Magnolol is a bioactive polyphenolic compound commonly found in Magnolia officinalis . The aim of this study is to clarify the contribution of the magnolol additive on the growth performance of Linwu ducklings aging from 7 to 28 d, comparing to the effects of antibiotic additive (colistin sulphate)....
