IPTST (21.13℃).
