Effect of fermented sausage using oat bran fat analog production on organ tissues in rats

Objective:The effect of fermented sausage using oat bran fat analog production(OBFS)and traditional fermented sausage(TFS)on organ tissues in rats was to be investigated. Methods:A total of 119 healthy SD rats(70±2) g were randomly divided into 7 groups. The rats were fed with 0% OBFS and TFS(Control group)in the basal diet and 5% TFS,5% OBFS,10% TFS,10% OBFS,20% TFS and 20% OBFS. At 9 weeks,the rat’s dirty body,liver fat content and liver pathology slices were observed. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the ratio of heart,liver,spleen,kidney,testis and body weight of 5%,10%,20% TFS group and 5%,10%,20%OBFS group compared with control group(p>0.05). The content of liver fat of 5%,10%,20%OBFS group was lower than 5%,10%,20%TFS group,there was no significant difference(p>0.05). Histopathological results showed that 5%,10%,20% TFS group and 5%,10% OBFS group caused different degrees of damage to the liver of rats except 20% OBFS group. Conclusion:The fermented sausage can’t hurt the rat organs that heart,liver,spleen,kidney and testis. Compared with TFS,OBFS could protect rats from fatty liver and normal when the 20% OBFS was added.
