Popis: The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of the supplementation of organic acids (AO) on the productive parameters of guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus). Eighty male guinea pigs were randomly distributed in 20 experimental units, and these randomly assigned to five treatments: T1: Control (basal diet), T2: Growth Promoter Antibiotic (APC) (basal diet plus 200 ppm Zinc-Bacitracine), T3, T4, and T5: Organic acids (AO) (basal diet plus 100, 200 or 300 ppm respectively, of a mixture of acetic, lactic, and propionic acid in equal proportions). The basal diet was composed of wheat bran and fodder (rye grass plus clover). The animals were exposed to the treatments over 10 weeks. Body weight gain, dry matter intake, and feed conversion ratio (ICA) were evaluated. Significant quadratic response patterns to the AO were observed in body weight gain and ICA (p
