Abstract

An investigation was carried out to study the changes in certain blood biochemical constituents viz. blood glucose, total serum protein, blood urea nitrogen, blood cholesterol, serum calcium, serum inorganic phosphorus, serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) activities in thirty six crossbred (Hampshire X Assam local) finishing pigs of about 5–7 months age fed different levels of silk worm pupae meal replacing fish meal with or without supplementation of anizyme. Statistically there was no significant difference between the average values of all the blood constituents studied.
