abstract

the aim of this study was to determine feasibility of gamma irradiation in broiler chicks’ diet and scrutiny of productive performance of broiler due to gamma irradiated diets. there were 256 broiler chicks (male and female) from arian strain. experiment was statistically analyzed using balanced complete randomized design with four factors (including four irradiation doses: 0, 6.7, 7.7 and 8.7 kilogray) and four replicates in each treatment. the results showed that there were significant (p≤0.05) difference in body weight gain and feed intake between control and irradiated groups. there was no significant (p>0.05) difference in feed conversion ratio (fcr) between irradiated and control groups. statistical comparison for mortality rate indicated that there was no significant (p>0.05) difference between irradiated and control groups.

Growth performance of broiler chicks fed Aspergillus niger- fermented Terminalia catappa seed meal-based diet

Forty-five, day-old broiler chicks with an initial average weight of 30.25±2.40 g were divided into three groups of fifteen animals each. The first group was placed on soybean-based (control) diet; the second group on raw (unfermented) T. catappa seed meal-based diet; and the third on A. niger-fermented T. catappa seed meal-based diet, for seven (7) weeks. Feed intake, feed conversion ratio, av...

AIM Objective of this study was to investigate the effect of multicarbohydrases supplementation on performance of broilers fed low energy diet. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 75 days old chicks were selected and randomly divided into three treatments groups (T1, T2, and T3); each group contained 25 chicks distributed in five replicates of five chicks each. T1 group (positive control) was of...

Haematological Parameters of Broiler Chicks Fed Aspergillus niger - Fermented Terminalia catappa Seed Meal-Based Diet

The effect of Aspergillus niger-fermented Terminalia catappa seed meal-based diet on the haematological parameters of broiler chicks was studied. T. catappa seed meal was inoculated with A. niger spore suspension and incubated at room temperature for 3 weeks. Forty-five, day-old broiler chicks with an initial average weight of 30.25 ± 2.40 g were divided into three groups of fifteen animals eac...

Total Antioxidant Capacity and Malondialdehyde Level in Plasma of Broiler Chicks Fed Diet Containing Different Levels of Ginger (Zingiber officinale)

This study was conducted to assess the effect of ginger supplementation on malondialdehyde (MDA) level, as an oxidative stress marker, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in broiler chicks. Two hundred male 1-day-old chicks were assigned randomly to four dietary treatments (basal diet as control group and basal diet containing 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 g/kg ginger, respectively), with five replicates a...

Productive performance and histological features of intestinal mucosa of broiler chickens fed different dietary protein levels.

To evaluate the effect of decreasing dietary protein on growth performance, carcass traits, and intestinal mucosal morphometry, 180 female Hubbard strain broiler chickens were divided into 3 groups and fed 3 isoenergetic diets ad libitum from 14 d of age until slaughter age (49 d). The treatments varied according to 3 protein levels: high-protein diet (HiP, 22.5% CP, DM basis), medium-protein d...

Effects of Different Oils on Productive Performance of Broiler

Six hundred day old unsexed broiler chicks were used in a 42-d trial at Chittagong Veterinary and Animal Sciences University Poultry Farm to find out the effects of different oils on productive performance of broilers. The chicks were randomly distributed following a completely randomized design in four treatment groups having three replications per treatment. Each treatment had 150 birds, with...
